The Columbus Blue Jacket game gave the Kings an opportunity to enjoy their second four (4) game winning streak of this season. Surely, this could be done with a home crowd, more confidence and a well-executed plan: Shoot early, shoot often, heck.... just shoot!
A funny thing happened on the way to that potential streak which resulted in a loss. For reasons that make no sense to this blogger, Aubin got the start. Perhaps Crawford forgot that Aubin had the chance to take over the net in Pittsburgh, the team that drafted him in 1995. He had his time to put up or shut up in Pittsburgh in six partial years of NHL play including one as the starter, a job he failed to keep.
