GDT: Game 45: Wednesday 1/18/17 Sharks @ Kings 7:30 PM PST

[Bandit]

Welp, at least Gaborik scored. Maybe he'll get goin.

One could hope. His shot looks really soft, whcih worries me more than his footspeed.

Drew...

Not going to win many games when your team produces numbers like this...

So they have been under what the league average is. 9% is what average has been. And in 2012 they were barely above that.
I'm more concerned with how much below 9% it is in being 8.2%.

 

[KingsFan7824]

Doughty just always goes for the highlight reel slap shot, and isn't as good at doing that as I think he pictures himself as being.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The Kings almost gave up a goal to a goon who has no goals on the season...

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

LOL, this team's shooting is awful.

 

[Little Psycho]

King choking no surprise

 

[Bandit]

Great save by Jones.

Carter looks pissed. Meanwhile Kopitar is chugging a bottle of mild-mannered pills.

 

[kingsfan28]

Jones knew King wasn't going to score from there, just like the rest of us.

Drew...

"I shoot it wide when open on the pp" Doughty. Burns would've burried that!

 

[Bandit]

Looking forward to another "pull the goalie, can't get in the zone, get scored on" situation in a few minutes.

 

[Little Psycho]

Looking forward to another "pull the goalie, can't get in the zone, get scored on" situation in a few minutes.

With Muzzin and Martinez on the ice. Or DD tries to enter their zone, flubs the puck and they go the other way.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The Kings of giving up outnumbered attacks.

 

[Bandit]

The Kings of giving up outnumbered attacks.

Possibly the most disconcerting thing about this game.

 

[tsanuri]

I can't remember the last time I saw this give up odd man rushes in this type of quality.

 

[Little Psycho]

Outworked outskilled

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

When was the last time the Kings pulled the goalie for the extra attacker and scored?

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Zero faith in them scoring

Yeah, me too. That's why I'm already in bed, just keeping up with the game online.

What is potato?

 

[KingsFan7824]

When was the last time the Kings pulled the goalie for the extra attacker and scored?

It's basically a PP situation, so why would they score?

 

[Bandit]

Sweet. Looking forward to the big homestand where we can rack up the points...

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

It's basically a PP situation, so why would they score?

And just like their PP opportunities, they couldn't even get a shot on net in the dying moments of the game.

This team keeps playing itself out of a playoff spot.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Feels like this stretch of road games will put a fork in the season

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

So two games in a row where the opposing goalie makes big saves in a key moment and they get a game winner off the side of the net on the goal line.

POor execution all night. Kind of annoying to watch this team seem to push back the Sharks pretty well the previous two games then go right back to odd-man-rush city tonight.
