Pearson looked much better today, hopefully he's starting to get acclimated to the NHL game. Keep moving your feet Tanner

Quick is a wall that only Regehr can penetrate

Felt like more of a solid road type victory, but I'll take it any way we can get it
 
KingKopitar11 Doughty bails out Muzzin again. ****ing loser.

Kingsfan 28 can you make a video of all the saves by Drew today. This needs to go into the Karlsson thread.

I second this.

Drew was making diving saves to bail Muzzin's ass all game long.

Keep it up, boys!
 
Still need more goals, but defense (except Muzzin) and Quick still standing tall. I think the extra work in the Olympics is going to springboard Quick down the stretch and into the playoffs.
 
Playing with Muzzin is a great challenge for Doughty! Covered Muzz's flubs about 3 or 4 times today.

Glad we won the game. Boss.
 
If we could get someone for Muzzin, that'd be great. Especially if we can get a good defenseman for Drew to be paired with.

Methot - Doughty
Mitchell - Voynov
Martinez - Greene

I could live with that.
 
I don't understand how people can still defend him? He's up there with Corvo for Kings defensemen who don't really play d.
 
Good good win! But my goodness Muzzin is sooo stinken aweful! Muzzin for a bag of pucks! Do it Dean!

The last time the Kings iced a dman who was as inept as Muzzin was Randy Jones. They have no place playing top 4 minutes, and the coaching staff is slowly realizing this by reducing his minutes.
 
Lol! Why did they double take the replay of Voynov congratulating Quick? R they trying to say something?

Best game for Pearson by far. DD and RR were great. Muffin sucks. PP sucks.

On to the next one.
 
Pearson looked good.... The kid is pretty fast. If he starts clicking with Carter their speed could work well together on the rush.

Muzzin... it'd be nice if he could have a year or 2 on the lower pairings before just being thrown out on the top pair. Just don't think the Kings should dump him without giving him a chance to develop.

Nice to see Martinez
 
Muzzin was pretty average in the AHL already. I've never liked him but some said to give him some time. He just doesnt have it, never had, never will. Kings traded Hickey instead of him. Hickey is no world beater by any means but he's more than solid (+1 after a 6-1 loss tonight and 20 minutes of ice-time). They should have kept him and his skating too. Ask any Islander fan how they think of him.

Muzzin does have some strenghts, but defending is the main task for a defender.
 
Pearson looked like a player today. 100x better when he moves his feet.

Quickie was big, made a lot of important saves look casual.

Still need more scoring punch but I'll take that win. Had stretches of looking much better followed by the usual struggles with a speed team (dominate until odd-man-break).
