GDT: 2021-22 season WESTERN CONFERENCE QUARTER FINALS Game 3 LA Kings vs Edmonton Oilers @7:00pm Series Tied 1-1

[The Butcher]

Anze Kopitar was drafted in 2005 and debuted in 2006. He is old, he should be in a situational role at this point in his career, not a 1C.

Multiple GM’s, scouts, development coaches failed to find a replacement for him the last decade. And we see results like this.

Who is the Kings #1 center next year?

This is, again, why I hate to hear him trashed here. He's a warrior. It's up to brass to decide his proper deployment.

 

[jgs]

Halilua! kings break the shut out.

 

[Master Yoda]

Kopitar = #1 Center

 

[DoktorJeep]

Man, that’s was a nice goal by Kopitar

 

[lumbergh]

Where has that been?

 

[Zero Pucks Given]

Miracle on Manchester 2.0?

 

[The Butcher]

Look who it is lol.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Are we capable of shutting out Edmonton the rest of the way and scoring 5 goals to win it?

No.

 

[bland]

That was a nice forecheck by Athanasiou

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Hard to blame Quick on most of these but he's not exactly helping either.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Miracle on Manchester 2.0?

 

[riznat]

KopiStarrrr and you all doubted his greatness

 

[HookKing]

Who was the forward that set that up?

 

[DoktorJeep]

Lizotte with the holding penalty. He’s benched next game right?

 

[kingsboy11]

out of all of our chances we've had this game somehow thats the goal we score

 

[Trash Panda]

That was a nice forecheck by Athanasiou

Even a broke clock is right twice a day.

 

[justonetime]

They took both, 4v4

 

[riznat]

Hard to blame Quick on most of these but he's not exactly helping either.

I agree but not being able to score any goals, even on many powerplays is the real issue

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

That was a nice forecheck by Athanasiou

That was an “oh shit everyone saw me lose my job” effort

 

[shuchukfan]

kane's been electric this period as much as i hate to say it

Should throw some gambling chips on the ice to distract him.

 

[MBH]

Hard to blame Quick on most of these but he's not exactly helping either.

Was it 4 goals on 17 shots?
Hard to blame him for game 2, when the Oilers just totally out played the Kings.
Tonight, though...

 

[CowMix]

Let's get the small victories. Not getting shut out is one. Let's try to survive a pk without giving up a goal next.

 

[sinister6000]

This style of hockey isn't going to work in the playoffs.

 

[Sol]

Byfield was clearly holding the Kings back.

Let’s not pretend Byfield that wasn’t atrocious. Worst of them all. And everyone else sucks a lot but not as much. Byfield sucking and our coach being brain dead are mutually

Look at you go with your anime gifs again. :*)
