Kings are playing like p***yes and are making the Wild look like the Broadstreet Bullies.

This is a really important game to see where the Kings are as a team, I want to see if they can settle the game down and start pushing back.

 

[kilowatt]

if it was my last day on earth, i'd want to have kings vs wild on in the background, because every game between the two feels like an eternity

Or put us to sleep.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Worst period of the year so far for us, and it isn't even close.

 

[ru4reals]

Brown with a perfect opportunity to pass but decides to keep it. Brutal.

 

[Docgonzo]

Why does it seem like every time Walker pinches he either turns the puck over or gets caught up ice for an odd man rush.

 

[tny760]

fiala complaining to the refs.. what's new

At least we have a preview of hell.

Worst period of the season bar none, no one looks like they want to be here.

Like I said previously I get it, it's 6 games in 10 nights, expect everyone to be gassed, but at some point it becomes about pride. None of those goals were simply because the wild are better, they were mental errors and lack of effort. Lay someone out. Fiala shouldn't be able to dance 4 dudes in the slot without someone putting him on his ass. No wonder they're gaining steam, no one wants to hit anyone. Could really use Brownie stepping up here.

We've had some pretty shitty periods this year, but this was the shittiest. Just completely crumbled after the first goal

I feel like this has been the case for a while. No teeth whatsoever. I feel like someone could lay kopitar out and no one would respond.

I think this will be more telling of TMacs ability to reel the team in

 

[kilowatt]

the kings have a serious case of not-ready-for-the-playoffs-itis

 

[Sol]

They should pull Quick if the teams gonna play like this in front of him

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Just got back...looks like I missed a lot

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

That opening period made me miss the 2018-19 Kings.

 

[BigKing]

Complete failure to match the intensity. Classic problem for this team during the past few years.

One team came in determined to win this game. The Kings came in hoping to win.

It's a different game when teams start taking you seriously. This is why I don't get hard over late season wins.

 

[redcard]

New game plan: don't suck

 

[kilowatt]

everyone took an entire period off

 

[Bandit]

Did we really think a 2 game win “streak” made us contenders or something? This team still isn’t very good so it’s not like this is unexpected.

 

[kilowatt]

how do you come back after that fiala goal. that was such a disgrace. wagner was laying on top of a wild defenseman and their goalie outside the crease...and fiala scored. how does that happen? seriously? that's like a season killer. i can't believe how bad that was

 

[onlyalad]

Kings starting their 5 day break a little early

 

[SufferingSelfCreated]

Physical, is not a word I use in describing how the Kings played in the 1st. From what I saw, we got pushed around. They punched(literally), and we had a glassjaw.
