If the truth is somewhere in between all those points, let's try to put a bow on the 2009-10 campaign once and for all...with a partial tribute to the season that was.
Along with a special 'thank you' to the numerous guests that graciously donated their time this year for interviews...we proudly look back at 10 Tidbits from the past 10 months...
1. October 2009 - The Mayor's predictions on where the Kings would finish and why, it's all right here...in special correspondent Jim Fox's first High / Low article, he calls out Drew Doughty for his "worst game as a King."...Clean up on Aisle 11 - Anze Kopitar scores his first career hat trick and the Kings create a mess of their own on the ice as well...10 Tidbits on Scott Parse - yet another college hockey player gets a chance to play in LA.

How real is it?...Terry Murray likes Seals, not Sharks - the Kings coach and his connection to the NHL's Second Six...100 NHL goals for Dustin Brown - an honor worthy of a 10 tidbits article...in what had to be the greatest irony of all, given Rob Blake's history with section 119, he stops by for an interview - leading up to his final game ever at Staples Center, on 1/19.
5. February 2010 - Guys and Dolls article on Sean Avery returning to Staples Center, perhaps with a purse...R-E-S-P-E-C-T and why the players on the Detroit Red Wings get it...Super Sunday at the Olympics - perhaps the longest and best day of my life.

March 2010 - The Kings prepare for the Canadiens, preview article with comments from Roy, Melrose and Blake...a feature on the Kings unsung hero - 10 Tidbits on The Story of Zeus...while the Kings aren't playing so hot post-Olympics, we check in with first round draft pick Colten Teubert out in Ontario of the ECHL.
7. April 2010 - With the Kings returning to the playoffs we offer up a preview with the legend, Bob Miller!...in an article that received a ton of press in the Edmonton area, former Oilers Strength and Conditioning Coach, Ethan Moreau, explained the Science of Hockey...Jim Fox returns for another High / Low article - this time breaking down game five of the Kings-Canucks playoff series.
8. May 2010 - The Spirit of 76(k) - German style...updates from the World Hockey Championships.

June 2010 - Drew Doughty vs. Dustin Brown - sorta...and dozens and dozens of interviews with prospects getting ready for the 2010 NHL draft - here is just a small sample: Luke Moffatt, Calle Jarnkrok and Stephen Silas...also did interviews with a few player agents: Kyle Dubas and Scott Norton (Dustin Brown's agent).
10. July 2010 - Do you really want to relive the Kovalchuk articles? I'll spare you the links.
It's time to turn the page. The 2010-11 season is nearly upon us.
We look forward to providing new and interesting content as the days tick away towards the opening of training camp.
