GDT: 2020-21 season game 10 LA Kings vs Vegas Golden Knights @7:00pm 2/5/21

I mean would be nice to blame it on the thinned defense but it's Carter, Doughty, Anderson et. al. that are -2.

 

[Lt Dan]

I wonder if McClellan even talks to them at intermission.

This is beyond words. it's time fo the cattle prod

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Jim Fox with a great breakdown of how we just keep giving up stupid oddman breaks with brain farts

That's right, I cant even comment on the game any more, I have to go meta

 

[Schmooley]

Maybe they can find some fancy numbers that show just how valuable Roy is to younger defensemen's nerves so folks will believe it.

Matt Roy is this teams most valuable player.

If not that long ago someone said matt roy will be an important piece of glue holding the team together Id probably have laughed at them in disbelief. But yea he really is a valuable piece.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

He doesn't want to be traded or picked by Seattle.

Why would Seattle want a 36 yr old Carter when they can select a much younger,cheaper King with potential

JAD looks good, give Kempe a letter, Old Yeller everyone else

Things I like about TM's system: how aggressive it asks the defensemen to be

Things I dislike about TM's system: what are the rest of the steps

probably would work if we had, like, good defensemen

JAD reminds me of when vilardi came up, like... shifty, active. hope he can keep it up

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

"we're gonna do some battle drills, we didn't really work against the Ducks so we worked today, we'll be ready for Saturday"

*does worse*

Savage.

 

[tny760]

foxy and army both on the telecast calling the players out for not putting in effort

this is a welcome change

Who was it that was guaranteeing that the Kings wouldn't be in the mix for a top 10 pick and were closer to a playoff team?

That was me and i stand by it. Let us not forget half our starting defense is out and 2 other starters when they get back we will start winning again. I have faith.

 

[sinister6000]

The system that won them 2 cups is gone. Hopefully they can draft Owen Power.

 

[ru4reals]

Just started watching the game, and finally saw the 3 goals against. What a Sh** show this has become wow. All three goals were brutal. That second goal though 5 on 2 or one. LMAO!!!!

This definitely isn't the same group that finished super hot last year...they look like frauds...injuries don't help

 

[HookKing]

This is a perfect illustration of why coaches don't really like playing rookies.

I mean if one would have checked the standings the other night technically we were still correct

I definitely still expect to be a black hole team when all is said and done

 

[kingsfan28]

Same problems, different game. Poor passing, turnovers, outnumbered plays, poor reads. Tonight we're facing a team that will bury every chance, and they have.

[Sol]

f***ing right. Positives? We need honesty, not sugarcoated bullshit

It doesn't matter. Blake has done nothing to build this team up with some enforcers so it doesn't matter. Kings suck.

 

[bland]

I know you're being snarky but the stats you loathe paint Roy as a god

Yeah, just grinds my gears that it took those numbers getting pushed on air before a lot of folks noticed.

There just isn't much calm or control on this roster, and I'll be damned if a single one of the defensemen currently on this ice feels comfortable enough to try and hold up play at the top of the circles. Its just a panicked escort service straight to the high danger areas.

Roy just does everything "right", and that level of competence makes the game easier for everyone else. There ain't much being done right without him.

Kopitar 10 million dollars, no effort all season. Somehow has points. And happens to be the captain. Disgusting.

 

[ru4reals]

I'm really starting to not like TM coaching.

 

[tny760]

reminded me of this

I'm here to see the youngsters! I just tuned in...might only last a little while
