GDT: 2023-24 Western Conference Quarter Finals LA Kings vs Edmonton Oilers @7:00pm 5/1/24 Oilers lead 3-1

[Ollie Weeks]

It’s the long term myopia that really hurts here. There’s just no fix in sight for this team for f***ing YEARS because of this PLD contract.

If nothing else, you have to have hope, and there’s almost none to be had here.

 

[Choralone]

The question will be if Rob Blake will be fired by promotion, and give him some weird title because I don't think they'll have the heart to tell him to go get lost. Shouldn't be their problem otherwise, but I also don't know what else he would do. It sounds like listening to podcasts over the past couple years, he was in trying to get an exit strategy out of the GM spot regardless. The Dubois trade and signing is a fireable offense in itself.

f*** - it was Blake all along! HE paid the refs....

 

[ru4reals]

A gentlemen's sweep. F*** off Oilers you guys couldn't even finish this team in 4. Hope the next team wipes their a** with your sh*tty team.

 

[SaltyElkHunter]

Anyone know Phil Anshutz twitter handle ?

 

[Reaper45]

I ain't even mad.

Series was over when we lost game 3.

I’m not mad because I expects it coming into the playoffs. I just hate the players effort. I chose to watch my 600 pound life over the Kings playoff hockey.

Thank you Blake and Luc for trading away one of our most valuable assets for what is likely to be dead cap space for the next 8+ years.

Great job!

Don’t forget about Kevin

I’m considering the Utah team or just pick a team in the juniors until Bluc is shitcanned. Not spending a dime on this org.

It started off with so much promise then turned to shit... hopefully Blake and Luc get the Axe tomorrow that would help alleviate some of the shit

f*** yeah, Keller, Cooley and Guenther with an actual owner spending money to win? I can watch the Durzi circus with a calm heart rate. That could be a hell of a good time.

Nobody should be surprised at what happen at the end. I hate this league.

 

[Seattle King]

I feel nothing. Because I knew we were going to lose.
This is not the fan experience I am looking for.
I have no hope for this franchise while the Robitaille-Blake cabal is making decisions.
I am glad the offseason is here, I was getting bored watching this team since about January. Even took more than a few games off for the first season this century.

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Had to return to see if the Kings could pull it out...too little time...too little firepower better Luck next year

Fiala has shown some value. PLD has not.

 

[Kudelski37]

Blake, Luc, and Berg don't forget to turn off the light and return your key as you exit the office.

 

[BigKing]

It's a problem when you hate your own franchise more than the one that knocked you out three years in a row.

Just a horrific era Bluc has been.

 

[Bgav]

Sorry guys, that was some of the most one sided reffing ive seen in a while

 

[SlimCharles]

Unreal how little I feel from losing in the playoffs. It's just sad.

A gentleman's sweep is losing game 4 after being up 3-0 and winning game 5. Kings won game 2 so it's not a legit gentleman's sweep.

 

[SaltyElkHunter]

Fiala has shown some value. PLD has not.

His nickname should be net loss

 

[GKJ]

f*** - it was Blake all along! HE paid the refs....

I'm a Flyers fan, I know foundational nepotism when i see it

yeah i'm not even mad about it

it's for the best right now

 

[johnjm22]

I'm not really that upset because I expected this result, but losing this bad on special teams is so damn annoying.

Didn't even score a PP goal the whole series.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Firing DL was a mistake and I'm tired of pretending it wasn't.

 

[Master Yoda]

I look forward to the Kings losing to the Oilers in 4 in 2025, then losing to the Oilers in 3 in 2026...

Bettman: we're proud to announce a change in playoff format starting in 2026

I don't think Canucks or Preds can even if they tried. WCF is a different beast, and I definitely see the Oilers struggling against any of Colorado/Dallas/Vegas. But even then, all three of those teams have their own weaknesses.
