GDT: 2023-24 season game 23 LA Kings vs Montreal Canadiens @4:00pm 12/7/23

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Montreal is and will always be my most hated team ever. #neverforget'93cupfinals. Remember we use to never beat Montreal no matter what stage the two teams were at. Just loving us smoking the Canadians at any time. Feels good.

Most hated team ever? LA wasn't good enough that was all

Drew needs more love. He wanted to turn up his offensive game and he’s done just that. Amazing.

 

[YAYSAY]

Byfield emergence is like signing a 9m free agent. Talbot playing about 10 times better than his salary. Moore even better than right before his contract signing. Englund 1m 26 yr old mostly AHLer waayyy better than Edler. Spence is solid as expected better than Walker. Who am I forgetting?

I legitimately completely forgot about Edler

 

[AbsentMojo]

Dubois negating all the salary positives you just listed.

so true.. to whiff on PLDud and still be killing it is hard to comprehend

 

[SaltyElkHunter]

Kings go 41-0 on the road lose in 7 games on home ice to Edmonton in the first round lol

 

[chris kontos]

I’m sure you were saying just that when they made any transaction over the summer.

Ok ok
Whatever that means

Start with a 3-0 lead. Win. Works every time.

Yes losing to the Canadians over and over again creates a lot of hatred. It stems far beyond us sucking. '93 just made the hatred grow even more.

sorry to remind you

tell that to clodumbus

 

[Omni Owl]

Proud of the boys. I'm glad I was wrong about Byfield, that 1st goal had shades of young Kopi written all over. Doughty has noticeably elevated his game this year, looks like a new Drew.

 

[lumbergh]

This team goes to 11.

Seriously. Imagine how much better they could be if that money went to a useful player.

Also works with a 3-0 deficit. Win. Works every time.

This team is nuts. 2nd in goals scored per game, 1st in goals against per game. Multi-point games for Byfield, Kopitar, Doughty, and Fiala. Kempe, Kopitar, and Fiala over a point per game.

Seriously. Imagine how much better they could be if that money went to a useful player.

well Blake hit homeruns (so far) on Talbot and Englund.. those were serious longshots in anybodys book.. the "sure thing" turned out what looks like a major fail.. we will see.. no team spends 2.5 mil on both goalies and lives to tell about it.. Kings may be the 1st.

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Love...Like Carrlyn but I hate when a player is asked about another player...why bring the guy on...ask the Question(s) directly...

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

36 year old Kopi-Star is still awesome!!!

[AbsentMojo]

They win out on the roadie and they own the straight road wins overall

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Beating Vegas and Colorado count?

Well...regular season means nothing if you fail to get deep in the play-offs

Maybe but there’s still a lot of season to go. We’ll find out but it’s fun so far!

Montreal has won 24 Stanley Cups 10 more than the Maple Laughs and Les Canadiens have won 10 since 1967 when the Maple Leaves last won

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Good/Great to see Talbot getting another Shut-Out and of course Byfield scoring twice,Kopi's 3 assists,Fiala's 2 A and Drew's G & A,Moore's goal and Kempe's assist

Maybe but there’s still a lot of season to go. We’ll find out but it’s fun so far!

Fun for sure

 

[King'sPawn]

Kings playing much better than I expected. Awesome. The emergence of Byfield and Moore have been fantastic, and Kopitar/Doughty are playing like they're in their 20s again. And of course, goaltending is much more consistent.

Honestly, my biggest and only complaint at this time is PLD.
