What a disaster. Well at least they came back twice to tie it. 2-1-1 so far on the roadie I mean we have 5 out of 8 points. Could be worst.

I don't even care about that call. Shouldn't be in that position in the first place.

Boston and Buffalo up next. Tick tock.
bruins and tage thompson are gonna run a train on the kings d and goaltending.

If your system after 4 years still has guys going to the wrong spots and not knowing where to cover and where to be to support their teammates, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's not the 23 guys with a variety of experience from rookie to stanley cup champion and say it is on the coaching and management decisions.

That PK alone is giving me the shivers, I can watch it get picked apart two passes before it happens, and you know every player on the ice feels the same way. At some point that buy in is going to completely wane.
 
Pencil in another very winnable game that goes down as a loss...Happy to get a point but...

Without Doughty a good opportunity to really see how good the D Corp really is and is what we said all season long.

Anderson clearly NHL level defensemen....top 2 on a bad team, top 4 on a good team, bottom 6 on a great team. Edler shouldnt have been resigned, Walker will never be a top 4 NHLer, Durzi offensive skills but inept and impotent in most defensive aspect of the game, Roy passable. Will say had Kings started Bjornfot like they should have the Kings would have more wins. His ability to make a good clean crisp pass to leave the zone was spot on. Youll never confuse with Rod Langay defensively but solid enough to be the outright liability that Durzi is.

Happy to get a point in back to back games but once again...a very winnable games goes down as a Loss. Lost count at this point but probably up to 5-6 games this season. Some have gone down as losses so consider the OT loser a point a moral victory.

Side question- did Tmac use his TO this game?

Dman Ice time rankings; Durzi leading all dmen followed by Anderson, Edler, Roy, Walker............followed by Bjornot.

Durzi and Edler in the top 3 for Ice Time...let that Sink in.

we havent had a winning identity since 2013. 2014 was a never say die mentality. 2015 was a never say no to surfing mentality.
 
Oh we played today.

Oh we let in 6 goals again.

On the CBJ broadcast, one of the reporters said he heard a bunch of shouting in the Kings locker room during intermission.
That’s not possible. They’re all really good friends. They’d be WAY worse without the power of friendship on their side. They were probably shouting positive affirmations to themselves in the mirror.
 
I don’t care if the Kings got a point or not, it’s not offense that’s the problem. This team is so bad in defense and goaltending. It’s horrendous.
