GDT: 2021-22 season game 40 LA Kings vs Tampa Bay Lightning @7:30pm 1/18/22

Doughty is killing us today.

seriously having a horrible night

it's even worse when he does that stupid shit like pulling to the inside and letting maroon shoot then chirping him after

it's just like, shut the f*** up and focus on your game dude

 

[bmr]

Cirelli is the biggest p***y on that team. What a douchebag that guy is.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

You can't call that after you let another guy impede a breakaway. Holy f***.

It's like they're visibly reffing with a double standard between that and the dueling crosschecks.

 

[AmadiosAmigos]

Normalize PP2 being the only PP we use

 

[BigKing]

At the game. Are the Lightning being as big of p***yes as I'm witnessing from the rafters? I'm yelling and calling it out but I think everyone thinks I'm crazy because they don't see it. I thought it was embarrassing on their part. So f***ing unlikeable. So Florida.

 

[Sol]

Doughty has been so bad since he’s returned

 

[HookKing]

Fox was right, that was not a penalty. Nice dive by Cirelli.

They sure are, acting like everyone owes them everything, and clearly it's working.

i don't think i've ever seen this board so riled up about that stuff honestly

I honestly can't believe the Kings are having around. Officiating like tonight really makes you want to put on your tinfoil hat

 

[AbsentMojo]

When you've mailed in games for 5 or 6 years in a row, its hard to break out of that pattern (cf 8 and 11)

 

[Pucknut50]

John Cooper seems like a real arrogant a**hole.

I wouldn't blame TM one bit for getting thrown out tonight, in fact I wish I would. He's channeling Dave Roberts watching guys take balls as strikes

The difference now is this team believes and they give a shit. That’s how you win fans over. Kopitar and Doughty better get their heads out of their asses. I would put people on the ice who are actually playing hockey.

Sorry Kopi but Danault is already clearly the Captain of this team and it’s his first year.

 

[Cook24]

Tampa seems like a bunch of cry babies…

 

[Reclamation Project]

John Cooper seems like a real arrogant a**hole.

Great coach no doubt, will go down as one of the best ever, but something about him makes me suspicious. He seems so fake in interviews.

 

[johnjm22]

Seriously at this point how PP2 isn't PP1 is just f***ing bad coaching and there's no way around it.

Make all the vets PK, let all the kids PP at this rate. PP1 has to be an actual f***ing net negative.

Reversing the PP units would seem like the most obvious, and easiest thing to do right now. Clearly a shakeup is needed.

Most coaches would be irate after watching PP1 give up a shorty like that.

If the Kings get another PP in the third, I don't want to see the Kopitar unit getting sent out first. There's no reason for it.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

The best way I can describe it is playing an away tourney against at Team A's rink with Team A's refs and they're clearly all in on it but there's nothing you can do about it other than fight

 

[tny760]

John Cooper seems like a real arrogant a**hole.

reminds me of those soccer managers that overreact to everything to make a scene

then he hits you with the "my dad's a lawyer"

He's Eric from Billy Madison

Theyd rather tickle the vets nuts than have a good powerplay

 

[The Lukeman]

Holy shit the ref's have done a great job being the celebrity tonight. Both boards are fuming.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Danault giving me heavy Mike Richards energy of late.

[apocalypse]

if the Kings want to make the playoffs this year then you burn the year. Danault is better than Kopitar. Byfield can’t be any worse than Kopitar

Yeah I think Kopitar's just checked out. He seems done. He's just not into it. He's shown some flashes of his old self over these last couple of months, but other than that, he's just not there. I wonder what's going on? I think Byfield will be a lot better than Kopitar. I think the team will be noticeably better with QB.
