NHL Stanley Cup Champions 2012: Los Angeles Kings
Every prominent professional sport showcases a commemorative video for its yearly champion, but the narrative of the Los Angeles Kings' journey to the 2012 Stanley Cup stands out remarkably. The statistics reveal a significant portion of the narrative. Founded in 1967, the Kings had never secured the most prestigious accolade in professional hockey; they had only reached the finals once (in 1993, with Wayne Gretzky as their leading player). Additionally, the 2011-12 season seemed bleak; despite making significant roster changes during the off-season, the team fell far below expectations, leading to the dismissal of their coach mid-season and barely securing the last playoff spot as the eighth seed in the Western Conference.
However, once they entered the playoffs, they embarked on one of the most remarkable journeys in Stanley Cup history, conquering the West's top three seeds: first (Vancouver), second (St. Louis), and third (Phoenix), establishing a 3-0 lead in every series and winning every away game throughout the process. They also surged to a 3-0 advantage over the New Jersey Devils in the finals, ultimately claiming victory 4-2 (with one loss on the road).
This video covers every match in each playoff series, featuring key players like Mike Richards, Dustin Brown, Dustin Penner, Drew Doughty, star goaltender Jonathan Quick, Anze Kopitar, and several others, along with coach Darryl Sutter, team broadcasters (including Bob Miller, a Los Angeles legend in a city that had not traditionally been known for hockey), and various analysts offering their insights throughout.
This is a polished production from the National Hockey League, and while it lacks depth—there's virtually no commentary from any of the Kings' rivals or detractors, and the snippets we do hear from players on the ice, bench, or locker room are frustratingly short—there is an abundance of beautifully captured game footage, creating a wonderful keepsake for long-time fans who had waited almost fifty years for their team to achieve this monumental victory.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
