Round 3 of the Stanley Cup Conference finals kicked off last night and what a game it was. Los Angeles and Phoenix Pacific division rivals met up in the desert and it was anyone's game. With Jonathan Quick manning the pipes for Los Angeles and MIke Smith stopping pucks for Phoenix. As usual Los Angeles opened up the scoring, Anze Kopitar it was. Not before the 1st period ended Phoenix tied it up. Dwight King made it 2-1 Kings in the 2nd period but Mikkel Boedker made it 2-2 before the 2nd ended. Again in true Captain leading a team to victory fashion Kings Captain Dustin Brown scored the game winning goal early in the 3rd period. Dwight King scored his 2nd goal of the night on an empty net with 48 seconds left in the 3rd. Kings win game 1 with a 4-2 final and lead the series 1-0. Jonathan Quick stopped 25 of 27 shots. Mike Smith was the busier goalie stopping 44 of 47 shots. Below you can check out the 1st goal of the series by Anze Kopitar, the Derek Morris goal from CENTER ICE and the game winning goal by Captain Dustin Brown. Plus a video clip of Jonathan Quick's style and a crazy glove save by Mike Smith!

Victoria B.C. Man Jamie Benn is competing for his country. Benn is no stranger to wearing the Team Canada jersey. Benn was on the Gold Medal World Junior Team in 2009!
Dallas Star Jamie Benn donning the Team Canada jersey for yet another international tournament!
Jordan Eberle has been lighting up the scoreboard at the World Championships. Nothing new for Eberle though. Eberle played on the same World Junior Team as Jamie Benn. Gold in 2009 came with a tying goal with 5 seconds left in the 3rd by Eberle. A win in OT meant Russia was out and Canada was onto the Gold Medal round vs Sweden. Canada Won! For old time sake you can watch Eberle's goal at WJC 2009 below!
Not only does Jordan Eberle rock the Team Canada jersey on the ice he represents off the ice as well!
