Kings!
Glad they won... if they weren't in a death spiral people would call that a good road win. I'll take it!

I'm curious how Hiller would've deployed guys. 100% kopitar doughty kempe to start but after that?

Almost choked on my dinner. They’re literally doing the gold star chart.

Pretty surprised Arvidsson was that good in his first game back.

i mean that's what he does right? spins around on his edges a lot, flings a bunch of shots at the net
honestly danault can make anyone look good right now, amongst the shit contracts he's pretty insane value

Byfield wearing Trevor Lewis’s #61 sweater in the postgame interview. Thankfully he doesn’t have hands like Lewis.

It was an idea. I didn't say it was a good idea.
Yes, but he sat as soon as the Kings took the league in the 3rd period. Not trustworthy with a one goal lead, I guess.

Yeah, In that firesale proposal someone posted in the Trade thread, everyone and their mother were offering deals for Danault.

With PLD actually playing decent hockey, and RV back, it makes the Kings a much better team.
I was also surprised Rittch came back and had another good game after the Buffalo debacle. He's been excellent in each of the Kings last 3 wins.
Only LA's 5th regulation win in their last 20 games.

7 million dollar player that you gotta pull with a 1 goal lead in the 3rd, FML

That doesn't match the eye test much at all imo. Moore didn't do much, Kempe was awful besides his drive on the first goal, and Arvy looked great on the forecheck

Can you blame Hiller though? Fiala is that kind of a player.

I agree.. I threw out Clarke out of personal bias and got it right.. I did think he played a solid game overall.
Got me there! Kings are now what? 5-15 in their last 20?
Better plan the circle jerk.

Fiala is an embarrassment.
You can't have him out there when you're trying to hold a lead because he'll either put you on the PK or make an idiotic turnover.

I don't like the PLD and Fiala comparison. One is a dynamic player with emotion that takes dumb penalties at times because he's thin skinned. The other is a big lazy guy who contributes when he's (somewhat) motivated and takes lazy penalties because he's lazy. Fiala will fight through a check or a hook and do something stupid. The other falls down all the time when nothing is going on and then uses his size to obstruct someone because that's the most convenient avenue for him.
