GDT: 2022-23 season game 35 LA Kings vs Anaheim Ducks @7:30pm 12/20/22

[bland]

our lines still confuse me.

Why is Iafallo on the 2nd line? Should be Arvidsosn there and then have 3rd line of Iafallo-XXX-Vilardi. So that when QB comes back up you can plop him there adn Iafallo and Vilardi would have continued to develop chemistry.

Danault stopped playing defense. Replacing Arvidsson with Iafallo is designed to get Danault's line back into some semblance of responsibility because they were getting walked on the regular for a couple of weeks while chasing goals.

Is Spence playing

Two bad defensive teams. Should be an ugly high scoring game so at least this is the night to pad your stats.


Eh I think it’s likely the Kings play loose today so Copley is a better fit and the Flames will be more structured so I think it’s an easier match for Quick ironically. Quick does much worse in loose games than structured games because at his age he still heavily commits and doesn’t play smart when the defense is out for lunch imo

the kings can be bad defensively as we've see, the ducks ARE bad defensively! Cherry picker, blow the zone before you have control of the puck Zegras will be on full display.

I'm wearing my lucky Byfield jersey while watching on tv tonight.
Why is it lucky?
Because I've never worn it before and the Kings are going to kick the Ducks' ass tonight!

Just tuned in. Is it really Copley v Dostal? AHL goalie showdown if true.

Edit: It’s true.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Did Copley play at Cornell University? He reminds me of Ken Dryden a Boston Bruins draft choice that was swapped to the Montreal Canadiens within days of the draft

 

[AbsentMojo]

Diff between Copley and Quickerson combo is when he's on his knees his upper torso almost has the entire vertical 4 ft covered

 

[DoktorJeep]

Kings going to get out-scrubbed at the goalie position.

Shattenjerk was shaking his head

 

[Little Psycho]

This 31st pk making us look dumb

 

[Sol]

Sick and tired of Doughty

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Seems like the Kings are having a tough time against the second to worst team in the league.

 

[psych3man]

22 shoot the puck!

 

[Sol]

Correction this isn’t going to be a high scoring game because both teams are so stupid that they can’t string a single pass

Sigh…yeah

 

[DoktorJeep]

Ducks look good to double up the home team on shots. Thankfully Rob Blake has stumbled upon his Felix in Phoenix.

 

[psych3man]

Kopitar takes a sneaky pass from 22 then goes wide and behind the net to pass to nobody...sigh

He has had a horrible period

 

[Sol]

What a boring game

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The league seriously wants to manufacture rivals with more divisional games? Who wants to see more of this crappy hockey? There is no rivalry between these two teams. The crowd is utterly dead for this supposed rivalry game.

 

[EmuRidingLuffy]

Kaliyev may never score again.

 

[psych3man]

Arty....dude

 

[AbsentMojo]

yawn

 

[kingsboy11]

not a whole lot happening that period, pretty even overall. Powerplay was ass yet again.

 

[Little Psycho]

Good news that the ducks D is a disaster
