The problem with this place leading up to/during/after the games in Montreal is that everyone knows they're gonna be losses, they all say it, then while the game is going on and after they all seem surprised that the team lost. It's flat out stupidity

Hopefully the team isn't as big of ******* as it's fans.
We'll win tonight, and the reason is we're not that bad. Just a bunch of fans that don't have the balls to hope for a win, set yourselves up for failure all you want but when failure is all you get you better not ***** because it's all you deserve.

Obviously a one-game sample, but Pyatt and Boyle outplayed Miller significantly in Phoenix.
Rangers will win tonight.. Cause it looks and feels like they won't. Little Zuccarello with a goal tonight. Lungqvist is gonna be focused...Lgr!!!!

A loss is whatever its the Kings, they are big, skilled and have great goaltending and we are trasitioning. A win however would certainly give this team some confidence.

Kings haven't looked fantastic to start the year Quick looks average, unfortunately so does Hank.

Quick is overrated, but the rest of the Kings are pretty underrated so it evens out.
Excecpt Regehr, Regehr is ****ing terrible.

Yeah you're not going to convince me that the Kings are underrated with how many posters are continually on their knob. Look at this thread, people already gave up.
Quick is so overrated it's ridiculous. It's not like he's 23 years old. He's 27 and 28 in January.
He had one really good year and a fantastic playoffs. Look at his stats otherwise. Look at his stats last year on a good LA team.
He's not the second best goalie in the NHL and he's certainly not the best.
Above average goalie on an above average team. I think he was something like 38th in Sv% last season

I don't see Quick as overrated at all. Guy won a Conn Smythe. He will probably be the #1 in Sochi this year just short of falling off a cliff and Miller standing on his head again.

Henrik is over 30, what's age got to do with it? Especially for goalies.
Right now if I wanted someone to back-stop my SCF team who wasn't named Henrik Lundqvist, it would be Quick. Rask being a close second.

The Kings dominate teams 5v5 (except when Regehr is on), but they lack finish so the games stay close. Justin Williams is ridiculously good, but no one ever acknowledges him. Instead Brown gets a lot of accolades for just riding shotgun to Williams and Kopitar and diving.
Richards and especially Carter (I'm serious) are two-way forces. Doughty, Voynov, and Muzzin are fantastic PMDs, most teams wuld be lucky to have one PMD as good as either of the three.
Quick is overrated. Clutch play is a myth at this level of sports, chokers have been weeded out years before they reach anywhere near the NHL level. He is only 15th among starters in 5v5 Sv% over the past three seasons. Hardly a top-3 goalie.

Lundqvist has been a consistent performer his entire career, Quick not so much. Age isn't a big deal, but you should be consistent by the time you're 27.
Williams is underrated for sure, Brown is massively overrated. Really not a fan. They're a good team but they're not world beaters IMO.
Lundqvist has put up 8 very good seasons. And a couple of those were fantastic. He has much more of a track record.
Quick has put up two really good years and isn't some young guy just coming into the NHL. People overrate him because they act like he's some up and comer, which just isn't true. He is a good goalie, who's had one outrageously good year.
People, understandably so, are going to remember him and that season. But it hasn't been a standard with him. He hasn't been nearly as consistent year in year out.
Lundqvist has.
It had nothing to do with saying he's a geezer. I was just explaining that he isn't a 22 year old that just entered the NHL and has had a couple great seasons. he's been around for a while and has seasons that are good and bad.
Last season he was pretty bad.....Lundqvist doesn't have any season in his career where you can say it was even close to bad.
