The Los Angeles Kings continue to roll through the Stanley Cup final, as they blanked the NY Rangers 3-0 to take a 3-0 series lead.

Believe it or not, that goal was the first time in this series the Kings have a lead in regulation time. Going back the last three games, the Kings have only gotten out front when they score the game-winning goal in overtime.

Playing from behind and not panicking has become this team's trademark and now this cool-as-ice demeanor has left them one win away from their second Stanley Cup in the last three seasons. With more on the Kings is Dave Joseph, reporter for ESPNLA and he joins us from New York City.
