Certainly wasn't a picasso, but they got there in the end. Get of the game healthy which is the most important

Cool, win the last road game of the regular. Make up game on Thursday. Calgary is out, so completely meaningless. lol

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

Just hand the Jack Adams over to Hiller already…

I'm glad Calgary didn't make the cut. If the game on Thursday had any meaning they would be all over us and play hard, now hopefully not so much.

Los Angeles Kings record for most points in a season.The record would be set back in the 1974-75 season when that Kings team had 105 points, led by head coach Bob Pulford. Can the Kings break this on Thursday?

Exactly.

Rittich staying consistent with a mid .800 performance.

La is a lottery team without Darcy stepping up this year.

I liked all the goals...another chance in LA against the Flames for Laf and Moore to get numero Venti!!!Good Luck to both!!!

gonna be an asterisk on that one.. but still cool

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

With the Win the Los Angeles Kings tied a team record for most points in a season...the 1975 LA Kings had that mark...and that summer the team got torn apart...but that was Jack Kent Cooke who couldn't leave well enough alone...Good Luck to the Kings on Thursday in LA!!!

An asterisk? Why?

 

[deaderhead28]

Andrei Kuzmenko has been a difference maker dishing the puck since he has been on the team for sure.​

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Good Night LA Kings junkies!!!

 

[aceofpace]

The last game on Thursday isn't totally meaningless. Like someone said, a win would give us the team record for most points AND home ice against the Stars if they lose their last game. (We already have home ice against Colorado.)

Fun to watch and see him create something outta nothing...Good Luck to Andrei in the play-offs loved to see him pot a bunch of goals and have many many assists!!!

3 point games increase point totals overall around the league. Edit: if you wanted to be equal, you'd subtract a point for every overtime or shootout win

Not gonna happen. Spencer Carbery will most likely win it!

 

[kingsfan28]

the Kings really need to layoff the stick fouls, way too many in the last 3 game. Danault's two bad trips tonight resulted in 2 pp goals.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Rittich staying consistent with a mid .800 performance.

That is the 2nd time this season Rittich has been the winner of a 6-5 win! I would like to see Copley get another crack at being the Kings backup next season if GMRB wants to stay cheap. Definitely let Rittich walk, Portillo probably needs another season with the Reign, if not Copley then RB should try to sign Dan Vladar.

Might want to keep in mind 5 regulars were not in the lineup and Rittich was in net.

What's Sami upside, Adam Lowry? He can be a 3C, he's only 21

22

At age 18 he was playing professional hockey already and did not look out of place. Guess that and his size made him a 2nd rounder. Looks like it is quite a shitty draft (2021) after round 3.

Glad he seems to be a NHL regular by now.

well, that's prob a bit of an exaggeration...but yeah, par for the course around here.

With that said, most teams who have the top goalies in the league, could be in the 'we'd be a lottery team without you' category.

To be a lottery team, LA would only need to have lost an additional 8 games. Based on his GAA Rittich would have yielded 38 more goals thank Kuemper, taking LA from #2 defensively to #16.

Not the exaggeration that you think it is.

You are making the assumption that the Kings would have played the season with David Rittich as their #1 goaltender - yes, that's fantasyland.
