I am not expecting us to win this series, but I am trying to be a more positive Dan
So, let's look at the bright side like our friends in the old commercials
In the first series:
The Kings won game 1 before getting shelled in the next two, then winning 2 in a row and losing 2
They did this without Doughty
Their coach made adjustments for Games 6 and 7 while our koala stuck to the same old game plan like a protestor who glued himself to a road
In last year's series
We won game 1, lost Game 2 , Won game 3 before their coach made adjustments
while our koala stuck to the same old game plan like a cat stuck in a tree without a firefighter.
IIRC Fiala was far from 100% in this series
The possible positives:
This team is healthier than it's been in a long time and we can potentially finally ice the roster than we were supposed to go in to the season with.
For my boy
@FSL KINGS , Trevor Lewis is back and Trevor has had some big playoff moments in his career
This one is a reach bigger than the grand canyon, but the Kings supposedly trade for PLDisaster for the playoffs and hopefully he flips as switch and becomes playoff Adam Deadmarsh in this series (we can always hope, right)
The Kings are much deeper on F, D and have better goaltending than the last 2 years (yes Edmonton is deeper as well)
The Koala is gone and Hiller isn't afraid to make adjustments or call a timeout
Durzi can't be put on on the PK and especially not any 5 on 3 PKS
