GDT: 2021-22 season game 16 LA Kings vs Washington Capitals @7:30pm 11/17/21

Wow. Washington has Connor McMichael, a late first round pick from 2019, centering the second line? And they have a better record than the Kings?

I thought young players like Kaliyev (who went 8 picks later in the same draft) are supposed to be demoted to lern2grind?

To be fair Backstrom and Eller are both out injured so they probably don't have much of a choice at the moment. That being said I always thought a team like the Caps were always willing to give younger players a chance. See Orlov, Kuznetsov, Vrana
 
Caps played last night and the.kings are rested coming off the road trip. After Ovie, Kuzy,, Wilson, and Carlson the drop off in talent is steep for the opponent. This game is definitely winnable and two points would alleviate pressure going into the upcoming back to back.

Looks like Quick is starting so him versus Samsonov is a bit of a wild card. With a rested goalie the kings should be in position to start strong, but they still look fragile, so I guess we’ll see.
Caps played last night and Kings haven’t played in 4 days is a guaranteed L. Are you stupid or something??? ;)
 
Iafallo looks as excited as an 11-year-old dressed in a Christmas sweater by his mom.
That’s because he knows he looks like this…

I think we get smoked tonight. After tonight, we find out how they respond to small losing streak after the winning streak.

JK 4-2 Kings.
 
The Kings need to weather the storm to start.

With Washington playing last night, they will have their skating legs.
 
The white gloves and shiny everything look f***ing terrible indeed.
the white throwback from last season with the white helmet was f***in money.. no idea why they got rid of that for this "wish we were vegas" abortion
 
what a horrible give away back Kopitar. Soft back hander up the middle
