As of Friday, we are 285 games into a 1,271-game NHL season, but it is odd to see Pittsburgh and Los Angeles flailing away at the bottom of the Eastern and Western Conference standings respectively. The Kings and Penguins have a lot in common, beginning with the fact that since 2012, each franchise has won the Stanley Cup twice. In theory, that should count for something within their respective fan bases, but it never really seems to anymore. “What have you done for me lately?” was always a popular catch phrase in pro sports, but nowadays it seems more profoundly ingrained.
