I'm happy for Darcy Kuemper experiencing a bit of a turnaround after what seemed like "the end of the line" for him when he was traded by Washington.

That's about it.

Internet says Daccord is starting tonight. Gourde still out, Tanev a game-time decision due to illness.
 
There's few things about today's NHL that annoy me more than guys starting fights over good clean hits.

The fact three Kings were jamming at Mahura over that clean hit on Foegele while Beniers and Schwartz went down on a 3 on 1 and scored brings me great joy.

This really needs to change, league wide. The instigator at minimum, a misconduct more frequently. It’s the stupidest reaction to a completely legal, and valued, part of the game.

1000%

I dont mind that they want to get rid of fighting. Honestly, with everyone wearing visors these days I dont want to see guys breaking their hands. But good clean hits like the one Mahura dropped on Foegele are one of the best things about the game and these guys should be encouraged to drop this "you hit me, i'm mad about it" culture that's taken hold.

Sometimes you wonder why these guys are like "who, me?" when they get called for a penalty. How does Clarke miss that he just cross-checked Beniers in the face?

Cursed Burakovsky misses a sitter

I would not have believed the Kings were the best defensive team in the league had I not been made aware of it before the game. Kuemper hanging on for dear life this period.

I mean...I dont know about that one.

Yes Montour clearly cross-checks him into Daccord to initiate the contact.

But...

He's in the blue paint before any of that happens. He shouldnt be there.

Good goal apparently, but I dont like it. Stay out of the blue.
