Haha I take that back. Lizotte bounce that off a skate to Gavy.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Kings can still score.

 

[King'sPawn]

Now all Copley has to do is channel his inner Cal Petersen and decide not to let anything in after 5, and the Kings have a chance.

 

[JTeller97]

Byfields shot looks a lot better

 

[johnjm22]

6 min to go and Carolina has 16 shots on goal.

wasn’t it 7?

 

[KingsHockey24]

Kings can still score.

Our backend is gaped though.

 

[Kurrilino]

wasn’t it 7?

I remember 6 but it was a legendary comment

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

We can still get a moral victory!

 

[King'sPawn]

We can still get a moral victory!

The analytics for moral victories are off the charts.

 

[johnjm22]

This feels like a game where you tie it, everybody feels hopeful, then you give up a goal immediately after and lose.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Some real up and down action on the eyebrows from Englund.

 

[KingsOfCali25]

you're going to have to move RV in his wheelchair... after another back surgery and IF he is playing by the deadline might get a 3rd for him with that injury history

A 3rd is better than nothing. If need be let him walk in the offseason but if he is healthy by the TDL then move him.

The problem is that the management think the Kings are Stanley Cup contenders. So there's a good chance Blake will trade the pick.

Not if they are shit going into the TDL because how they are playing now; playoffs shouldn't be a word in their vocabulary.

Uhhh, he absolutely can, and I surely would not bet against it if this level of goaltending is the normal.

Not only will other GM’s know they have Blake over a barrel, but he almost assuredly will need retention of salary to fit a decent goalie on as a rental.

Blake has f***ed this to tears.

With this goaltending tandem, the Kings will be out of a playoff chance before then so obvious thing will be to move UFAs for picks and prospects.

i dunno how old you are, but if you had the chance to see Blake on his final year with the Kings, and how he jerked the Kings around, telling them he'd sign, only to bounce and sign with SAN JOSE..., perhaps we could have prepared ourselves differently if we'd known he'd leave

it was a time where the Kings really needed his leadership too... screwed us and left us with Kyle Quincey as our best D alongside an up and coming Doughty

but anyway

Old enough to have seen Gretzky's first game in LA. And both LA and Blake were playing hard ball. It's a business for both and they both choose what they thought we best for themselves. I don't blame Blake like others do.

 

[Telos]

Well, here it is. Let's find a way to tie it. GKG!

 

[KingsHockey24]

Andreas Englund is the best player on the Kings roster.

 

[kingsfan28]

was all that worth losing 1 min off the clock?

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

Can they make it 3 shorties?

 

[Trash Panda]

Can’t wait to see what kind of new and creative way Fiala comes up with to set up a short handed break for the canes.

 

[AbsentMojo]

Something wrong w Fiala.. either physcially or mentally

 

[kingsholygrail]

In before the Kings pull the goalie and Carolina gets another shorty.

 

[kingsfan28]

put the 2nd unit out there

lost both draws this pp

 

[sinister6000]

Arvidsson is out month to month with back surgery.

 

[Telos]

Byfield looked pretty strong that shift.

 

[tny760]

those were crazy keeps from spence wow

 

[AbsentMojo]

I love Spence
