Obnoxious blonde rink broadcaster: how do you like the game?

PBR bullrider: this is great, I love hockey

Obnoxious blonde rink broadcaster: ahhhhhh, good for you

End interview.

You guys can complain about the kings play all you want but the broadcast is equally ugly.

Not a whole lot for me to enjoy lately.

Carrlyn’s great. Not sure how much you’re expecting from these segments, but it shouldn’t be much.

 

[riznat]

226 days since Tanner Pearson scored a goal.

That’s for real?

Oh my god its just the worst.

And Faust getting noticably excited any time the Kings take possession of the puck in the offensive zone. Were he calling any other team’s game he’d know its a pretty mundane event.

 

[Reaper45]

Yeah Forbort sucked on that goal but the forwards were equally bad. Like these guys forgot how to play defense.

 

[The Butcher]

Great at what?

I expect broadcasters to exhibit a minimal sense of humanity, turn off the robot mode. Listen to the answers of your interview subject.

Just shows how terrible he is.

 

[kingsholygrail]

At least there's no social media segment.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

vs. a historically bad PK, 5th most goals given up at this point.

Completely lifeless lackadaisical bullshit we've seen all season.

Knew that Rangers win was the worst possible thing that could happen. I let myself slip out of doom and gloom for a second and believe they'd be able to rally around it. nope. 3 PPs to 0 and getting doubled up in shots. Disgusting.

Just went back and watched it. Kovalchuk saw the contact coming and decided to not go for the puck. Could have played it.

I just read these GDTs and see posters complain about how the Kings never get any calls. There's one they shouldn't have gotten.

Disagree. Textbook interference. Folin knew he was losing that race, went for the player instead, player who never had the puck.

 

[riznat]

Carter was right there watching Forbort he needs to get back to help.

Toffoli also stopped skating on his back check he keeps skating and he gets there.

There were several mistakes on that goal

Thanks coach, always there to explain the game to the laymen like me. Cheers!

They are playing too high trying to get MOAR SPEED. Instead of just playing the correct way and being on the right side of the puck and supporting/playing faster.

 

[Herby]

Funny to hear Stoll breaking down the PP failures. This is even uglier than Jamie Kompon's "feed Stoll for the one-timer" strategy.

 

[The Tikkanen]

That’s for real?

March 19th at MN.

 

[Dooney]

What the heck happened to Stoll’s eyebrows? Joke gone bad? Dude needs some serious microblading

Lol you can tell though they were trying to force the kovy one timer and philly was reading it everytime. Instead of working with what was given

 

[kingsfan28]

You know, if Toffoli backchecked the entire way, he may have prevented the goal. Instead, he coasted through the middle then tried to catch up. He stopped skating.

I mean that and I feel like they're cherry picking a bit thinking about scoring only. Doesn't work like that guys and makes me wonder what Nachbaur and Lowry are telling these guys.

Team is horribly complacent and no one is held accountable.

Flyers intermission PBP: "This is the worst I've ever seen the Kings play with this core (Brown/Kopitar/Doughty)

 

[lumbergh]

Kovalchuk doesn’t have to play the puck. Folin clearly initiated contact. I’m not really sure what point you’re trying to make, but it was interference.

Kovalchuck had a chance to play the puck, making him eligible to be hit. He just decided not to play the puck.

 

[Fishhead]

Not taking anything away from the suck that is the roster, but they aren't this bad. This is what happens when a mediocre roster meets a poor head coach.

 

[member 88115]

Blake, how long are u going to let this crap show go on? All eyes are on you.

 

[GoldenBearHockey]

Not how the rule works

 

[Peter James Bond II]

Which King had best Costume Contest? Are you serious?

All of them that dressed up like they were Hockey Players, tonight.

 

[Reaper45]

If that were the case guys would go headhunting and pretend to be stupid, "well he was eligible to be hit!"

No way man, they beat the Rangers, there's no losing streak! Everything is fine!
