LAst Night's Action: Kobe In Trouble Again

The league kept Kobe under wraps.Bucks 110, Lakers 90 - Los Angeles suited just nine players against Milwaukee thanks to several injuries and a one game suspension against Kobe Bryant. Still reeling from their double OT loss to Minnesota, the Lakers were down by 6 at the half and 16 after three quarters. The Kobe suspension, his second in just over five weeks, is causing shock waves in the basketball world. In the loss to Minnesota he was called for striking a defender after taking a shot. Kobe claims it was an accident, while others are calling for further sanctions. Either way, it's not good for a guy already struggling to put his past behind him.

Blue Jackets 3, Kings 2, OT - Los Angeles gave up a third period lead to lose their third in a row. Columbus' David Vyborny scored with just 21.4 seconds left in overtime for his second goal of the game.

Ducks 2, Coyotes 1 - Phoenix scored just 31 seconds into the game, but it was Anaheim celebrating at the end. The Ducks are just three wins and seven points from setting team season records in both categories, both of which were set last year.
