GDT: 2023-24 season game 63 LA Kings vs Dallas Stars @7:30pm 3/9/24

Its deep but doesnt seem so because they are never all rolling at the same time.
If they can all get hot at the same time rolling into the playoffs it would be great.

Very rarely will you see any team's top 9, roll at the same time, that's why you want that depth, If 2 of the 3 are going, that's gonna be enough to win on most nights.

Interesting stat about Dallas. They only have 28 regulation wins in 65 games. We think of them as being a great team, but that's not a very good stat.

Kings have 27 regulation wins in 62 games. Nashville has 29 in 64 games.

There's no 3-on-3 or S.O. in the payoffs.

Nice stat.

I'm pretty sure it's an unwritten law that you have to at least tag @lumbergh

Yea at least one is usually going for the Kings. Thats why they are winning enough games to be a playoff team. They will need all 3 firing on all cylinders if they wanna beat the heavies in a playoff series.

It'll be hard to compete with kcal 9's production but hockey night in canada has vancouver v. Winnipeg.
Just sayin

[GoldenBearHockey]

Not liking that

 

[chris kontos]

As always, many thanks for doing these gameday lineups and more

lewis-turc-kaliyev worked to some extent in the past, obviously small sample but that's probably the best you can do with those three

danault makes anything work, kopitar is just gonna always get the best wingers cause reasons.. PLD can't seem to make it work with anyone

englund-spence probably gets steamrolled at least once or twice tonight

/shrug

what else can you do honestly

 

[kilowatt]

Don't love Lewis with Turcotte and Kaliyev but I guess they don't trust the kids on defense just yet. Still wish we were running this:

Moore - Kopitar - Kempe
Dubois - Danault - Fiala
Turcotte - Byfield - Kaliyev
Lewis - Lizotte - Laferriere

danault-moore has been just too effective of a duo to break up imo, 61% shots for and 58% corsi for on a huge sample size. near similar stats whether they have fiala, kaliyev or arvidsson on their flank

dubois to wing probably does need to be explored though

 

[Choralone]

Gustl sighting makes everyone on this board happy!

Fiala is back for the season guys. He's dialed in.

 

[unicornpig]

remember whenever every one was shitting on 22....

 

[kingsboy11]

wow what a start!

 

[tny760]

great read from fiala and holy shit doughty actually saw the easy play instead of trying to blast it through the boards?

 

[DoktorJeep]

Fifi stays hawt!

 

[chris kontos]

Fox sounds like hes gonna pee his pants

 

[Shellz]

remember whenever every one was shitting on 22....

He’s great at giving us a reason to.

 

[unicornpig]

Besides the goal it's been all Dallas

 

[tny760]

the f*** was that non-whistle?

lewis continued straight in and he still didn't blow?

He needs to stop a blow by isn't a whistle he's not pressing

 

[tny760]

yeah i guess he should've hacked wedgewood's hand off when he was dangling the puck back there

that was sleazy from the ref imo
