It was an expensive trip to Hollywood for Tom Renney.

Actually, it was a costly night at Staples Center for the Oilers coach.

Renney was fined $10,000 on Tuesday by the NHL for comments made in his postgame session Monday night, specifically about the officiating in the Kings’ 2-0 win against the Oilers.

“Maybe you need Hollywood in the playoffs. I’m not sure,” Renney said.

The ‘you’ apparently referred to the NHL, and Hollywood, the Kings, hence the fine.

At least Renney didn’t start talking about the clock at Staples Center...
