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

[Raccoon Jesus]

Kings on the PP.

It’s about to be 3-0.

Beat me to it haha

 

[The Butcher]

Man, SOFT calls. This one in the Kings favor.

 

[KingsofLA]

Kupari has playoff pace, now I hope coach keeps Kopitar away from McDavid and has Danault on him 24/7

 

[Omni Owl]

f***ing team is embarassing since game 2. If you're not going to score, at least f***ing play physical and start taking runs. TM also f***ed up by not resting everyone before the series (RV injury), they all look like they have nothing left.

 

[MBH]

Switch AI and AA.

The special teams play has killed this team. How many times have we said that this year?

I can't count the games on one hand that we had good special teams.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

The special teams play has killed this team. How many times have we said that this year?

And how many times were we told we were making too big of a deal about it because they were winning?

 

[jgs]

If I was on the Kings I’d just run mcdavid nonstop. Don’t know why the Kings are so comfortable getting hit but no throwing them

Old school hockey is, if the opposing team ytakes runs at our players, we will take runs at there star players but the Kings don't know anything about old school hockey.

 

[DoktorJeep]

The league isn't making the Kings play like crap and have horrendous special teams

It’s Dean Lombardis fault for trading away his first rounders and not winning more than 2 cups.

 

[Omni Owl]

Also, how in the f***ing hell do the special teams coaches still have jobs on this team?

Remember they can't catch him. Soft too.

 

[Herby]

We just can’t compete with these guys on special teams. Despite what is said in the GDT’s the Kings still do take penalties, it’s a given.

Yes subbing out Byfield was the key.

I don’t think anyone said that, but what else is he supposed to do, QB has been bad. He has three first round forwards on the roster who have all struggled at the NHL level. All they can do now is hope that one of these guys can make a play and build on it. Tonight it’s Gabe and Kupari’s shot

 

[MBH]

Kings are doing it at 5 on 5 so far, it seems.
But the penalties are just killer

 

[LAKings88]

Can’t see a comeback tonight. Worst possible start.

 

[tny760]

kaliyev as the new bumper man is the magic bullet for this pp

surely!

 

[MBH]

Kaliyev on the PP

 

[LAKings88]

Such a shitty power play.

 

[Sol]

Kopitar loves to make the PP so predictable

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Everything is on the outside and slow

 

[jgs]

Kings PP is too predictable and moves the puck too slow.

 

[tny760]

kaliyev completely neutered

never even saw a shred of a look

why is this shit so hard for todd to figure out

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

1:15 setting up a soft wrist shot.

 

[MBH]

Kopitar had that seem pass open and he looked it off.

Just being sarcastic page after page of people seaming to blame him. He hasn't been good for sure. Teams problem is beyond just QB.

 

[AbsentMojo]

The truth is Kopi is has no feel for the PP
