This should be a good test

Just looking at the first stat PP% w NJ #1. overall.. LA been more disciplined recently, still I would emphasize staying out of the box in this game. JH pregame speech: "stay out of the box" and walk away. That should emphasize it enough.

 

[chris kontos]

Excellent game against a legit stanley cup contender. A treat to watch jesper bratt, 2 hughes brothers and an outstanding goaltender in jakob markstrom.
Just enjoy watching the quality of hockey regardless of the outcome.
Lets see how well our guys rise to the occasion

 

[shuchukfan]

I don't pay to watch games on TV, so I don't pay to watch Jack Hughes play.

 

[FSL KINGS]

They pay to watch me play

Alright, time to get in the little Hughes' faces! Just want to hear them crying all night. No Arvidsson to rough them up this year so others will need to step up.

Gonna be hard to do with the refs saving Hughes from himself and big, strong, fast Jesper Bratt collapsing into paper mache if he loses a puck and a King happens to be in the same zone

Devils and Kings are actually really tight in a lot of even strength metrics buuuut special teams are a laugher and should be a walkoff for the Devils if it holds

 

[Omni Owl]

Devs and us have similar records but I think they're the better team, though they are shaky at goal. Hughes bro's are all so dynamic and Luke is only going to improve.

Have to go take a look at that website that rates the refs home game bias - see what we're up against : )

Kings have the 6th worst share of PP time in the NHL (46%).

That's pretty amazing considering they have the 3rd best xG% at ES. You'd think they'd be generating more PP time.

 

[FSL KINGS]

We're so hosed

Lizotte & PL drew a ton of penalties.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Well shit, 6-1 Devils

Kings have the 6th worst share of PP time in the NHL (46%).

That's pretty amazing considering they have the 3rd best xG% at ES. You'd think they'd be generating more PP time.

I've been bitching a lot about the reffing lately and this is why

it's like the refs are scared to call penalties on a team getting caved in and then we get the ticky tack call when the play finally turns, it's maddening

Not surprising when you consider the amount of dumb offensive zone penalties the team (Kevin) has taken this year.

 

[ru4reals]

Aaaahhh geez well we know what's gonna happen tonight.

 

[unicornpig]

rittich coming up big.

 

[ru4reals]

Rittich coming up huge.

Oh for sure not complaining about the called take

But I am complaining about the calls we are unable to draw

Rittich big saves one end, post big save on the other

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Kings look decent thus far even solid

 

[AbsentMojo]

Jersey alt jersey pretty cool...keep an eye out for drones in the rafters

 

[johnjm22]

On the NJ broadcast said Rittich has 5 wins in 5 games against the Devils in his career.
