GDT: 2024-25 season game 68 LA Kings vs Carolina Hurricanes @1:00pm 3/22/25

I don't remember seeing the Kings this efficient offensively.

It is there passing that is killing Carolina, and what we just aren't used to seeing. Turcotte on that 5th goal and Fiala on that 6th goal is creativity that is not in their playbook.

Jeannot is one fight away from a Gordie Howe hatty.

 

[Telos]

I think it has more to do with him being healthy.

He's a very good middle six forward.

I dissed him earlier in the thread XD but while his stock has fallen a little bit with me I don't disagree at all. He is one of the biggest keys to competitiveness in the postseason if he can stay healthy, shifty, and add some vital depth scoring.

 

[dabeechman]

He is playing a different game. More assertive and straight forward. Huge pick up for the playoffs if he keeps playing this way. Looks like he has more strength than he did for the first half the year.

Hope he keeps going. Adding speed in Foegele to that line also helps.

Also hitting the net again. Rewind a few weeks and he was hitting more glass than leather.

Watch the king get shut out tomorrow lol

Oh yah? Watch Dave let in 4 or 5 softies to make it close.

Get him to fight Kuzmenko
For a double Gordie

I still take a shot (more like a half shot) for every kings goal, rip rest of my day, I'm supposed to go to a party that starts at 9 pm.

I agree completely.

He's a hell of an asset if he is on your third offensive line, where he can play a well rounded game and not in a role where he is heavily counted on to score. People still expect 30 goal Moore, and that is just not happening, it was a classic career year. In the first half of this year Byfield and Fiala were MIA and Kopitar then went stone cold offensively in calendar year 2025, right as Byfield started to come around, so Moore/Danault were still being counted on for "2nd line production". Now that things are in a good spot above since the Kuzmenko trade that line is a real big asset.

I should do this with bong hits.

I never played another drinking game involving the Kings after January 14th, 2006. Although it's still a good laugh nearly 20 years later.

Here we go.

 

[Telos]

Our video crew are awesome and savage

 

[unicornpig]

so petty by hiller, i like it

 

[Telos]

With the luck they had against Buffalo they thought might as well. Just kill the penalty.

 

[Bandit]

If this game was closer I’d be mad.

 

[Herby]

For this game, you'd have ordered door dash but passed out before it arrived.

 

[kingsfan28]

I seen much less overturned.

 

[dabeechman]

To be fair, on that last replay...it was pretty obvious Logan's skate kicked up Rittich's stick and the puck went under it.

 

[King'sPawn]

Challenging a ticky tack goalie interference when up 6-1 is pretty needless. If they score again that's a lot of momentum in a little time.

 

[Gjwrams]

6-1 game….im not challenging a borderline call and giving them a PP.

 

[johnjm22]

Tough break for Rittch on that goal because Stankoven's skate did interfere with his stick. I'm guessing the officials didn't have definitive evidence on the replay.

 

[Gjwrams]

Now here comes the lazy hockey!

I mean the guy kicked his stick up right where the puck went through. That should be as obvious as it gets.

Ah. I never saw it in any of the replays.

 

[dabeechman]

Agree. I don't see it as petty or ticky tack. That should have been called back. Much more obvious incidental contact than some of the other goals we've seen called back on phantom interference.
