This game is a great example as to why it would be utter genius if Blake gets a 1st or even 2 x 2nd round picks for Toffoli.

this is barely hockey, no one on this team can do a single f***in thing right for 90% of the game

Wagners been demoted to LW on the bottom line, after that dumb penalty. Seems to suit him better at LW.

Prokhorkin is the one benefitting with the extra ice time. If anyone is going to create anything it looks like it will be Prokhorkin or maybe Kempe.

The way the Kings are completely showcasing Alec and limiting Forbort’s game situations to third pairing 5 on 5, it makes me think they want to trade Martinez and will try to re-sign Forbort. They are not selling Forbort.
Amart with more ice time than DD. Probably won't see Hutton in the 3rd.
 
Huberdeau has more assists than Kopitar has points.

The importance of drafting and developing finishers.


Huberdeau was also drafted third overall. Our only picks #3 or higher in the 2000s: Drew Doughty.

In fact you have to go all the way back to 97 to find another #3 overall, Olli Jokinen.

hopefully that changes this year after we got punished by the lottery last year.
 
Let's just move someone on defense so we can get Big Mac in the lineup.

We've been getting a nice taste of just how boring this team can be when he's out.

seriously

these idiots can't defend anyway, at least mac brings the threat
 
You'd like to see push back from these guys but they know it doesn't matter so here we are.

That being said, I'd like to see these fringe type young guys like Wagner, Amadio, Porky, Roy etc...start taking some runs or stir things up. This is a huge example of why a lot of us don't want to just toss important prospects on to this roster: the vets are teaching bad habits because they aren't engaged. Young guys just go and skate around for a bit just like the vets: rinse and repeat.

I know that the Clifford as culture changer narrative gets made fun of, but here was a total kid coming in here and laying it all out on the line. Simmonds was also similar in this regard. I hate how the young guys on this team just look like passengers as well.

We had a nice little stretch there where these guys looked like they were coming together as a team but, unfortunately, it has looked a lot like last season lately.
