Disclaimer: “GDT may not be 100% accurate. I got the line combos from your mom. I used to have Center Ice, Gamecenter Live, and an undercover concession worker in each arena, but this **** costs money. I will admit that my pet otter is using all up that money on his worsening opium problem. I try to not be an enabler, but I haven't had a sea urchin problem in months. Then I thought, why should I pay all this money and have a sea urchin problem to appease fans of random teams that I don't even care about anyway? Unless you are willing to take a bunch of sea urchins off of my hands, don't ***** if I get the lines wrong.” - BF

Who do we want a thread complaining about more? Tyler Toffoli's slump or Dwight King's production?

We've been decent back to back... Its a real team... We showed up tonight big time, and Quick was under worked enough that he may start and hold in down tomorrow.

Lets do this ****. Burn those ******* down.
 
Don't blow this game! 5-0 beat down feels too good to be tarnished by a bad showing.
 
Just read a couple of articles saying that Sharp and Klingberg might return today, because of course they would. :laugh::cry:
 
Can't believe how close we are to these guys points-wise considering all the villages they've burned.

Everybody burning villages, while the Kings sit back and chuckle at them for taking the regular season so seriously.

Don't know if the D will hold up tonight. Can we get 40 minutes from DD? :sarcasm:
 
Kings have had some of their best games against Dallas in the past. Lets kill tonight boys !

Kings win with another dominating performance
 
LOL but he doesn't put up a million points!!!

(Really like that he added "period")

I wonder how many coaches need to say it before a lot of sens fans at least recognize that it's somewhat possible for Drew to be even in the conversation.
 
I mean if so many coaches wrongly believe Doughty is the best D in the game, maybe Lombardi should trade him and fleece some team? :naughty: :sarcasm:


Come on... I'm not that crazy.
 
I will be at the game tonight. Hope the Kings don't suck.

If the Kings play physical, they have a good chance. Kings need to hit benn and seguin early and often.
 
Dallas likely has a bigger team than LA right now.( with Johns, Ritchie,Nemeth and Olesiak in the lineup) Lehrinen keeps playing decent hockey in goal than Dallas will be fine even missing 2 or their top 3 defensemen. Hitting Benn only pisses him off.

Good...good....

Agreed on Lehtinen, we never know if you're going to get the good version or Letemin on any given night though!

i didn't watch dallas lately, but i do recall that they can play both physical and with decent speed. it could become a fun game, but i still prefer lak's chances here, just because of lak's depth.

there is a difference between being big and playing big. Just compare Joel Colborne to Marty St. Louis
 
Just for reference for my fellow corsi lovers:

"The NHL keeps team stats for shot attempt (on goal, missed and blocked) differential at even strength, and the Kings are nearly double the second place Stars. Los Angeles is plus-710, while Dallas is plus-396.

For reference, St. Louis is plus-174 and Chicago is plus-86. The Kings spend a lot of time in your end of the ice, and anyone who has watched the Stars knows they don't match up well against big teams that like to cycle the puck.

Add to that the Kings have the heaviest roster in the NHL at an average of 209.1 pounds per player, and they are a formidable foe."
