This is a battle between pacific division rivals. The Phoenix Coyotes finished 2 points ahead of the LA Kings for the 3rd seed in the playoffs. None of that matters now with the Kings eliminating the #1 & #2 seed in the Western Conference. The Kings are the hottest team in the playoffs but some say the Coyotes can be the team to stop them.
