He has had a terrible game, but come on guys, some of you sound ridiculous. Earlier in the year it was, "He is a midget who weighs 150 pounds he won't do anything in the NHL" he has proven everyone who said that wrong, now he is being ripped for having a bad game. Saying Gaudreau sucks based on this game would be like calling him the next Joe Sakic based on his hat-trick against the Kings.

You're right. But it's a backhanded compliment. If Johnny Gaudreau wasn't kind of a Kings Killer, you wouldn't hear so much griping about him. :)
 
You never answered my question from earlier.

telling me what would i have done as a GM means i`m somehow blaming all this on Dean Lombardi?

i would do nothing that DL hasn`t done; which is calling out Quick for being very average

Dean said it himself...Quick is average this year...yet you guys blame everyone but Quick

i just find it funny

there's nothing to do...i'd probably upgrade the D and force a trapping system and force Quick's stats up (cause obviously Quick won`t do that himself)

but really there`s absolutely nothing to do...i would have played Berube a game...Jones a game...because those guys won`t give me anything under .800% at this point right? The Kings can win with anyone in goal

seeing how Scrivens and Jones had inflated numbers before infront of a stellar King's D just confirms we have to face the fact about Quick (Quick was a product of our amazing D)

and on the 2nd goal...btw...it`s all about positioning...his positioning is terrible

watch Price...then watch Quick...then go back and watch Price again

maybe you guys would stop ganging up on me, if you just understood what i meant by faulting Quick

Dude, give it a rest. He hasn't even finished ONE nhl season yet.

Yes we know, he is going to suffer a career ending injury from the guy that he just stole the puck from on that last goal.

I just don't understand what people have against him on this board, yeah the trademark thing is stupid but why so much negativity for a good young player. I would say the same thing if people on the Winnipeg board randomly hated Toffoli.

And people did say he was to small for the NHL, that it wouldn't translate and people are dead wrong, you have went from saying he won't be able to play in the NHL to now saying he is going to suffer a career ending injury from a bigger defenseman. Which is exactly what happened to St. Louis, Kane, Cammalleri, Whitney, Zuccarello etc. I am not debating that some smaller players can't play in the NHL, but he clearly can, and he will put on weight, get bigger and get stronger like Kane did. You really think he is going to suddenly start sucking after 50+ very good games as a rookie, it really doesn't work that way.
