GDT: 2023-24 season game 36 LA Kings vs Washington Capitals @12:00pm 1/7/24

[Telos]

Clarke looks sharp and ready, you can tell he won't hesitate. Hopefully, he gets the right look soon.

 

[tny760]

did i just hear a cap go "oh no" after high sticking kempe and they still didn't call it?

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

worst passing I've ever seen

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Too much one and done for the kings, playing pickup hockey right now

More like .5 and done.

 

[tny760]

it's kind of impressive how disinterested in scoring a team can look when in the o zone

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Mclellan benching Spence is godawful

Looking for Clarke to be a savior instead of fixing his own shitty coaching and deployment

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Big ole period of nothing.

 

[Bandit]

I haven’t seen Clarke at all?

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

is tmac rolling 2 d pairs already? lol

 

[tny760]

I haven’t seen Clarke at all?

he made it 15 minutes without being demoted off gavrikov's pairing

 

[kingsboy11]

Pretty even period, although I'd say the Caps had the better chances. Should've scored early on

 

[Ollie Weeks]

I think their strategy of being gently angled to the outside by the opposing Defence is going to start paying off in the 2nd.

 

[tny760]

it must be intentional right? like they let him watch from the press box, now they dangled the 2nd pairing carrot but snatched it away after his partner takes a penalty and he gets a scoring opportunity

 

[BigBrown]

Some pretty bad turnovers, gotta be better at holding on to the puck and generating actual scoring chances.

 

[AbsentMojo]

way to build confidence with the kid - idiot.. just him f***ing play

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

clarke with less ice time than gav even with 2 min in the box

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Brandt Clarke also the only player without an offensive zone start this period

Seriously f*** this organization so much

I’m about to be outright ROOTING for a crash and burn

 

[AbsentMojo]

Clod McDumdum only plays the kids when forced to like when DD went down the team went on a tear.. PP was potent. He'll never figure it out.

 

[bland]

They are going to have to give resting Kopitar some serious consideration. He has taken a beating this year and has lost more than one step.

He’ll rest after the first round. Koalavision.

But that would destroy the cup winner talisman they keep praying to

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

the only thing left to see in this game is when the kings get a PP, will todd really motherf*** clarke

 

[AbsentMojo]

this is exactly how TM destoys a kid's confidence.. makes him the spotlight by reducing his time vs coaching him when he comes back to the bench

I don't like what todd's doing but this is a bloated cliche. if his confidence was so fragile he wouldn't have made it anywhere near the NHL
