A point on the road is a good thing. Blowing a 2-0 lead in the third bad thing.

Going to be a shoot out tomorrow. I’m excited.
 
Just don't go on an 11 game road losing streak. Lol. Bad lost beat the hated rangers and come home healthy. We got this. Hopefully no incoming long slump. Rangers got shutout so they'll come out blazing. Hopefully Byfield can outduel Lafreniere.

This PLD whipping boy thing is crap. He will come around. He is a playoff performer. He is still settling in. Phis line mates are clicking with him. How is Aki Thomas doing in the AHL?

Fagemo also
 
Kings are tied with Boston for best P% in the league. Funny how the Kings still can’t catch up in games played with all the games they played this week.

You sign that kind of contract you're fair game. An 8 million dollar Jarret Stoll type role is not ideal.

He still has plenty of time to turn it around, I still have hope that he'll find his A game when it matters most. But if he's still centering our 3rd line in 2 years we've got some big issues.
 
Kopi is gone after next year. He is on a 8 year contract

Unless Byfield takes the number one center

9 points in his last 8 for Thomas, he’s gotten going after a slow start after the injury.

An 8.5 million dollar 3rd line center, who does none of the good things Stoll did.

Poor face off performer. No snarl. No forechecking. No defensive awareness. No f***ing heart.

PL is giving a morbidly bad ROI on both his acquisition cost and salary. It’s a god damned Greek tragedy at this point.
 
Hopefully this puts to bed some of the utopian takes people had that “players care for each others safety”. The amount of weak rhetoric we heard last year from people when we wanted revenge for Anderson getting killed by McDavid. This year for sure has shown one thing and has proved one thing. Players don’t care nearly as much about the opposition as much as some people want them to. And for that reason, I have no issue with revenge in the NHL or targeting other players. This season has been rife with that, the Kings have been the victim of this bullshit too. I think if the Kings want to level the playing field then I have no issue with them targeting other players.

And with how bad officiating is this year… I’ve never seen so much incompetence leading to so much violence this year. This is the most violent the NHL has been in a long time. I’ve never seen so many blatant cheap shots go uncalled.

I can vouch that David Perron definitely cares about player safety.
 
that's actually our problem, dops can't deal with more than 1 on the same day so they just ignored our game

optics of hammering that nail are way more important

“There has been so much violence this season. It’s so bad.”

“We should start targeting other players.”

Lmao
