GDT: 2021-22 season game 20 LA Kings vs Ottawa Senators @4:00pm (for some reason) 11/27/21

[Ghetty Green]

Turf Maatta for Clague, turf Brown and Moore for a pulse, and then we're talking.

I could argue Moores been the biggest disappointment so far

Hannibal Lemieux ruffling feathers

You love to see it

 

[kingsfan28]

i mean i haven't cataloged everyone opinions here but i think most people get that if he did it, he's gonna be punished. i just think we'd all like to see some proof beyond a guy coming out of a huge mess of a scrum with cuts on his hand and a claim that he was bit. if that exists, fine. he'll get suspended, we'll move on.

i have a separate question about how roussel can openly bite vlasic, get fined, and going back further have grabovski admit to biting a guy and not receive a punishment at all.. then lemieux gets 5+ games because reasons?

at the end there right before they resumed play, kopi is talking to an official and asked him about it, he said [ reading lips] he really thought he bit him, that there was blood on his finger. Some of the other cuts could've easily come while punching his helmet.

McLellan, Quick speak on Lemieux + Notes on Byfield, Doughty & Grundstrom - LA Kings Insider

“I spoke to Brendan, we talked about him taking care of his teammates and how much we appreciate it,” McLellan said. “He’s got a team full of supporters today that are happy he’s a part of the group and he does his job and he does it very well.”

“What’s important is what we say about Brendan and what we think about Brendan and that’s pretty clear in our locker room.”

God bless Quickie:

"Speaking of those inside the locker room, goaltender Jonathan Quick was……well, quick to speak about his teammate during today’s media availabilities and address last night’s situation, and Lemieux overall.

“I have my own opinion about what happened, or did not happen last night, and what I can tell you is that any comments that were made about Pep were garbage,” Quick said. “He’s a valuable player who sticks up for his teammates. We all support him and I’d rather have him on my team over that kid any day of the week.”"

"that kid" made me spit out my drink, such a JQ thing to say

I have no doubt he was an absolute turd to teammates in the past but it's pretty clear that has yet to surface here.

I don't love the bite, but I do love the fact he got in there with some anger after seeing his 5'6" teammate getting pushed around for some really insignificant 'spray'.

I mean Tkachuk went after tough guy Blake f***ing Lizotte of all people for THAT....

No better way to get your team going than trying to beat up the smallest guy on the ice.

Sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Best thing you will hear today

[Bandit]

I don't think you know Canada very well.

That’s nice. I don’t think we can discuss it further here.

T-ka-chuck, LOL!

 

[lumbergh]

Best thing you will hear today

The real lesson here for T-ka-chuck, is, don't stick your hand in icky places. Your employer supplies gloves. Use them if you have to.

 

[The Butcher]

Best thing you will hear today

I think I'm pronouncing it "Ta-KAchuck" from now on.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

So when do the Sens make tshirts?

Yearly ritual for an irrelevant Canadian team who has been wronged by the Kings and whipped into a mouth-foaming frenzy by the HNIC/Sportsnet crews.

This is a big reason why I don't ever want to trade Quick. He's the kind of guy every player wants in their locker room and on the ice.

I've played with a similar goalie and you'd do damn near anything for him.

You know he's gonna feed someone his blocker if you don't get there first haha

Did you ever try biting him?

 

[YP44]

Everyone else with biting incidents got fined, but you can't do that on HNIC to a whiny captain of a Canadian team, especially with the Lemieux surname.

except Ottawa is like the red headed step child of Canadian NHL teams. If Quebec ever gets a team the country will care more about that team then the Kanata Sens. They were only on HNIC as pity. Would be curious what their ratings are compared to other NHL clubs.
It's as rare to meet a sens fans as it is a Blues fan here in Calgary where there is a decent representation of all other Canadian clubs.

Still, it's a Canadian team. That's like when you're picking on your little brother...if you see him get bullied by someone else, you go after the bully, and then pick on your bro again when you go home!

As if there's any doubt this is their yearly "f*** the Kings" red meat:

 

[tny760]

love how they bolded it

you know it hurts so deep

 

[Reclamation Project]

We should clearly trust the JOKERS in the media more than his current locker room, what does Quick and his coach know?!? I'm buying a Lemieux jersey this week.

 

[Reclamation Project]

All it needs is a fact check for ultimate pettiness.

 

[Lt Dan]

you know it hurts so deep

We need to get John Mellencamp to record a version of "Hurts So Deep"

Hurts so Deep
Come on baby, make it hurt so Deep
Sometimes Tkachuks must feel the teeth
and make it hurt so Deep

 

[YP44]

I wonder how many of us would have defended Avery on HF boards during his time as a king vs afterwards.

 

[RaymondReddington]

Lemieux in the Kings locker room is no Sean Avery. Not even close.

Sean Avery is the only King I ever heard Bob Miller rip on for character issues.
