GDT: 2023-24 Western Conference Quarter Finals LA Kings vs Edmonton Oilers @7:30pm 4/26/24 Series tied 1-1

[bouncesonly]

Once again, Kings special teams is a special kind of crap. 9 or 10 power plays...no goals, and their stupid f***in' penalty kill strategy......definition of insanity.

 

[Live in the Now]

The refs did a bad job but don't let them be a lightning rod for your frustration. We lost because of Rob Blake and Jim Hiller. The refs ultimately had no impact in why we lost. When you pass off the blame to someone else, people in charge might think someone else is to blame.

Oilers PP is now 7-14 and ours is 0-∞!

Just headshot McDavid next game for funsies.

Hey rob:
Time to clean out your office

I don't think EDM can ever complain about the refs fixing games again. That was garbage.

The game was over at the 4-1 goal

Those refs should also never touch playoff ice ever again

Kings lost almost completely independently of them but have to shine a light on that as well

Has Blake contacted a U-Haul or meathead movers yet?

How in h3ll did we have the 2nd best PK in the NHL?

What is with the oilers fans doing drive by comments? Funny coming from Canadians. We know well that those soft North Americans wouldn’t be running their mouth in LA.

 

[ru4reals]

Three straight years against this pretender team and it gets worse and worse every year. LOL. Hey at least the kids came to play today. Byfield and Laf showed up the rest still in Edmonton.

 

[chris kontos]

We should prank call beekins and have em show up to blakes office

 

[sinister6000]

The Kings are making Hyman look like Brett Hull.

Watch what you say, they'll freeze your bank account

Is it too much to ask to not air propaganda ads paid for by foreign governments? Every goddamn commercial. Holy shit.

 

[Schmooley]

The only positive from tonight is maybe they finally turned a corner. First time in Blakes tenure that they looked like they didnt like to lose. Well see next game if they come out with balls or go right back into their passive shell.

That's exactly when I started working again.....had it on in the background

I will get accused of 'defending Todd' again but the PK was far and away #1 in the league when he was the coach. The team was f***ing bad with Todd but it has gotten demonstrably worse since Hiller took over. The few things that were strengths evaporated.

Game was over when it became 3-0! That is when you put Rittich in net. Rittich has shutout the Oilers 4-0 this season and they don't even put him in mop up duty?

Yes to give him some reps and to rest Talbot who looks like he has covid

i think we know the answer to that one

Nah - that would be their style.. We probably couldnt beat them without 97 anyway

Byfield 2022 playoffs...2 games and scratched 5. 2023 playoffs, 1 goal 3 asssits 6 games. 2024 4 assists 3 games and Kings best forward....PP1 0 goals and QB is 2nd PP? BS. You can't keep PP1 intact and QB must be on your #1 unit. Who to take off? Matters not...#33...who has not had a good playoffs. Would remove him or Fiala, who's not been a factor
Expected Moore from Moore too.

Game #4. Rittich for sure. QB #1 PP. I'd call up Clarke and 1 of Akil / Turcotte before Reign playoff game Saturday, but that won't happen. Scratch Carl and have Clarke D7 for PP and spot duty.
