Why? We blame him for every loss, we can’t give him some credit for the wins? Now, THAT’s an ‘odd kink.’
Hang it baby, will look great in his trophy case

You just proved you have too much time on your hands which might explain for 55k posts. Yikes...

You must be new here.Y’all getting spicy with the personal digs. Thought we were all on the same side??
I just don't get how they continue to employ a passive box that caves in and leaves so many passing options available. They apply absolutely zero pressure on the puck carrier.
It’s always the same attention seeker. Haven’t seen a poster ever like him on here or LGK.Y’all getting spicy with the personal digs. Thought we were all on the same side??
This is not making the point you think it makes
Came home from work with 2 mins left in third.
Pandas are not known to fling poo, but maybe I'll change my name to "Angry Chimpanzee".You must be new here.
A long, violent history of poo flinging around these parts from some of our more colorful regulars.
You’ll get used to it. Sprinkle in some mystery from the ignore list, and you may even enjoy it.
But Bland said we lost the trade and Faber will be much more valuable in the playoffs.When was the last time the Kings had a player among the league leaders in scoring, and producing at over a point-per-game pace? Anze Kopitar in 2017-18?
Kevin Fiala has 30 points now, tied with the likes of Steven Stamkos, Auston Matthews, Artemi Panarin, and Roope Hintz.
I'd say they're getting their monies worth already from Fiala.
At this point, I think that's almost a universal feeling.It’s always the same attention seeker. Haven’t seen a poster ever like him on here or LGK.
The kraken and blues have a worst pk than us. Can’t imagine a shittier pk
Lol, someone throws TM some love, rightfully deserved, and people lose their shit. You guys got issues.It’s always the same attention seeker. Haven’t seen a poster ever like him on here or LGK.
You know that’s not it. Most of us get along well and don’t result to childish antics of “I told you so”Lol, someone throws TM some love, rightfully deserved, and people lose their shit. You guys got issues.
I'm not supporting Bland's analysis of the trade; however, I will say that it is extremely early to say that the Kings won the trade seeing as the two assets going the other way were a pick and a prospect. Early returns say the Kings but we'd be in deep shit if the early returns weren't in the Kings favor.But Bland said we lost the trade and Faber will be much more valuable in the playoffs.
I’m confused
/sarcasm
The incapability some people have of nuanced discussion, when detailed criticisms and rationale have been provided, is astounding.I'm not supporting Bland's analysis of the trade; however, I will say that it is extremely early to say that the Kings won the trade seeing as the two assets going the other way were a pick and a prospect. Early returns say the Kings but we'd be in deep shit if the early returns weren't in the Kings favor.
I like Fiala. I actually think Bland likes Fiala: he just doesn't like the timing of the addition and the roster construction. As a fan and STH'er, it sure is fun to watch him stick handle and make wow plays. He's really fun and he drives offense: especially at even strength.
Fiala has a shit playoff history so far. If the Kings make the playoffs and he sucks again, this place won't be so thrilled about him.
This place loved Lucic during the 2016 season.

btw whats wrong with eating your desert before dinner? do it all the time.. but seriously now - there is nothing about this trade that hamstrings the Kings in the rebuild... it does regress them this year, but they have so many holes it did/does not matter. You have a great top 6 wing locked up at at or below the going rate and will be in his prime when the team finally congeals in a couple of years. Edit: this assume that Blake will fill the holes at LD, G in the short termJust to add, if anyone is serious about supporting a contending team they should take a step back from the highlights and look at the actual impact the Fiala trade has had thus far.
Same position in the standings, same problems preventing the team from progress, same old shit as last year. More goals in both directions. Adding Fiala was like eating your dessert before dinner.
Interesting...I could have sworn the #1 'problem' the Kings had last year was scoring goals. Finished #20 overall in that department.Just to add, if anyone is serious about supporting a contending team they should take a step back from the highlights and look at the actual impact the Fiala trade has had thus far.

You can add the right player but at the wrong time. Skilled wingers are the absolute easiest thing in the league to acquire. Hell, the Kings dressed 7 offensive wingers in their top 9 last night. This team has massive structural issues that will limit their potential. A player like Faber enhances your structure. Makes your team more responsible, more determined, harder to play against. If the Kings were a year or two further along in the rebuild sure, I would get behind it, but this deal didn't solve any issues, it just hid them behind goals.
It could also be argued - easily argued - that the addition of Fiala changed the approach of the team from a more defensively sound unit to a more offensively oriented careless group that doesn't have the leadership skills to merge the two.
Skilled, PPG players?? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL -- absolutely horrible, putrid take. Congrats.Skilled wingers are the absolute easiest thing in the league to acquire.
