Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
Do you agree with my take on the Kings being nicknamed "Flyers West?" Sound off.

If anything, the Flyers should be called "Kings East" at this point.

Re: Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
Never heard of such a thing in 40 years of hockey.
Re: Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
Neither have I, is this a made up thing? Or is it something 'the kids' are saying these days?
Re: Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
First time I've ever heard the term... and I've heard a lot of shit lol
Re: Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
Funny thing, in their shorter history the Kings now have as many total Cups as the Flyers.
Don't really see where this term came from, is it because Carter and Richards use to play there or is it a reach to group the two teams due to the "physical" nature they both play. I see Boston as being the team in the East that is more similar to LA.
Flyers = Kings Wannabes?
Re: Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
They both entered the league in the original expansion so their history is equal.
Re: Stop Calling The Los Angeles Kings "Flyers West"
Yeah, they're both 1967 expansion teams: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1967_NHL_expansion
California Seals, LA Kings, Minnesota North Stars, Philadelphia Flyers, Pittsburgh Penguins, St. Louis Blues.

My bad, I guess it's a tie, Bobby Clarke 2 = Mike Richards 2.
