All of our players have an insane amount of hits compared to normal.

They did stop the drivebys and started finishing checks after the first goal, it was noticable and it was everyone, not just like Laf and Tonka

hiller's coup de grace: insert kaliyev exclusively to take another kneeing suspension

That’s why we haven’t seen him

They’ve been giving him the Winter Soldier treatment

If you get 1 more goal then it gets interesting. 1 more goal and then the crowd and the players are going to start to think. I'm not holding out hope for a 3rd period comeback, but they could make a game out of it. Even if the scores stays the same, just don't take it lying down and fight back.

They aren't going to stop McDavid, we have three years of evidence to show that. The Kings need to structure their lineup and offensive philosophy to trying to win these games vs Edmonton 5-4. Adjusting by putting your 3 best forwards on one line, and taking Laf off the 1st line is a nice start. But it would be nice to add Clarke's dynamic offensive skill-set.

This team does not have the offensive talent up front to not be playing Clarke.

Dubois was alive on his first few shifts then fell asleep again.

Lafreniere handicaps the top line.

I have the sports net feed.. did anyone discuss the rule regarding the disallowed goal? Its supposed to be intentional if its disalowed.. Lewis had his eyes closed

foxy was waffling on about it for a bit and how it can't be "directed" into the net

If the Kings want this system to work, their player acquisitions have been counter productive at best.

The lack of aggression coupled with the current deployment has resulted in some of the worst professional hockey I have seen since I could truly appreciate the game.

Dang, missed the Kempe goal putting my daughter to bed. She currently wants to be a construction worker so I read to her from a pop-up book I got for her about building a house. We covered clearing the land and building the foundation.
