The Los Angeles Kings Have Lost The Stanley Cup-Winning Puck
No one could blame the Los Angeles Kings for losing track of anything in the immediate delirium that accompanies the clinching of the franchise's first Stanley Cup, but if there's one thing you're going to want to keep dibs on in the aftermath, it would be the whereabouts of the final puck.

What The Kings' Stanley Cup Celebration Looked Like From Inches Away
Having a front-row seat during the Stanley Cup-clinching Game 6 was surely a treat for any Kings fan inside the Staples Center, but one lucky guy had his videocam running as the celebratory huddle made its way to the boards and within inches of his face.

The Devils Had A Grand Old Time At The Clubs After Their Game 6 Loss

L.A. Kings Win Stanley Cup; "Mavs Win!" Proclaims NBC Sports
The L.A. Kings are the best team in the NHL, but those poor souls just can't catch a break when it comes to people actually knowing who the hell they are. First there was the case of the mistaken logo, an abysmal highlight package, and then a misidentification of the team's mascot....

Tonight No One Will Remember Hockey, Not Just Los Angeles

Kings Coach Darryl Sutter Doesn't Understand Your Question, Sir
It's almost as if Los Angeles Kings coach Darryl Sutter would've preferred hoisting the Stanley Cup tonight rather than fielding inane questions that both misidentify and mispronounce players' names.
