Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith was suspended one game by the NHL's Department of Player Safety Wednesday for his high-stick on Kings center Jeff Carter Tuesday night.
While the Blackhawks are just two wins away from the Stanley Cup Final, they've in large part made it to where they are without Patrick Kane.
When Duncan Keith reached down to pick up his glove, Kings center Jeff Carter hit him in the hand with his stick. What happened next, Keith is claiming was an accident.
The Blackhawks' series lead has been trimmed to 2-1 with another game at the Staples Center -- where the Kings have now won 15 straight -- Thursday night.
Slava Voynov had a goal and an assist, Jonathan Quick made 19 saves, and the Los Angeles Kings beat Chicago 3-1 in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals on Tuesday night, trimming the Blackhawks' series lead to 2-1.
Down 2-0, do the Kings play it safe or get aggressive in the Blackhawks' zone?
he Blackhawks are looking fast and shaggy like so many others on the hockey playoff ice.
But here's the news flash for the Kings. They're not going to win at home in Game 3 unless they play a lot better at the Staples Center than they did at the United Center.
The Los Angeles Kings have been in all types of jams during the past two postseasons. Just a few weeks ago, they even escaped the same 0-2 deficit they're now facing in the Western Conference finals.
Before the start of the Western Conference Finals between the Chicago Blackhawks and Los Angeles Kings, mayor Rahm Emanuel posted a letter on his Facebook page to Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
