On Friday, late night talk show host Conan O’Brien said this:
Conan O’Brien Swings, Misses With Kings Vs. Coyotes Joke
The @LAKings are playing the @PhoenixCoyotes? I wonder which city that shouldn't have a hockey team will win.

Damn, Conan. I thought we were friends. Forgetting the fact that the Kings and Coyotes are no longer actually playing each other and that the Kings have been a successful part of the Los Angeles sports landscape for 45 years, the “hockey doesn’t belong in southern American city X” joke is pretty tired at this point.
You know the Kings responded. This is @LAKings we’re talking about here.
@conanobrien Clearly, that joke wasn't meant for prime time.
