GDT: Game 80: Kings @ Flames, Wednesday 4/9/14 7:00PM PDT

@reallisa: Hearing that if it is Kings vs Sharks, series could open on Wed in SJ. Not set in stone, of course. Obviously all can still change!

Dammit, I have concert tickets for Wednesday. Clearly they didn't get the memo to schedule around my life...

 

[Nefarious]

Not sure I should bother staying up for the game. But I probably will.

Expecting a mail it in effort, these guys are just trying not too get hurt.

They shouldn't. They need to catch fire, everyone in the West is getting hot. Kings need to get hot before they enter the playoffs. They can't coast.

Pearson shows flashes of being a puck possession guy, Like a J-Dub light.

Pearson is just still a kid, doesn't have that MAN Strength down low yet, or the smarts that J-Dub has.

But I have always thought Pearson was going to be a J-Dub from the LW.

So Pearson's like J-Dub light, but has 10lbs on J-Dub and a ton more speed. Pearson's got more to learn being a rookie and all.

Smarts of J-Dub? Sorry I've watched his fake left/fake right, can't get separation, can't find his team mates (half the time Gaborik is set up 4 feet from him ready for a one timer) then dump a terrible pass back to the D that handcuffs the D man more often then not. He has become a turnover machine in the offensive zone.

Hopefully Williams will pick it up in the playoffs.

At this stage of the season, all you hope for is that nobody gets hurt before the playoffs.

Don't know if you can get that. You can see if center ice is free. Somettimes there is overlap with the MLB channels

Yup, As a fan of both teams I am hoping the flames do not get another point to try and get a better draft pick.
As a kings fan I am hoping for exactly what you just said.
The kings fan in me has more important needs

 

[KingsHockey24]

What channel # is the game on? I cant find it.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Rofl, KCOP 13.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Rofl, KCOP 13.

The Lucy show is on my channel 13.

 

[GummiBaked]

KCOP. excellence in sports broadcasting.

 

[Scottkmlps]

The Lucy show is on my channel 13.

Game doesn't start until 7.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Could be worse, like the Wally George channel, KDOC.

 

[KingsHockey24]

I must not have the channel. What a bust.

 

[kingsfan28]

KCOP. excellence in sports broadcasting.

Well we could be on the local over-air channel KDOC channel 50 that the Ducks get bumped to, so it's not that bad.

 

[Scottkmlps]

Annnnnd....the Hawks vs. Habs game goes into O.T. TSN won't be showing the Kings/Flames game until this one ends. Greeeeeaaaaat!!

Edit: That was quick. Nice save Budaj.

 

[kingsfan28]

I want a win tonight, none of this half ass play like the last few games.

The owner of the Ducks also owns KDOC
He might like if all the games get bumped

 

[Telos]

Amazing what chaos one puck flub can cause.

I agree. Williams has been the much obvious weakest link on the first line.

 

[damacles1156]

Cammy almost scored on the first shot of the game.

 

[KingKopitar11*]

They should put Toffoli on the first line.

 

[kingsfan28]

Quick will have a very busy night if the start of the game is any indication.

 

[damacles1156]

Campbell already let someone walk right into the crease.

(That will get you sent back to the AHL bud).
