COL 4 : LAK 1 - Congratulations to Jarome Iginla

[Reclamation Project]

I've seen a few people mention how the Kings are streaky this season. Let's remember they have the third best record in the league at 25-12-2.

I went to that stupid Kings game watch party at Hooters in DTLB. I hate Hooters and I'm not really a fan of watching games on TV at bars/restaurants. I wanted to use my free wings coupon though!

Kings season:

Lose 3
Win 7
Lose 3 of 5
Win 3
Lose 3 of 4
Win 6
Lose 4 of 5
Win 5
Lose 1 (yesterday)

21 of the 25 wins have occurred during streaks of 3 wins of more. So far, the Kings are a roller coaster and we're all along for the ride. Hopefully yesterday wasn't the start of another bad streak. It kind of reminded me of the first three games when the Kings simply didn't look ready. Beyond the bad penalty killing, there were a ton of breakdowns resulting in good chances off the rush. Let's just hope it doesn't continue.

wow, now that's a pattern. and beating toronto alone won't break it.

 

[Reclamation Project]

It's definitely odd, but they have the third best record in the league and it's January. Doesn't bother me at all.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Hey I'll happily trade another loss or two for another 5-6 game win streak.

Keep in mind they haven't had Carter for the last six, and they are 5-1 in that stretch.

Ups and downs of a hockey season, I'm not concerned. Kings get streaky like that in the playoffs and they are lifting another Cup in June.

One 3 game losing streak. Two and a half 2 game losing streaks and a few one game losing streaks.
No need to panic yet. Kings just finished an awesome road trip a few days ago. One bad game happened. Panic when it is three bad games

Only thing about last nights game that bothers me is that they didn't seem like they were competing. The loss is no big deal, those will happen.
But as has been pointed out that was 6/10. That is just brutal Especially when you consider that it was 4 on the road mostly in Western Canada then back home for 1 and back to Col fir those 6 games.

And throw New Years Eve in the middle of that. I am still hurting 5 days later

The reason why they didn't seem like they were competing is because they were not competing.

Eh not even irked, these guys are only human after all. Lucic gets a lot of credit from me for even playing after that rough (understatement) off season. I worry more about the health of the guys usually, its a long and arduous season.
