Is this Greene's last season or does he have a couple more years?

Those two belong in the AHL. At least Greene served a purpose for many years here, his time is just up (similar to Aaron Miller).

The Derek Forbort blunder is something I can't let go of because every ****ing time I'm going to be reminded of Vladimir Tarasenko.

I need a drink.

Hard to be mad about Forbort. You can't break a rookie in with a guy who's been passed by in the game.

It's opening night. I'm gonna wait at least three games before burying anyone.

Even on our best seasons, 'banner night' has been a ****show.

I wouldn't put stock into anything till at least 25 games in.

Good or bad.

Even if the Kings went something like 17-4-4, I would be cautious.

Ok Boys we got a game. First period jitters are hopefully out of their skin. Let's get out and smash these dudes in the mouth.

Sucks I had to miss the back end (ten or so mins) of the first, my son is horrible luck when we FaceTime.

Our Boys have a chip on their shoulders, they will respond.

Thanks for the SJ goal feedback, folks

I've seen worse Kings vs Sharks games so far.

I think it's more frustration seeing that this guy was drafted 6 years ago (approaching 7 years in June) and is on the verge of being waiver fodder.

He just doesn't show anything to me that stands out as an individual and looks like any other callup from the minors who will quickly be forgotten about.

Welcome to drafting.

You had to lose your mind in 2003 then, as a kings fan. That draft is enough fail to make you root for another team.

Maybe,but misses are part of drafting. At least we didn't pick Hugh Jessiman in 2003.

Probably the last chance for Greene to show he has anything left. Most likely waiver wire for him, if he just has nothing left.

Couldn't you say that about everyone in a Kings jersey though?

Basically, but he's Doughty. He's not yet in the Brown category of you know he's not going to give the team enough. Doughty has to be great.

 

[Bandit]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugggggggg

 

[Scottkmlps]

Ahhhhhhh.....****!!

 

[Sandino]

Jeff Zatkoff?

 

[Sniffman]

Quick injured

 

[Little Psycho]

What happened to Quick???

 

[damacles1156]

What happened to Quick ?

 

[kingsboy11]

Well we're ****ed

 

[Little Psycho]

Bet it happened during that awkward slide

 

[johnjm22]

He's not on the bench. Sounds like an injury.

 

[HookKing]

Great. Zatkoff. Why is everyone crapping on Forbert? He's looked fine to me so far.

 

[damacles1156]

Boy the Kings are getting the injuries out of the way early.

 

[Sniffman]

Maybe having Zatkoff in net will wake them up

 

[KingTrouty]

Fuuuuuuuugggggggiiiiiinnnnggggg World Cup

 

[CanadianKingsFan14]

YWtf Zaktoff???
