Game 4 10/20/16: Los Angeles Kings 4 @ Dallas Stars 3 F/OT

[Vamos Rafa]

Does anyone know if those Kings stores from that old commercial still exist?

 

[Trolfoli]

I hope Seto starts getting some shots. He has great speed and is making some nice plays.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Roussel should have been tossed after his first meltdown; he could have REALLY injured McNabb throwing all his weight into horse collaring him several times, and then throwing blows from behind. Then, he comes back, and takes a high shot at Muzzin after the whistle, has a meltdown in the box...

Really, REALLY fortunate neither guy got hurt. Those were cowardly, gutless plays...that I'm starting to expect from a number of the Stars (Oleksiak going after McNabb's back, then throwing punches when he's on the ground...Benn's forearm shiv to Brown was nice too).

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Does anyone know if those Kings stores from that old commercial still exist?

The Slap Shops are loooong gone. They closed in the mid-90s when the Kings went bankrupt.

Now you can get overpriced merch from the Team LA store.

 

[theMajor]

Kings played like they really wanted it tonight, havent seen that hunger in a while. keep it up!!!

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I had a random flashback.

Anyone remember those Green Burrito commercials with just the green dot in the middle singing?'

Ugh, fever dreams. I also dreamt the Kings won tonight and Brownie made a great pass to Gilbert and Dowd.

 

[Herby]

Just watched the highlights as this game was a distant 3rd to the other sporting events tonight.

Happy to see a Kings d-man not glued to the blueline and actually jump into the play on the PP, what a novel concept.

Kings will have no issue signing TP and TT to long term deals, even if it means moving 77 and 27, there is no way they are letting either go.

 

[Choralone]

Too early?

 

[LAKings88]

Dowd should be third line center.

Entertaining game at least.

Kings still won't sniff the playoffs.

That is all.

 

[Fishhead]

Dowd rubs off on his line. I can't remember the last time I saw Brown throw the body around and look good at the same time.

 

[Model62]

Good game from the skaters. Let's see if it continues Saturday.

Need more from the goaltending.

 

[Johnny Utah]

They need to do something about the 3rd line. Andreoff and Brown on either side of Dowd.

God I want Brown gone for good, the 3rd line could be Andreff-Dowd-Lewis. He just brings any line he is on down.

Maybe move Brown up with Carter and Pearson and move Seto down to the 3rd line.

 

[Bandit]

It's just doesn't seem like that's enough. Brown's actual salary is still higher than his cap hit next year. It's a $6m cap hit for 5 more seasons. A single 1st round pick in an apparently not good draft isn't enough. And it's 100% of the contract Vegas would take, yes?

It's an expansion team, but they have to exist with the cap too. They just hired a guy that ran a cap site.

I don't care if vegas sacrifices every virgin in Utah, they are going to suck for at least 5 years. Brown would be long gone before they have any cap issues.

Always wanted to try that 3X Big Ed Burrito challenge or whatever it was. Might have been able to do it back in the day.

 

[Papa Mocha 15]

Rousset was reckless tonight.

LA weathered the storm, but I would have liked to see more improvement on the PP.

Overall, not bad.

 

[Steve Zissou]

Dowd def. elevates his other line mates around him.

Also I'm a fan of Gilbert aka Voynov 2.0 jumping into the play.

 

[BigKing]

They played well. Nice win and great hit by McNabb.

 

[Kingsfan1]

They played well. Pearson is slowly breaking out and becoming a more important player. Love the kid.

Sutter still pisses me off and Forbort played 8 mins not sure why .

Still dont think we make playoffs , once and IF Vancouver and Edmonton slow down maybe we will finish 9th or 10th

I don't think Vegas is going to suck.

Due to cap issues they are going to have some pretty damn good players to pick from.

I guess not everyone was happy about the ot win:

It's Sutter one mistake rule with rookies. Expect him to sit for the next 3-5 games.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Lindy Ruff can get bent. Between Roussel and Oleksiak he has no room to talk and should keep his big ****ing mouth shut.

Exactly my thought.

If you're going to endorse cowardly ******** as retaliation to clean hits, you don't get to complain.

 

[KingTrouty]

get pearson signed asap before he plays himself into more money

been saying this for some time, now, KC
