The King's PK was the same for all teams this year, including EDM. They gave up the goal line cause every other team sucked in that area, except Edmonton. You have Drai and McDavid that can walk along the goal line and absolutely f*** you up, which they did to the Kings during the regular season, especially towards the end. But for some dumb reason, Kings thought this would eventually work during the playoffs. It might have if they didn't take so many god dam penalties, refs be damned or not.
Johnson ending up here was just about the easiest bet of all time the second he was let go from Anaheim. They’ll probably straight up just invent a role for Disco Dan to fill once Coachella’s season is over.

I hope hiring Hiller backfires and the team misses the playoffs! Still hoping they upgrade to a #1 goalie.

I see Canucks, Oilers and Vegas being the top 3 teams in the Pacific(no particular order) and then the Kings will be in a race to be a Wild Card team, which I could see the Blues, Utah or Kraken beating them out for the spot. So the Kings could get goaltending with a new #1 better than Talbot and still miss. Hiller has yet to coach a full season, and unless they open it up a bit the offense will have a set back with that 1-3-1 philosophy.

This is not a serious franchise trying to win a Stanley Cup, this is a franchise looking to get a round of home playoff game revenue and stay "relevant" during Kopi and Drew's finals years. I hate everything about what is happening with this team. When opposing teams fans reactions to your head coaching hire and keeping your GM is a mixture of laughter and sympathy, you know your team is f***ed

My bold prediction is that PLD will have a career best year next season, but the Kings will lose in the first round anyway.
And management will pat themselves on the back for a job well done.

Oh I agree, I’m just saying Blake is a lazy no effort shitbag.
Oh come on, look at how much success the ducks have had recently!!

This board is becoming a hysterical echo chamber of misery (I include myself in this). We are repeating ourselves, but in an increasingly hyperbolic depressive fashion. It is spiraling quite badly and at this rate we will need some sort of mass group therapy. Perhaps we can then launch a class action lawsuit to make AEG pay for it… maybe then they will fire BLuc.
Imagine getting so discouraged/pissed/depressed....over a POSSIBLE assistant coaching hire....
Jesus Christ.....lol

It is depressing here, but I don’t blame people, even the cup teams in 2012 “-2015 were kinda mediocre in the regular season. If you think about it the Kings haven’t inspired hope in any kings fan until the playoffs started. So only a sliver of the season.

f***in blake in the presser right now "we need to raise the desire to win in this team"
yeah dude i bet that's TOTALLY compatible with playing a 1-3-1 and 11/7
"i'm not gonna get into specifics about other conversations we had but we got to see jim work first hand"
i think between the lines that's "we didn't interview anyone else"

True but it’s definitely the most hysterical it has been. It’s become a meme in its own right!

props to the media people at this presser though, i've already heard some relatively hard questions about personnel
"it doesn't matter what the system is, you gotta check" from hiller LMAO YES IT f***IN DOES MATTER WHAT THE SYSTEM IS
acting like edmonton didn't absolutely decimate the wing by just sending 2 with speed at the winger

Was Luc in the presser too?
I’m guessing he was pulled from any future pressers after the last one was a disaster.

No, it doesn't matter what the system is, if you aren't doing the fundamentals correctly, the system means f***all.....
Edmonton didn't decimate the 1-3-1, they murdered the PK......completely separate things, but again the point is, if you aren't skating, checking, passing, shooting, systems won't matter at all, and the Kings weren't doing any of those fundmentals, cohesively.

F-ing get up and hunt! Cmon Todd!
That sounds like an indictment of the players and coaches. Maybe the players dont believe in the system after the lack of success.. seems like Kempe and Fiala arent bought in if they let that out during their exit interviews.
I honestly think Bluc were just hoping to not get Edmonton. Maybe squeek by Vancouver in the first round. Hey we got futher kind of thing.
This team is running dumpster dive goaltending and touting the decision while ignoring the fact that they need to play defensive to not get obliterated.
Team doesn't have enough klillers to outscore there mistakes.
The system won't change, nothing will change. The only hope is that Byfield and Clarke can bring some more offense to the staleness.
