Speculation: Another year of this Bluc **** (The 2024 season thread)

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Huh

I get the love for Lee

But I didn't think there'd be so much hate for Malott

I actually think he's the perfect call up and may surprise some people, never mind just straight up being a good soldier and hungry dude who has earned it.

I don't like that it's vs. Colorado but he's got a rep as a good defensive forward not just a scrapper and he has at least AHL scoring touch. He may also be a little bit of a late bloomer given he graduated into covid and didn't get much of a chance to 'make it' before. I've really liked his game on the Reign. He's a bit of an old 'rookie' but there are probably worse tweeners on the bottom lines of NHL teams.

Yeah. Zero issue with it.
 
Lee is overmatched physically, Studnicka is a nobody, Fagemo is a bust. Malott can at least play a similar game to Jeannot.

Pretty spot on. Although Studnicka looked really good in camp, still lacks the size of Malott. He's a big dude even without skates and he'll be fine in that role. Blake wanted him as soon as he was available and signed him to a 2 year deal.
 

Tl;dr Kings planning for preseason next year, with a few neutral sites (Bakersfield, Boise, etc). Dates seem mostly tentative.
I went to Bakersfield, once

Sold a home there once for a friend

The neighbors were begging me to come back and do more

But there was no amount of money in the world that could get me to go back there on purpose

Sorry to any present company that may live in Bako, you're just built different. It's like if they took 1990s Fontana and dropped it in the Midwest 100 miles from anyone.

Merle Haggard would disagree.

However they have some good Basque food places. So they have that going for them.

Hey now. Leave the Midwest out of this. It's March here and we are getting snow on Sunday... It's currently 73 degrees...

I have a question for my streaming planning since FUBO sucks and doesn't have TNT/TBS

Do you guys remember is the first round of the Kings playoffs on FanDuel or does it go to National broadcast?
IIRC is goes to National starting in round 2
