GDT: 2022-23 season game 8 LA Kings vs Tampa Bay Lightning @7:30pm 10/25/22

[Ollie Weeks]

Byfield on the second is a shocker looked decent too.

I liked how often they tried to utilize him down low as well as his puck retrievals. He looks like he should be a permanent fixture. Hint hint.

 

[kingsfan28]

that one went in!!!
4-1

 

[DAkings20]

He's regressing!

 

[funky]

Kempe has one hell of a shot

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Adrian!!!

 

[Mcsorley47]

This has to be an awesome game to be at!

 

[kingsboy11]

You cannot pick that shot any better than what Kempe just did. Holy smokes

 

[AbsentMojo]

Kempe Snipitar

 

[crassbonanza]

What a beauty pass by Handzus to break Kempe free!

 

[cyclones22]

That was a direct result of the previous play. Vasilevsky thought he was going to pass it again. Good thinking by Kempe.

 

[Choralone]

Bork!

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Oh man, what a snipe, and good on Kempe to go right back at it

Now just have to survive a 3 goal lead vs TBL without Hedman or Kucherov doing something dirty to injure a King without punishment

 

[Telos]

Need a lot more of that. The 1st line is too talented even with slower Kopitar to not be producing.

Was getting worried when Lizotte was skating near the boards near Hedman a couple minutes ago.

Right....but we all know who's coaching so enjoy it while it lasts.

I just don’t buy what Faust is selling!!! It’s like when your brother in law that is a male nurse trys to pretend to act tough while everyone is watching a UFC fight.

Fake enthusiasm

 

[cyclones22]

Yeah beware of Tampa gooning it up.

 

[MBH]

I can't believe Kings fans are still chiding Tmac after he took LA to the playoffs last year despite:
* Virtually no contributions from the rebuilding pieces (Byfield, Turcotte, etc)
* No Drew Doughty most of the year.
* Ridiculous amounts of injuries on defense.

The Kings went from .438 to .604 on Phillip Danault and Tmac.

Handzus came out of retirement

What did I just read.

Kopi and Kempe are second on the team in scoring, just below a point per game

 

[Mcsorley47]

Hey Kings fans, let’s ride!

 

[crassbonanza]

Handzus came out of retirement

I was poking fun at RJ's absolute hatred of Kopi

 

[Telos]

Kopi and Kempe are second on the team in scoring, just below a point per game

Yeah, but a lot of those are packed into few games, we just need more consistency is all.

 

[lumbergh]

10 Kings with a point tonight.
