GDT: 2024-25 season game 43 LA Kings vs Seattle Kraken @7:00pm 1/18/25

We have a Fiala problem right now, but we have a much bigger Hiller problem.

Keep going another 2 or 3 more steps up the ladder : )

100%. The failures of this team are unbelievably self inflicted. From bad formations to bad line ups to awful game management

Like the Koala Hiller has a defensive system that gets solid 5x5 results... but is brutal in 5x4 just like before. It will get you to 3rd place or WC and a nice 1st round exit. Half way through the season and the PP system and personnel have been static w no sign of getting better.

Not to worry, VGK loses to CHI…EDM loses to VAN….they must have stupid coaches too! Yay, we aren’t the only ones.

The Kings are doing an amazing job of destroying all the creativity and offense out of Brandt Clarke's game

Hiller is definitely outsmarting himself, too cute.

92 on wing?

Hiller is such a clown. Way to make a loss entertaining.

Fiala had a good game at least.

Disappointing they couldn't make a good road trip out of it. But they're back home.

Weird comment, but not surprised I guess. You'd prefer a coach that does not try new/different things when shits not working? I mean, didn't you have that with TM?

Moving Spence to PP1 was a good adjustment to try to use his shot. Then Spence sat on the right point & Fiala sat on the left point where neither one was in a position to one-time the puck.

Clarke on wing is more a symptom of the 11/7 & limiting your choices at forward. Turcotte's benched or banged up & you're out of options.

92 was lost on the cycle. Maybe give him a few shifts in practice before tossing him out in a game. It wasn't working. Didn't help the shift. Just Hiller throwing stuff at the wall because his choices backed him into a corner.

Throw away game. Not worth the effort.

nothing to see here. They put Clarke on wing later on because Laff was out and they don't have enough right shots at either the right time or the right place. Bust Hiller's balls for not dressing Thomas in Laff's place.

We know who's fault the lack of right shots is and it has been for years.

How do you know it was never tried in practice?

poor results from a boring team with weak aspirations. together with a minimal prospect pool and little spending room under the salary cap.
everybody wants a part of this lol
