FANTASTIC AND DYNASTIC
THE LOS ANGELES KINGS WERE UNKILLABLE en route to their second Stanley Cup in three years, coming back from a 3-0 series deficit, winning seven elimination games and prevailing in three overtime contests in the final. “We’re like cockroaches,” said playoff hero Alec Martinez, “we just don’t go away.” Coach Darryl Sutter has combined a puck-possession offense with an incessantly swarming defense that has brought Los Angeles two Cups in three years and put the big, fast and deep Kings on the brink of a cap-era dynasty.

Sure, Los Angeles will once again be a favorite, but the Hawks boast an amazing core that is up to any challenge…
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
IT’S BEEN AN OFF-SEASON OF CHANGE for the Ottawa Senators, including another captain jumping ship. As the players headed their separate ways at the end of a disastrous season, captain Jason Spezza decided he couldn’t take it anymore and told GM Bryan Murray to send him packing. So in the hours before free agency kicked off, Murray made the best deal he could and sent Spezza to the Dallas Stars, with right winger Alex Chiasson being the key return in a package that also included respectable prospects Alex Guptill and Nick Paul. Murray wasn’t going to endure another off-season held hostage by the trade demands of a star player after the Dany Heatley saga in the summer of 2009. The Senators want to be a playoff team next season, but as they…
