[fieldset=COACH & PLAYER QUOTES]

" Nashville’s a hard working team. We didn’t match their compete [level] in the first, and that was ultimately the difference in the game. It’s similar to the Anaheim game. We have to get to another level as a group. It starts with individual preparation. I think that’s Nashville’s M.O. as a team. Again, that comes back to competing and willing to be a bulldog in the dirty areas and driving the net. There were instances of that, but it really needs to happen on a consistent basis, especially against a team like this."

"I think we’ll complement each other well, Obviously, he's a very offensive guy. He's always up in the play. I'm going to be back there a big body, banging guys around and being the physical presence, hopefully, in our pairing. Having a guy like that to be paired up with is pretty exciting. I couldn't have asked for a better situation to come in to, hopefully we complement each other well and can be a solid pairing for a long time."

"We need our top guys to be a hell of a lot better players, That's clear ! That’s not me. That’s clear. If you think about your top offensive guys, what they’re on for, for and against, and what [their] zone time [is], and the way you break things down, you need a lot more from them."

- UPCOMING SCHEDULE -

NOTE : Regarding LARGE SIZE IMAGES / YELLOW RE-SIZE IMAGE BARS ABOVE PICS, let me offer up one nice little suggestion ...
This will get rid of those pesky yellow resize bars over the top of some larger pictures ... as they annoy the hell out of me and maybe they do you also ?
- Go into/click on your "USER CP" {control Panel} up top left in the red bars
- on the left under 'Settings & Options' click on "Edit Options"
- scroll down to 'Thread Display Options', and then 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- click on the 'Drop Down List Box' over on the Right of 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- select it to "KEEP ORIGINAL SIZE"
- SAVE your selections !
There ... now don't that look MUCH BETTER

Go Kings...great game day as usual. Thx

 

[Ron*]

9:30 a.m. start.

Good thinking, NHL. You just ensured about a 0.01 market share rating in Los Angeles.

 

[King'sPawn]

As I posted in the Pre-game thread:

What I would really like to see is for the Kings to score first. They've done it only 3 times so far this season, and the last time was when they beat Phoenix.

Granted, they lost the other two times they scored first, but they definitely play a lot better when they're not chasing the opposition.

 

[Crosby87Domi11]

Happy to see Ellerby on the kings roster. Florida never gave him much of a chance to prove himself and I hope L.A gives him one

Well he's paired with Doughty, so he's certainly getting one to start.

They won the Cup last year and look apathetic this year. That about covers it.

LOL.

Try not to sound too positive.

You are going to have to be more specific. The History of the team ? Players ? Coaches ?

Current Roster players ? I assume you know Ellerby's partner Doughty right ?

 

[damacles1156]

BTW is it me or do the Redwings have a TON of injuries ...

That injury list is rather long.

 

[Crosby87Domi11]

Yes I do know that and im absolutely thrilled. but how about just like current players and the coaching staff?

 

[Muzzinga]

9.30am?

aintnobodygottimeforthat.jpg

Id be amazed if the team is able to bring any energy at a time like that

 

[damacles1156]

I'll just cover the important one's

Start with Coaches:

Head Coach: Darryl Sutter, if you have been watching hockey for any period of time, you know exactly who he is. Former Calgary Coach/GM.

Assistants: John Stevens/Davis Payne, Both are former Head Coaches. Stevens(Philly) Payne(Blues).

Goalie Coach is mother Fuc$%ing Billy Ranford(awesome).

On occasion you will catch Bernie Nichols traveling with the team(former King great).

Players: Important one's

Anze Kopitar: First Slovenian Player to ever reach the NHL.
The Kings number One center and two way beast.

Mike Richards: Center, Richards has won every single championship Hockey has to offer(only person to do so).

Jeff Carter: Sniper plays wing and Center, Mike's Best friend.

Drew Doughty, D: Number one Defensive player.

Dustin Brown ,Wing: Captain of the team, Hits people.....That's what he does.

Justin Williams, Wing: JDub, Crusty Veteran that will wow you some nights, then piss you off the next.

Simone Gagne, Wing: Walking wounded, we are just hoping this guy stay's healthy.

Slava Voynov, D, Young exciting Defensive player. If Ellerby fails with Drew, He will be paired with Voynov.

Jonathan Quick, Goalie: He stops pucks with Mind control....

That's the important one's

Anymore questions just ask, we are a friendly bunch. And Welcome to the Kings board.

Thanks I cant wait to see Ells in a kings uniform for a game! I got a lot of heat from Panther fans because ironically enough abt a week and a half ago, I started a thread called "Keaton Ellerby: Keep him or trade him?" and I said he should be traded so some ppl are blaming ME for it

Ha well that makes sense.

I've been browsing that thread you were referring to, and it seems like Panthers' fans have pretty positive opinions about Ellerby over the first few pages.

[King'sPawn]

Welcome to Kings fandom Ellerbyfan4. Try not to get too discouraged by the negativity

Damacles already gave a good rundown of the Kings personnel. I'll just add a little bit. Darryl Sutter LOVES to have a stay-at-home defenseman with a mobile puckmover. If possible, he likes to have leftys with rightys. So Ellerby, in 5-on-5 situations, will mostly be paired with Drew Doughty (#8), Slava Voynov (#26) or Alec Martinez (#27). If he's going to be used on the penalty kill, he could possibly be paired with Rob Scuderi (#7) or Davis Drewiske (#44), as those are our more defensive defensemen who are currently healthy.

Since he's not very effective offensively, he's not likely to be on the powerplay. We lately have seen the Kings use 4 forwards and 1 defenseman on both units (Doughty on the first and Voynov on the second).

The Kings are struggling now with two key defensemen out with injury. Offensively, they are lacking confidence again, but we have a bit of a roster shake-up with the hopes they'll be kick started. Once they regain that confidence, they will be dangerous.
