One of the great things about having a community of writers covering the AHL is getting to pick their brains about their teams. It's what they know best. Robyn Pennington writes about the Reign at Jewels From The Crown, the LA Kings SB Nation site. The Reign are one of the five new California teams this year, but they just won the Calder Cup last season in Manchester. Tonight's matchup will be a contest between the two most recent Cup winners.
Last night the Reign came out hot against the Rampage, going up 3-0 early. San Antonio clawed back to 3-3 but lost in overtime.
