I know how you feel...It's the first day of fall; the ambiance can't be more perfect if they light Staples Center via candlelight. Although I must admit I was sufficiently peeved that the team was to be split in two with half of them going to Kansas City. I was sure that, with the Kansas City game being a promo type environment, I was to see a loosely strung together group of rookies get their asses kicked by Phoenix. While the outcome may still be the same, the chances of it happening are not as great. The rosters will look a little like this:
At Staples Center:
2 -- Matt Greene
3 -- Jack Johnson
7 -- Derek Armstrong
11 -- Anze Kopitar
19 -- Kyle Calder
21 -- Denis Gauthier
23 -- Dustin Brown
24 -- Alexander Frolov
35 -- Jason LaBarbera
37 -- Thomas Hickey
41 -- Raitis Ivanans
46 -- Daniel Taylor
49 -- Peter Harrold
51 -- Oscar Moller
58 -- David Meckler
61 -- Trevor Lewis
63 -- Scott Parse
68 -- Brady Murray
71 -- Brian Boyle
76 -- Viatcheslav Voynov
At Kansas City:
8 -- Matt Ellis
15 -- Brad Richardson
26 -- Michal Handzus
28 -- Jarret Stoll
32 -- Jonathan Quick
33 -- Kevin Westgarth
34 -- Marty Murray
36 -- Jeff Zatkoff
42 -- Tom Preissing
43 -- Joe Piskula
44 -- Davis Drewiske
52 -- Gabe Gauthier
53 -- Alec Martinez
54 -- Ted Purcell
56 -- Richard Clune
57 -- Wayne Simmonds
67 -- Marc-Andre Cliche (won't play)
70 -- Matt Moulson
73 -- John Zeiler
79 -- Colten Teubert
80 -- Drew Doughty
Perhaps it's the 'gentle giant' look in his profile picture...
I just hope that Zeus turns things around this year. I mean, you can't be too mad at him; he was right there, in terms of short-handed goals, with Patty O. I do love a short-handed goal. Here's to hoping that he gets out of that category that the coaching staff clearly feels he belongs in.

I feel robbed. We get Kopi, JJ and Babs and Kansas City gets Zeiler and Ellis. Why are all of the superstars going to Kansas City? Hahahaha! I laugh in the face of AEG! AHA-HAHA! What I am genuinely upset about is that Handzus is going there. Don't you dare lump him up with them! Okay, he had a bad, bad, bad year. Okay, we paid him big, big, big money. I still have faith in him though, I don't know why, but I feel the need to defend him.
