It was an idea. I didn't say it was a good idea.
Who had Laferriere leading in goals and Clarke leading in assists on their Kings bingo card?
3 assists for Clarke tonight
I underestimated Laferriere's ceiling. Glad he's doing as well as he is.
Clarke's adjusting well. Funny that it was a week or two where people "saw nothing" in him.
No. Because he played 6+ games in two preceding seasons, he isn't considered a rookie.Is Clarke still considered a rookie?
He isn't listed in the rookie section on NHL . com
Love to see Laferriere earn a good/great contractLaffy is becoming a stroke of genius by the coaching and training staff in a sea of questionable decisions and possible blunders. Obviously I wish him the best possible season he can have and to become the best possible player, but I am almost afraid if he keeps this up his next contract would end up like Moore's or more.
Clarke doing well is taking some of the sting out of the Faber trade. Also a nice bounce back game from Fiala. Kuemper made some impressive saves, don't miss Dubois AT ALL.
And having Edmundson there to mentor him is paying huge dividendsClarke is growing rapidly. It's feeling like he's really settling in.
Regular season (the Koala special).Hiller is 17-3-1 at home.
I said whilst he was in college I felt there was a chance he’d end up being the best ‘Laf’ in that draft class… I was only half joking. I loved his trajectory through college and really liked his upside. I always felt he’d be a decent middle-six player that can play up and down the lineup. I’m no genius though as I also thought similar of JAD at one stage .I underestimated Laferriere's ceiling. Glad he's doing as well as he is.

Surprise win and missed it because I was into the Dodgers awesome WS clinching win after being down 5-0!
Kuemper now 3-0-2! He's has a bit of the Copley effect from a few years ago, but an obviously much better goalie than Copley.
I do have to caution the win against Vegas. They were up against Samsonov, who can be a very polarizing goalie. From the highlights I saw, it was a bad goaltending game from him. Anyway, to put up 6 on Vegas makes up big time for the stinker against the Sharks.
Don't want to cut your point off at the legs, but definitely a small sample size since we are ignoring the Boston/Ottawa losses that led into the Toronto beat down, although you could argue that the Boston OTL was a rebound from what should have been an ass-kicking at the hands of Buffalo in Game 1.I know "small sample size" but one thing I do like about the Hiller era so far is that the team responds very well after losses.

One of my lasting memories of the Koala era is the rollercoasters of winning and losing

I agree but by the letter of the (stupid) law OTL's are half winsDon't want to cut your point off at the legs, but definitely a small sample size since we are ignoring the Boston/Ottawa losses that led into the Toronto beat down, although you could argue that the Boston OTL was a rebound from what should have been an ass-kicking at the hands of Buffalo in Game 1.
