Hot mess season continues!
I wonder if a competitive team could be pieced together by combining the Kings and Hawks. The Hawks can contribute Kane, Toews, DeBrincat, Keith and Jokiharju is having a pretty good rookie year. Crawford is still pretty good. Throw in Saad I guess. So we still need 8 forwards, 4 d-men and a goalie. So for the Kings I imaging Doughty, or course, Kopitar, Carter, Kovalchuk, and Quick. We still need 5 forwards and 3 d-men. Add in Muzzin and Martinez and as long as Seabrook plays limited minutes he's OK as a #6 d-man. So let's add Toffoli and Schmaltz, and how about Kahun and Iaffalo and finally Brown.
Would this be a competitive lineup?
DeBrincat-Toews-Kane
Kovalchuk-Kopitar-Toffoli
Saad-Carter-Brown
Iaffalo-Schmaltz-Kahun
Keith-Doughty
Muzzin-Jokiharju
Martinez-Seabrook
Crawford/Quick
What's the point? Amadia is not going to change the outcome of this game, and he has not shown anything impressive. Might as well let Kempe learn how to be a better center this season.
Amadio is a bum. Just roll with Thompson.I'm talking about Amadio in for Thompson.
Wow. When it rains it pours. I wonder who are emergency backup is.
You have our best bottom six forward this season scratched in both line-ups.Kovalchuk-Kopitar-Brown
Iafallo-Carter-Toffoli
Hagelin-Amadio-Kempe
Wagner/Rempal-Lewis-Luff
Clifford
or
Kempe-Kopitar-Kovalchuk
Hagelin-Carter-Brown
Iafallo-Amadio-Toffoli
Rempal/Wagner-Lewis-Luff

God is our roster awful...
You have our best bottom six forward this season scratched in both line-ups.
Disgraceful.
Wagner isn't ready for the NHL, and Amadio never does anything when he does get in the line-up.
Rempal and Luff can both get some games in though.
You wouldn’t know talent if it puck slapped you in the face... just enjoy the Lose for Hughes season and shut your face !Amadio is a bum. Just roll with Thompson.
His one point in 11 games this season just screams talent.You wouldn’t know talent if it puck slapped you in the face... just enjoy the Lose for Hughes season and shut your face !

Both are AHL'ers and shouldn't be in the NHL.and Thompson's 1 goal since he's a King screams retirement
Both are AHL'ers and shouldn't be in the NHL.
Only difference is one is in his early 20s and the other is 34. Both are on a tire fire team but I have way more faith in the guy at the start of his career than the end.Both are AHL'ers and shouldn't be in the NHL.
I'd rather have the young guy develop in the AHL. The NHL isn't a league to develop players.Only difference is one is in his early 20s and the other is 34. Both are on a tire fire team but I have way more faith in the guy at the start of his career than the end.
The entire team needs an overhaul to be competitive in the NHL. Other teams infused skilled players, while the Kings did not draft talented players the last few years. Now our roster is comparable to an AHL team. You can sub in Amadio, Luff, Wagner, whoever, it's not going to make a difference. This team needs a full rebuild. Need to rake in the assets at the trade deadline.
Wtf does it matter if the best bottom 6 player isnt dressed? You can change the condiments all you want but if the dish is **** it's still going to be ****.

Michael Amadio is Nick Shore 2.0 at the moment.
Hey Kings fans....remember when hockey was fun?
Players are gonna be evaluated the rest of the season as I expect at least two more players gone by the end of the season.I mean, at this moment, Anze Kopitar is Nick Shore 2.0.
Need people to stop evaluating player values right now.
