GDT: 2020-21 season game 22 LA Kings vs ST. Louis Blues @6:00pm 3/5/21

[Ray Martyniuk]

Blew it!

 

[King'sPawn]

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Kings went full dumbass mode and blew two points.

 

[apocalypse]

This young team needs to learn how to hold a lead. They also need to learn how to score in overtime and keep the other team from scoring. I'm learning to hate overtime. Let's do it tomorrow.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Didn't we use to be $$$ in OT's....?

 

[kingsfan28]

god damn son of a f***ing bitch! Just gave away 2 point!

 

[Herby]

This one really stings, 43 seconds from being 4 back of them in standings, now 7.

The Kings lack of talent really shines through on the 3 on 3, they don’t have anyone who thrives in it and it shows.

 

[KingsCourt]

I can't, I can't... Unreal

 

[HookKing]

TM has been great for the PP but he sucks at understanding 3 on 3.

ROR and perron kinda took over late there

 

[DryIslandBartender]

Slowpitar strikes again.

Not really, its TM won't put them out there.

 

[ru4reals]

Not that it matters but IaFAILlo with Kopitar in OT has got to be one of the most head scratching thing ever.

 

[kingsfan28]

Just wow! From empty net goal, to too many men on the ice in OT, to a loss. Text book how to fall apart in less than a minute.

 

[Mats26]

This team sucks on so many levels. Top line blew the game and they start the 3-3 OT.

They're definitely going through some growing pains.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

1-5 in OT, the Kings are so close to being good

It's the biggest difference in the standings really. Those three collapses--two vs the wild and now this one vs. the blues--and being unable to do dickall in OT.

It's frustrating as hell but it's progress. Completely outplayed them all game. THIS year, that's more important. I'll take it. Beats playing chicken shit collapse defense and praying for bounces. The flow of play was there.

Yup can’t be mad. They’ll learn.

 

[ru4reals]

This only means one thing we gonna see Amadios again. F***!!!

 

[kingsfan28]

We got 1/2 a line change in Ot, and it was too early and was a penalty. And Kopitar lost ANOTHER faceoff to start the OT. His ass was owned all night!

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The veterans cost the Kings tonight.

TM has been great for the PP but he sucks at understanding 3 on 3.

3 point games are huge for the divisional play we have right now, but when/if things get back to normal, overtimes won't be that important. But yeah, TM has to change the personnel in OT. Use fast guys like Carter, AA, etc.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Welp, back at it in 24 hours.

 

[Chazz Reinhold]

They're definitely going through some growing pains.

The problem with that is it was Kopitar, Brown, and Iafallo who collectively got too aggressive on the tying goal, and it was Doughty with a poorly timed change and Walker jumping on the ice too soon. Not exactly the rookies making the mistakes there.

Wasn't kopitars best night.
