Gee, think Scotty overreacted a bit there? What a piece of dung.

Like Bob's reaction, "These guys don't like to get up early."

Did tanner have enough games for his rookie season last year?

Tanner a rookie this season

That's one of the things foxy was talking about near the end, HE still qualifies for Calder

 

[Reclamation Project]

30 games is the cutoff. He didn't play 30 last year.

Jack Johnson is now minus-103 in 498 NHL games. He was only a minus 1 today.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

TSn said "Eight minutes into the second period, Quick joined Vachon and Kelly Hrudey as the only goaltenders to play at least 20,000 minutes in a Kings uniform during the regular season."

Don't you know? +/- is so yesterday...

It's all about Corsi and Fenwick and Fibonacci and Figurate and Catalan and...

I know, I just couldn't figure out what's the equivalent of a -103 in Corsi and Fenwick stats.

Minus Forever.

Honestly, I like Johnson, always have, and I feel like he gets crapped on by a lot of people who act like he gave himself the nickname instead of some fans. That being said... Mother Of Perl, that guy collects minuses like flies on ****.

 

[DocWest]

Hartnell is such a dingleberry. I was at the game so I couldn't see what caused him to have his tantrum until now. Have fun in Lumbus bud.

 

[kilowatt]

Honestly, even if Kopitar is out, we still have pretty solid lines.

Pearson - Carter - Toffoli
Brown - Richards - Williams
Clifford - Stoll - King
Nolan - Andreoff - Lewis/callup

 

[Alisa]

That line up definitely doesn't look bad.

Have other teams been matching their 1st line against that 70's line? I'm curious if being in the top position will affect their production at all.

I absolutely do not want Kopi out long, but it's nice to have the depth to handle these types of situations.

Im not sure about the first 7 games but columbus did today for sure

Tanner for Calder! Quick for President or Vezina, whichever comes first. Great game, excellent homestand.

If we are going to really dream lets really go for it.
Pearson-Calder
Quick-Vezina
Carter-Hart
Toffoli-Richard
Kopi-Selke
Doughty-Norris
Sutter-Adams
Lombardi-GM of the year.
How's that for the dream
And then 16-0 cup run.

Sutter is testy.

Yeah his post game interview was kinda harsh... I get he is probably pissed at most of the team, but not even a "good job" for the 70's line?

@theroyalhalf: On Kings Talk, Nick Nickson said the goal by Mark Letestu was the 1st goal against That 70s Line for the season. 16 goals for, 1 against.

Whoa

They spend a lot of time in the offensive zone putting other lines on their heals.... then with their speed they recover well in the neutral zone and get a lot of pucks back... I wouldn't say they're great on D, but with the easy "ice the puck" to Pearson move hard to contain that line.

Hope Foligno is ok...

Kopi.... Would suck if he's out for any real amount of time... I mean what... the Kings are now down to a one line team?

Richards may get a big chance to play top 6 minuets now... So instead of centering Clifford/Nolan.... He gets to center King/Brown.... I'm not really seeing the difference...

Pearson leading the team in goals!!!!

Sutter won't win it, they never give it out to repeat Cup winners. It will go to a "feel good story team" like Calgary's coach or the like.

It's funny, when Fox announced that Hartnell hit Jones on the bench, it was from a fan at the game who tweeted him what happened.

 

[kingsholygrail]

TSn said "Eight minutes into the second period, Quick joined Vachon and Kelly Hrudey as the only goaltenders to play at least 20,000 minutes in a Kings uniform during the regular season."

He's really the first since Hrudey to really be the undisputed long term goalie for the Kings so the stat isn't too surprising. The franchise is filled with short term goalies.

 

[Quattro]

So tired of this stupid ********. We pay the bills, we should know what's wrong with these guys and at the very least, how long they're expected to be out.

This X 100000000000

I am so *** sick of this "upper/lower body injury" BS.

If the NFL can give real injury information, there is no *** reason the NHL can't as well.

 

[ru4reals]

A gift to you all.

Nolan: Boop!

Am I the only one that finds this extremely funny! I might be the only one that would love Hartnell on this team. But he's not so I hate him.

I thought it was hilarious, just douchey

Brown's reaction is priceless, though.
