Alright LA fans, you guys need a win and the Canucks need a god damn loss. Why can't we get along this one time? Plz power the spirit bomb that is Anze Kopitar.
 
They're gonna lose this, look like complete trash. Get McBad away from this team and let Gravel play.
 
I was gonna be angry at Fox Sports West for showing poker instead of this game (at least here in San Diego), but I guess they're doing me a solid, making me only listen to this debacle.

Guess you haven't seen the post-clinch Kings :laugh:

The recipe is play Kings hockey early, let the team hang around in a game, stop playing smart and start resting players, lose late. The difference this game is we let you back in in the 2nd instead of in the third!
 
It's late in the season already, but if I was Sutter I would have benched mcnabb and given Gravel a try.

Agreed, but its too late in the season unfortunately, the kid is never going to see the ice or the playoffs (barring injury). Its a shame, he's a better option than McBad and has more upside. Sure there would be growing pains, but we've been enduring McBad's growing pains for quite some time.

Quick stuck on 39 win, Kings stuck on 46 wins. The Kings are doing everything they can to preserve the records. At this rate they'll lose the next 3 and go into the playoffs on with a 2-10 record.
 
Why are you guys playing well lately? :shakehead

We're the Canucks, we can't do anything right post 2011. Sorry fam, but I promise you this sucks so much harder for us.

At least with the Canucks coming on in the 2nd, there is a glimmer of hope they'll 'crap' the bed
 
This is no way to play going in to the playoffs, coasting like this is going to bite them in the ass.
 
I'm going to bed. I'm on the east coast, and this "effort" isn't worth staying-up for. Goodnight everybody
 
Ah, should've known it was Brad Meier. Wondered why Lucic was getting scolded repeatedly for merely existing in front of the net.
 
It's been a rare performance from the Kings when they allow less than 3 goals a game of late.

As the young kids say, the defense is not on fleek. Have to laugh at those who kept reassuring the skeptics that the blueline will be fine.

It's been more rare blowing leads before the 3rd. Usually they give up 2 or more and lose the game then.
 
I understand resting players after clinching, the last few games should be taken seriously. Would be nice to go into the POs with a little momentum.

They haven't been trying since clinching. Should they lose , they'll be 2-6 , including 4 straight road losses. Plus they way they've lost games when either having the lead or tied in the 3rd.
 
Just got back. I see the Kings are going to King. I'd get frustrated but I can't get too worked up when the fans across the aisle have to watch their team miss the postseason and then mess with their draft position by beating Anaheim and San Jose and threatening to beat L.A.

I see a Canuck just gave Tanner Pearson a chiropractic neck adjustment.
