LA steps up from a 19 year playoff slump

As if the story wasn't a bludgeoned, rotting, horse, but this team is on fire, and it just needed that much more attention. After game 4, with the Canucks, there was a slight struggle, but they learned from that and came back even stronger. St. Louis was a little sad, but Quick is just, well, Captain America. Phoenix, however, should be a much more competitive team. They aren't there on the ice, their key players aren't producing and it seems that ridiculous penalties are just an attempt to come back. (Boarding of Shane Doan anyone?) Not to mention Dustin Brown, he scores goals, he plays defense, he hits like a horse, he's just as Dean said on Greg Wyshynski's podcast, a Rockstar. Maybe not the level that Wayne Gretzky was back in the 80s, but definitely a keystone in L.A.'s game plan.
