GDT: 2020-21 game 16 LA Kings vs Arizona Coyotes @4:00pm 2/20/21

[Schmooley]

Way to gut out a gritty, ugly road win, matching check for check and scoring in every situation (PP, SH, 5v5, ENG).

--If Anze Kopitar is crosschecking a guy in the back, that tells me how much of a piece of shit he is. So glad they could clobber Garland all night. Especially when watching him chirping the Kings bench after the ENG

--Drew Doughty is a monster again.

--Vilardi's GWG and Iafallo upping his scoring pace to closer to 60...gonna be some seriously rustled jimmies on this board later



Exactly the comparison I wanted to make, being up against him tonight too. The guy is an absolute savant with blocking shots and making net front safe plays.

If i talk smack on iafallo every day maybe hell score 2 per game!

No idea what that is, but Bjornfoot was benched directly after the PP goal, until after Iafallo's Open netter....

Looks like I was mistaken, I didn't see him out there after that PP goal until the Iafallo goal

Vilardi is going to be a mini kopitar, and we're going to complain about him not shooting for years. I love it

Vilardi already shoots more than Kopitar.

No love for Cal tonight? He was in complete control the whole night.

This save tonight was unreal.

 

[Stimpythecat]

Nice win.

Even with 4 rookies, the defense looks solid.

If not for dallas, then every team with a positive goal differential is in a playoff spot. And the only reason dallas isn't is because they have played so few games.

 

[apocalypse]

Roy is the most underrated d-man in the league

Give him time. He'll soon be recognized by the rest of the league.

I've already recognized Kevin Fiala as a little bitch.

So I missed the game today which apparently was a pretty good one after reading some of the comments. Why didn't JAD play today?

He was injured last game.

 

[KingLB]

He was injured last game.

The way they are talking and how he was hit. You have to think shoulder right? Possibly collar bone? Didn’t look like concussion.

Well he definitely doesn't, Kopitar has 36 shots in the year, Vilardi has 18!

Looked like a shoulder injury to me.

 

[cyclones22]

Bummer. I remember the collision last game. Thanks guys.

 

[ru4reals]

Looks like the secret to victory is scoring first. Four game winning streak we know what must be done.

 

[Stimpythecat]

Just took a look at the coyotes board. they aren't happy.

 

[johnjm22]

Coming into this game Vilardi had an abysmal 16 shots on goal for the whole season.

He now has 4 goals on 18 shots. That's 22%. When he shoots he scores. He just hardly ever does it.

Shoot the puck Gabe!

 

[cyclones22]

Well I just watched the Youtube recap of the game and I was subjected to 9 minutes of the Coyotes broadcast team. Holy crap they are terrible.

They were really fighting for that invisible interference call

I have hated less than 10 Strangers in my life, Dustin Brown is one of them.

Dustin Brown drinks your Cryotes tears.

 

[mbar]

Lol

Not sure if there isn't bigger homers then the Yotes team. Nash and their play by play guy are terrible. Jack Edwards is by far the worst homer then followed by the Ducks and Yotes team.

Reading their board makes me happy. Very happy!

Well he definitely doesn't, Kopitar has 36 shots in the year, Vilardi has 18!

Seems like that'd be more related to ice time no?
