LAst Night's Action: Lord Stanley Moving to Cali?

Hockey? In Anaheim?Ducks 4, Red Wings 3 - Everybody thought hockey in Orange County was like a snowball in hell: Funny to say, totally unrealistic, and full of cliche (remember those "Mighty" days?). Well, it's starting to get a little chilly down south. The Ducks knocked of the "Mighty" Red Wings in six games, surviving a three goal scoring barrage by Detroit in the third period. Anaheim will host the Ottawa Senators in game one of the NHL Finals on Monday.

Angels 6, Tigers 3 - Some offensive fire power in the last frame wasn't enough to help Detroit beat Anaheim in baseball, either.

Dodgers 3, Brewers 2 - The Dodgers snapped a four game skid thanks to a go-ahead homer by Russell Martin. The LAist gang is starting to wonder if Jimmy will be able to write about his boyfriend for much longer. If he keeps playing like this, Jimmy might get carpal tunnel or his keyboard might break.

Sparks 81, Sky 64 - The Sparks beat Chicago to open their first season without Lisa Leslie. LAist didn't watch, nor did the AP compile a box score on Yahoo. Heck, Yahoo was reporting that the score was 72-56. Apparently they're as excited about the WNBA as everybody else.

Elsewhere - Clippers even lost the NBA lottery, getting the 14th pick (out of 14 non-playoff teams) ... LAist seems to be a day ahead of Deadspin once again, but we love them and will keep linking to our favorite stories from them.

You should work for the AP. One of the reasons NBC jumped out of the NHL playoffs in the middle of the game over the weekend is that it was getting beaten in the ratings by a regular season WNBA game.
