Don't believe in jinxes. Quickie has allowed 1 goal in a total of 160 minutes and has a shutout streak of 100:20 going.

Good hit on Kopitar. No reason for Richards to take 17 minutes in penelty.

Unless he felt like he had to contribute to the team. He hasn't been doing too much else this season.
Can't blame this game on a weekend afternoon. The Kings, as a team, haven't been skating well since the season started. Tough to count the Edmonton game. The Jets are are kind of...eh. Nobody really showed up for the Sharks. Quick was the only reason the Kings pulled out points against the Coyotes and Blues.
Cup hangover, Kings are pacing themselves, other teams are getting up to play the champs, whatever it is, it is.
This is worse than 2012. We were putting up very good possession numbers in 2012. We just couldn't buy a goal. This year we are getting wrecked in possession every game. I think we can safely put it down to being start of regular season not playing with 100% effort etc though. Since it makes no sense for a team that has been a top 3 possession team for 3 straight years to just fall off a cliff with the same roster
I have no doubt they will turn it on when required
