GDT: 2021-22 season game 23 LA Kings vs Edmonton Oilers @5:00pm 12/5/21

Kopi doing nothing probably got us a five minute major. Wtf is a point of 4 on 4 when you can run it up with 3 goals.

 

[Little Psycho]

I thought Mcdavid would score 3 against not give us 3 lol

 

[FrozenKing18]

Just saw the hit on Kempe. I’d f***ing rip the c off Kopitar’s jersey over that shit. Jesus Christ man, that’s the time you do something instead let me hold you.

I know that Kopi isnt the type to instigate but damn, at the very least chirp at the guy lol

 

[johnjm22]

Bullshit. He has been an O zone penalty machine and offensively inconsistent his whole career. Hopefully he’s finally figuring it out.

That's a valid complaint, but the overall complaining about him was never accurate. It was always an exaggeration.

 

[KopitarFAN]

NHL.com says Dewey took the hit, I was involved in the ensuing PPGs, come to find out he didn't take the hit.

Honestly with a one goal lead you take the major. Touching McJesus also brings the whole building down on you.

But they were both miraculously developed by LA somehow.

Iafallo was not developed by LA.

 

[AbsentMojo]

Yeah I agree. I think he's been so frustrating because we know how effective he can be, particularly when he isn't taking offensive zone penalties and killing all of LA's momentum.

Nice to see Kempe actually be consistently decent to very good without a long lapse of games of uselessness that has been typical of his entire career. Maybe he isnt this generations Frolov after all.

 

[LAKings88]

Iafallo was not developed by LA.

It’s his only NHL team. Sure college but to say they didn’t do anything wouldn’t be right.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Recorded the game - just watching now. Why is AA not playing?

Nice rebuild when TJ Truman plays over JAD.

 

[HookKing]

McDavid/Draisaitl --> 0 points.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

McDavid/Draisaitl --> 0 points.

Doesn't seem like Edmonton as a whole had more than a few threatening scoring chances either.

Has Kopi ever dropped the gloves? cant remember. The team was getting punked by Calgary too last game. That shit has to be handled. Arvidsson was getting destroyed all game - and no one answered. We need our junkyard dog back from his suspension.. my favorite JYDs were Lappy and Clifford.

Douchebag Burrows pulled him into a fight once.

 

[Little Psycho]

Todd and blake probably think they are geniuses after this game. Strum is getting an extension as we speak. Good lord.

 

[Nickster]

Is this the first win without Lemieux in the lineup?

 

[KingsHockey24]

Though inconsistent Fro managed to have multiple 60 point seasons, including a 70+ point one.

If Kempe could come close to those numbers I'd be thrilled.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Better hurry up and lose him to waivers.

Better hurry up and lose him to waivers.

Don't think the Kings can lose Durzi to waivers just yet...next year yes,but not this year

 

[kingsholygrail]

Good overall game against a playoff team. Took advantage of the major. Kept the big two off the board for Edmonton. Not much to talk about.

the tj tynan era has begun

Rob Blake right now

 

[Schmooley]

Nice win. Hopefully they can build on this one and string together some more.
Kempe and Iafallo have been their best players this year.
I think Kempe came in for Carter one year in between Pearson and Toffoli and looked good but otherwise this is the first time hes playing with more skilled players than Lizotte,Wagner etc.

 

[Johnny Utah]

So Doughty gets punched in the face by Tkachuk, Kupari gets slashed and ganged up by three players (all ex Kings) and Kempe gets pasted into the boards and no one does anything. Wow.

I guess this is Kings hockey.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

No complaints tonight, just don't roll over and shit out a turd tomorrow against Vancouver

Not to mention Bettman would have suspended him for half the season for touching McJebus
