2018-2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs

We got so much for Muzzin haha.

Seriously. If we can draft someone like Broberg or Kaliyev with that Toronto pick, and Toronto does not win a Cup, that’s grand larceny.

Like, imagine the Richards trade, but we never win any championships. That bad, lol

That's an embarrassing display by the ref on that shift.

McAvoy hits a forechecker who doesn't have the puck and then seconds later misses a blatant trip.

You will not see 2 more blatant penalties.

I guess Dean Lombardi heavy hockey isn’t dead. Physical teams like BJs, Caps, and Bruins manhandling the “skilled” and “fast” teams.

Heavy hockey never really went away, we just stopped being good at it.

Nylander is as useless as tits on a boar. Just floating out there.

It also helps having players who can skate and hit. Do the Kings have players capable of doing both?

Oh and they also have some talent too. I know, hard to believe that a team with the right balance could succeed.

None of those teams neglected skill like DL did.

That is the difference.

People who do that should be dropped into a bottomless pit.

Kadri has to be suspended for that shit, dirty f***ing punk

 

[Scottkmlps]

Kadri is such a dumb ****.

 

[KingsHockey24]

This hockey is so much fun to watch.

Intensity.

Something we lacked all season.

Likely a one game suspension.

Main board metldown over Kadri and Leafs fans lol

 

[kingsfan28]

Out of all the guys available, NBC still uses grumpy Milbury to help call the games.

Tough sports day in Toronto. Raps lost too.

The sky is falling!

Why does the NHL allow crap like what just happened in Flames game? If Compher takes a late poke then by all means rough him up. But he's standing there outside of the blue paint and gets hit by 4 different Flames players, including the goaltender and Fanta who came from outside the original scrum to tackle him into the back of the goal.

Should be a penalty 100% of the time.

This series is going to be a blood bath, the officials completely lost control of tonight's game. I said it on the main boards. It might be the worst officiated game I've seen since in a sports game since the Lakers/Kings 2002. It wasn't that bad (I doubt anything will ever touch that), but oh boy was it ugly.

Do residents of Calgary only own Flames jerseys as clothes cause the amount of red in Scotiabank Saddledome is pretty impressive.

The Flames/Avs series is one I have no interest in.

Rest of them, I am enjoying.

Same can be said for Nashville. Looks like one big mustard jar in their rink.

 

[kingsfan28]

they let Smith get away with so much. That should've been just roughing on him , not evened up.

On top of that, AlphaBravo must have overlooked what happened to the Kings in 2016 as well. That Dean Lombardi/Darryl Sutter built team didn't seem to fare very well against the Sharks, and against other Pacific Division teams. But let's just forget that ever happened.

Or the 2016 World Cup.

Justin Abdelkader and Ryan Callahan (in 2016!) in a best vs. best tournament.

Dean could find success again taking over a team like Edmonton with in-house skilled players, but he simply had zero idea how to scout, draft and develop skilled forwards.

True. We need a mix of physicality and skill. Teams that get bounced from the playoffs because of a lack of grit may push hard for a player like Clifford. Unfortunately, the Kings are not trading him. Another reason why MacD needs to be in our lineup.
