Pre-Game Talk: 2021 Rookie Faceoff 9/17-20

[KingLB]

If he makes the NHL I am going to bring a bell to the game and ring it during stoppages to make him salivate

Damn you! I was working out the language on my Pavlov joke!

 

[KingTech]

I am impressed by Durzi He is much better defensively then I first thought. Also very surprised by how Byfield come to the defense of his defenseman (durzi?) I would be very happy if he can keep up the physical play. Finally Arty had a great period as well Hell of a pass on the first goal.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Sammy Gee has smooth moves in tight spaces, with a shot that might rival Kaliyev’s for effectiveness and how fast it gets off.

 

[DoktorJeep]

QB with the goal on an uncontested dunk.

 

[bmr]

Byfield with a couple of points already.

 

[Antiillafire]

Chromiak is going to annihilate the OHL with Wright this year

 

[kilowatt]

Chromiak is going to annihilate the OHL with Wright this year

50 goals, 100+ points please and thanks.

 

[Schmooley]

I missed the second period but Grans is not as raw as expected. He will be an NHLer.
The boys look good

 

[Rob Brown]

QB looking good?!

 

[bmr]

QB looking good?!

Yes and appears to be gaining in confidence and size. Guy is gonna be a beast.

 

[bmr]

Tempered expectations, guys - but i'm very excited for the future. The moves that Blake made and the maturation process with the rookies has me really looking forward to watching Kings hockey.

 

[kilowatt]

I don't want to get ahead of myself here but I think we're going to win 10 cups in the next 10 years.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Finally tuning in to the 3rd.

Nice to see our boys are really stepping up.

Byfield and Kaliyev and Fagemo, Tucrotte, etc are all on track to be good players, but it's really good to hear about Durzi's game today (so far) after his last season.

 

[Sol]

This team is f***ING TRASH. FIRE THEM ALL.

Wait they're winning?

 

[Fantomas]

How does Pinelli look?

 

[Docgonzo]

I don't want to get ahead of myself here but I think we're going to win 10 cups in the next 10 years.

You’re always so pessimistic….only 10? Hater!

 

[KingTech]

How does Pinelli look?

Not great I mean nothing against him just not standing out compared to Durzi Byfield Arty kurpari turcotte

 

[bland]

Durzi played really well last year, took big strides forward after a fairly stagnant 19-20.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Madden finally cashes in after numerous penalties by both teams.

 

[Sparky206]

Spence looks like something special with the puck

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

I don't want to get ahead of myself here but I think we're going to win 10 cups in the next 10 years.

Only 10 Cups in 10 year not 20 Cups in 20 years?

 

[Sleeping Dog]

Quite the game by the Kings. Outside of way too many penalties, there weren’t many mistakes.
Trying not to get too excited about one rookie game, but it sure is nice to have a win! The team looked strong.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

I was thinking the tourny started later miss most but the last 8-9 minutes. Helluva a penalty kill 5-3 and even 3-3 on was very good! Madden scores yes!Our Rookies are light years ahead of Colorado's

 

[kingsboy11]

Honestly I don't really have many complaints from this game. They played well throughout the entire 60 minutes. Got into penalty trouble late, but they responded well. I was surprised at how well the defense played given the lack of experience, but Durzi lead the way. Villalta also played extremely well which was really nice to see after his poor season last year. If I have to find something to complain about I wasn't really impressed with any of the camp invites which really isn't that big of a deal.

 

[Fishhead]

I was expecting Villalta to be a sieve, that didn't happen. Spence looked.... fantastic.
