Bob Miller must be in heaven here with all the organ music lol

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Fourth line didn't waste time giving up a scoring chance.

 

[Bandit]

Somebody tell Muzzin that Boyle hasn't been a King for a while now. No need to set him up in the slot.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Oh Muffin. No pressure and you do that?

 

[Bandit]

We look quite ******.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Muzzin practicing his golf swing on that penalty.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

We look quite ******.

They must've had an early Thanksgiving dinner before the game. Theyre being outskated by Tampa.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Ehrhoff was so surprised he intercepted that pass, there was a delay in his reaction to it.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The Kings really suck at faceoffs.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Their faceoff play is really worrisome. They shouldn't be that bad. Losing Stoll for faceoffs sucked, but he was the 3rd liner. Kopitar and Carter should be winning them more often than not.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Gaborik you dope.

 

[Bandit]

Seriously? Jesus.

 

[Bandit]

Gaborik you dope.

Eh. That was just bad luck.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

That was a ****** clearing attempt from McNabb. Reminded me of the 90s Kings who would constantly trap themselves with their faile clearing attempts. Thankfully Brown recovered it and the PK has looked good thus far, faceoff losses aside.

 

[Bandit]

Is Stamkos auditioning for The Flying Linguini Brothers?

 

[kingsholygrail]

Does anyone on this team backhand?

 

[kingsholygrail]

I'll take 0-0 at the end of the 1st.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Ah, Thanksgiving family drama. Pass the mashed potatoes.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Someone give me some corn.

 

[kingsfan28]

I'm not gonna crucify McNabb, but that was a pretty weak effort.

Even later into the period, Doughty gives him a solid breakout pass , McNabb then proceeds to make the next pass into the skate of the breaking forward and its turned over. You can't pass that bad when you have zero pressure on you.

 

[Winger23]

3rd game in 4 nights not sure what some of you are expecting....

He's kind of forced to play in a position he shouldn't be in on the top pairing.

McNabb is fine as a bottom pairing guy, but he just seems finicky when the puck is on his stick while playing tougher minutes.

Given how hard the team's blueline has been hit since 2014, I guess they no other option but to try McNabb there. Growing pains.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Kings players throwing (shade) love Patrick O'Neal's way.

Gotta say, I'm missing seeing Reclamation Project's dry sense of humor.

 

[kingsfan28]

Better faceoffs please.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Wonder what Jim said to make Bob laugh enough to sound like he's holding back giggles while making calls..
