GDT: 2023-24 season game 37 LA Kings vs Tampa Bay Lightning @4:00pm 1/9/24

[BigBrown]

There's always next game, and right now this game will be the next game. So hopefully they win this one in a convincing fashion. Somehow.

I am going to say an 8 to 5 win for the kings.

That way I can’t be disappointed when Tampa puts five goals past us and just that we didn’t score the 8.

 

[Choralone]

Well, they're at least on the road again. They're not bulletproof out of town any more, but maybe it will still help?

I can’t say this enough times. PDO does not equal luck. Teams with good PDO tend to score more than the their opponents. I think that’s how you win?

Those numbers actually tell you why the Kings are struggling. You can’t just keep pounding the puck into the goalies chest thinking that some 10% of them will go through the goalie. You have to actually find weaknesses in the opposition to score.

If putting in half assed effort and playing like monkeys with cerebral palsy is “unlucky” then sure, the kings are “unlucky”

 

[Sol]

This seems like KPs jam tbh

 

[tny760]

is kaliyev/laf/lizotte intentional?

PLD finally in the doghouse?

 

[KingsHockey24]

PL already 0/2 in faceoffs.

I can't take it anymore; put me in.

$8.5 million dollar 4th line center, baby. Remember when the Kings got Dubois because Lizotte isn't a 3rd line center?

 

[Little Psycho]

PLD centering the 4th line. Most expensive 4 line center. Wonder how Blake is doing.

 

[ru4reals]

Holy smokes. New third line is Dubois, Lewis and Grundstrom. That's gotta be the best 5th line in the league. LOL.

 

[Bandit]

Oh god Eyssiemont is definitely scoring tonight.

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

Two more falls on the same shift for kopi

 

[johnjm22]

PLD as the 4th line center means things are bad for the Kings current state of affairs, but my anger towards him as a player makes me happy seeing him demoted there.

He should be on the bench.

 

[ru4reals]

Oh god Eyssiemont is definitely scoring tonight.

Was just about to come in and say Essymont is going to score. LOL.

 

[Bandit]

Does anyone want the f***ing puck?

 

[AbsentMojo]

Holy smokes. New third line is Dubois, Lewis and Grundstrom. That's gotta be the best 5th line in the league. LOL.

Thats the 4th line

 

[Choralone]

I like the kick/block attempt with the skate, Kempe...

 

[AbsentMojo]

im on the tb feed, has Fox sad anything about pld on 4th line

 

[Kudelski37]

Does Dubois get benched or moved to wing next?

 

[Choralone]

Btw, I know I listen to some goofy shit, but I don't know what to make of the choices I've seen/heard in this thread...

 

[tny760]

that wasn't a hook at the other end... just sayin

 

[Bandit]

Does Dubois get benched or moved to wing next?

Probably gets invited to a swingers party with Robitaille and Bergevin.

Pp1 sucks the pp.

Could he develop an infection to his hockey equipment as a result of such activities?
