This post goes out to my favorite cousin Tom (@Dooms16) and my friend Aaron (@badmovienite) who are two of the biggest Los Angeles Kings fans I know.

In one hour, they will see their beloved team begin their quest for the Stanley Cup.

At this time last year, I felt much the way that they do right now.

Nervous.

Excited.

Anxious.

In the end, my team came away with the ultimate prize and my life was forever changed.

The joy and elation I felt was immeasurable.

Tom and Aaron, I hope you guys get to feel that too this year.

So WUYS readers, if you are cheering for the Kings this series, think of these guys.
