GDT: 2022-23 season game 25 LA Kings vs Seattle Kraken @7:30pm 11/29/22

[Kurrilino]

I am no fan of McLellan's, but damn, this team doesn't have anyone who can bring order to a frenzied game. Its a supremely poorly composed roster.

Well we have a captain that makes $10 mill who could take over a game at this point.......

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

Oof.

It wasn't 9-0, FYI.

 

[GoldenBearHockey]

And what has all this to do with 11-9-8 performance in OT?

The Hot Dog salesman from section 219 was out there for 8 goals for and 9 goals against

@crassbonanza he made my point

 

[Schmooley]

Jim Fox saying change has to occur is pretty big.

 

[AbsentMojo]

No bigger proof of how worthless +/- is than Doughty's game tonight. Standing out there while others score and looking like garbage the rest of the night doesn't equal a good game

That stat does have value over many games but tonite proves it can be worthless. Is it OK on this board if I admit I hate watching him play?

 

[SettlementRichie10]

At some point this season someone is going to have a real uncomfortable conversation with Drew about how untradable his contract is.

 

[onlyalad]

Tough, close fought game against one of the top teams in the division. Managed to get a point out of it.
Would have liked 2 but now we forget about it and move on to the next one.

Got to toss out the spin

Its weird that todd is talking about the other side of the coin is how hes happy the team fought back. Like who cares? when you let in 9 goals thats a sign of a colossal problem. His interviews are obnoxious.

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

It's overdue

I'll bet any of you...errr....awesome dudes....that Todd ain't going anywhere this season. $1000.

And that's EVERYONE, not ANYONE.

 

[Schmooley]

I do too.

 

[kingsfan28]

I enjoyed it.

 

[AbsentMojo]

It's hard to believe at times that Doughty and Kopitar are 2-time Stanley Cup champions. They miss DB23's leadership. The real captain.

Team is rudderless from top down to its captain and assistant (is Danault the other A, he's exempted)

 

[MynameisKing]

Holy Hell Mother of God! Where's Tim Murray? Don't even interview him. Just grab him from the old folks home and plop him behind the bench!

Betting on Blake doing nothing isn't exactly stepping out on a ledge, it's his MO at this point

 

[kinghock]

This is as bad as I've ever seen Doughty play

And he was best defensemen on Kings today.

 

[mysterman2]

Honestly, I would fire todd after this one. You can't have a game like this, especially the ot failure once again.

he tried the same lineup that failed in the Ottowa game and he goes right back after Fiala has a 4 pt +4 night and Vilardi with 2 goals. Deserves to be fired...OT looked stupid saturday and still looked stupid tonight. TMac stubborn and inflexible and lost us 2 winnable games. Should be fired.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Should've snagged Torts when we had the chance.

 

[MynameisKing]

Holy Hell Mother of God! Where's Tim Murray? Don't even interview him. Just grab him from the old folks home and plop him behind the bench!

I meant Terry Murray!

 

[Kurrilino]

Don't stress out guys.
This garbage starts with the leadership on the ice, we have 2 more years of that in front of us

 

[AbsentMojo]

Im sure he'd accept a trade to Toronto.. retention would be a lot

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Does Blake even talk to the media?

Why the f*** isn’t he being dragged in front of a mic to answer for this dogshit roster?

Blake and Luc are such an embarrassment. Neither of these jackoffs won a damn f***ing thing for this franchise when they played for us. And yet here they are carrying the torch while Dean was canned on the spot after three bad seasons. Embarrassing. Blake has had SIX seasons to turn this team around. SIX.

Embarrassing.

Good, then we can shut up about it?

 

[AbsentMojo]

I enjoyed it.

i laughed harder tonite than in a long time from some of the comments on here... it was very entertaining to see all those goals.. but from a purist perspective it was an abomination

 

[Sol]

Being happy the Kings scored 8 goals and "fought" back is like being happy that your girlfriend only cheated on you with 8 guys and not 9.

A lot needs to change. I really hope they do something with this team. Whether its firing Todd which they should, or just going out on the market and acquiring some defense. this cannot persist.
