GDT: 2022-23 season game 38 LA Kings vs Vegas Golden Knights @7:30pm 12/27/22

[lumbergh]

Last six games, starting with the road game against Boston, the Kings GAA below 2. Finally figuring out the defensive side of the game without sacrificing all the offense.

 

[kingsfan28]

Arvy deserved that!

yeah, love him going through the legs of the defender for the EN goal.

 

[kilowatt]

Also can we talk about the fact that the two Vegas goal scorers were Amadio and McNabb? Kings and getting scored on by former Kings, name a better duo

 

[The Butcher]

Someone point me to the thread on why this win doesn't count due to all the VGK injuries, thx.

Just enjoy the win, man.

 

[kilowatt]

Through 38 games this season, LA is 20-12-6, good for 46 points, and have scored 125 goals and allowed 130 goals against.

Through 38 games last season, LA was 20-13-5, good for 45 points, and had scored 109 goals and allowed 97 goals against.

 

[Cianide]

I've counted one shift from the 4th line. Just leave him in the ahl if you're not gonna play him

I think as he gets better in the nhl he'll get more playing time. There's a learning curve here.

 

[Surf Nutz]

That makes no sense SFO.. whats on tap tonite? bourbon, gin?

think it has more to do with them figuring out the goalie situation.

 

[AbsentMojo]

Put QB on 3rd line wing.. Let Kupari center JAD and Dumdum.. QB had a couple games at wing in Ontario

By then Seattle will have probably only played 35 games.
My god did we get screwed by the schedule makers!

Its like last year we were like 6 games ahead of Calgary was hard to tell where we stood.. i dont remember ever in the past teams getting ahead by more than 3 or so.. 5 games is alot

Regulation win vs. a divisional opponent is nice, no matter who was missing. Kind of game they'd typically piss away but they took a lead and held it and THAT was a nice development.

Please just send Byfield, Spence, et. al. to the AHL instead of wrecking them here if you have no intention of playing them, it forces TM to play Kopitar 24 minutes since this is an age-o-cracy.

Copley has been a really nice story and rooting for him.

Knew it would be Amadio, didn't think it could also be McNabb.

That GWG was so pretty, even down to the dirty work in the dzone leading up to it. Glad they got rewarded through legs and hard work and finishing with a pretty play across all 200 ft.

Wins like this are why bullshit losses against bottom feeders are so maddening.

Yeah, there was a point in the game where i thought "where was this effort against ARZ!?"

 

[LAKings88]

Buffalo and Arizona were on back 2 back with travel. Not concerned over either.

Vegas will be scary with a full compliment but the Kings were down Moore and Arty, is what is. Division is gonna be tight down to the last game. Big 2 points tonight. Copley has been so huge so far. Keep it going boys.

 

[Jason Squirties]

Just enjoy the win, man.

That person has literally become everything they hate on this forum but pictures themselves on a pedestal instead of the glass house of reality.

Vilardi and Byfield logged fewer minutes COMBINED than Anze Kopitar tonight. Kopitar played nearly 24 f***ing minutes tonight.

Byfield and Spence both are being absolutely wasted at the NHL level this year. What the f*** is the point of playing Byfield for 9 minutes a night with shit linemates when he was having a great campaign down in the AHL?

It’s utterly confounding roster management.

 

[King'sPawn]

So... why not give Kopitar fewer minutes instead? It's like he doesn't know how to reward good play of prospects?

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

TM is right to bench Lemieux down the stretch and those minutes have to go somewhere. The problem is penciling in that scrub in the first place. It's so frustrating because TM knows this is going to happen and does it anyway

 

[Sol]

Yeah I think Lemiuex has no spot on this team anymore. He’s way too risky and the rewards are very small, just like his frame.

Or, if Byfield and Kupari were playing well enough, give the occasional double-shift to Kempe, Iafallo, and JAD as their left wing. Heck, throw in Arvidsson, Vilardi, and Fiala in the mix.

Saying "he played well enough to earn more minutes, but Lizotte has played so well," when the top line played terribly for over 20 minutes, is next level lack of awareness.

 

[Steve Zissou]

This f***ing guy right here.

 

[Frolov 6'3]

More steady goaltending is 80% of the story of the last 10 games.

Its lame to blame the goalie but what Quick was doing just looked awful.

Someone point me to the thread on why this win doesn't count due to all the VGK injuries, thx.

Axl, I rather point you to the thread where you were not convinced that Quick is finished.


I believe it was somewhere on this page;

GDT: - 2022-23 season game 31 LA Kings vs Columbus Blue Jackets @3:00pm 12/11/22

You guys are blaming Quick for last night? LOL. This board is a clown show, day after day.
