If only we had a young, right shot forward that was a natural goal scorer.. hmm.

If only the Kings had brains enough to have let him play another 3-4 seasons in Sweden rather bringing him over at 20 years old...stupid move...fighting for spots with our other young players instead of spreading them out and having them play lots of ice time in their own Leagues instead of the AHL where 99% of Forwards go to "Die"!!!

I remember players the Kings drafted way back that didn't have the greatest stride...Robitaille,Nicholls...but they were Forwards and they could score goals in bunches...Clarke is a D-man isn't strong enough and hesitates and isn't very good Defensively and once he loses a step he's a career AHLer or KHL bound or Switzerland or something...he's my whipping boy cause the Kings could have had Dylan Guenther a RWinger that can play LWing and shoots Right...all Blake needed to do was take him instead the Kings took Clarke to add to the 8 RD-men they already had...Geus some people are just dumb dumb...

And Chromiak waits for the chance he'll never get...he should have stayed in Slovakia and played a tonne and developed lots to the point were the Kings would have been beating down his door...right now LA is looking for a RWinger but let Arvidsson walk because of injuries...or whatever
 
Maybe the Kings can trade Clarke and bring back Dudas a RC and his teammate Otto Salin a RDman he can't be any worse than Clarke at Defending...but I guess Brandt ain't worth a hill of beans these days so we wait until he develops and becomes the "Hair" Apparent to Doughty
 
Yet another classic of theself fulfilling f***ery of using 11-7.
Don't play Lewis, Turcotte and Jeannot much because the foward lines are scuffed, because you're running odd numbers, so the other forwards that are playing are gassed from going every other shift, because you're actually only playing 8 forwards, and one of those forwards is a 37 year old.

And you don't play Clarke because umm... well... but you do play Doughty 21 minutes (-3)

So in reality it's playing 8-6. Although not giving Lewis ice time is a net positive.
(first game of a b2b btw)

I love extrapolating the data of the boxscore to show the r*tardation of Jim Hiller.

You ok there pal,

Jeanot played 13 minutes, his season average is 11:19
Lewis played 13:43, his season average is 10:00
Turcotte played 12:00 and his season average is 12:00....

Doughy played 21 minutes and his season average is 23 minutes....'

I mean be f***ing accurate will you? Only one forward hit 20:00 and was Fiala exactly at 20:00....

Tell me again how they only played 8 f***ing players...jesus christ.

You mean the same Arvidsson who has missed 15 games do to...get this....injuries and only has 7 goals and 19 points? The dude has been crushing it with McDavid.👍

It seemed like the Lewis line was out there as much as Byfields line. Hiller finally put the best line together and treated them like a 3rd or 4th line. The broadcast before the game had Kopitar line as the #1 line. The whole charade with the legacy vets is coming to roost. Curios to see who they decide to build around and what they give up in this next week.
Kopitar gets 7 million next year also.

This whole nonsense of trying to win again for Kopitar and doughty has ruined a decade of development

Wasn't able to watch tonight, was it as bad as the scoreline indicated?

The game was quite enjoyable. Jeannot managed to take two guys out at the same time. Spent the rest of the time drinking rum & coke & sending "retro" music to a niece. She enjoys that stuff. Hit some posts. Played an actual playoff team.

Edit: 2 goals were probably Burroughs fault.
 
The Kings net PP% on the road is 5.2%

That's not a typo. And yes that's the worst in the NHL.
