GDT: GM#3 LA Kings vs Winnipeg Jets @5:00pm 10/9/18

What the hell was that the last minute of the power play?

 

[Herby]

I'm struggling to think of a more poorly coached Kings team. It's probably been two decades. This is worse than anything we saw from Terry Murray.

Dion Phaneuf on a #1 PP unit in 2018?

Is this a joke?

LOL net presence, probably has better hands than half the forwards,

Better 3rd, but that was due to the Jets not pressing more than the Kings playing better,

the good news: kovalchuk and campbell

the bad news: everyone else

Someone please teach Doughty a wrist shot if the PP is going to be forced through him.

 

[kingsfan28]

Someone tell Doughty about this thing called a wrist shot.

Worse part of the night is that it is not even 8 pm
Too early to go to sleep and call it a bad dream

 

[KingsHockey24]

First we had Kovalachuk in front of the net, then we decided to move Kovalchuk to the right and Kopi to the left so neither can shoot one-timers, and now we have Phaneuf as our screener.

Fantastic PP set-up.

 

[kingsboy11]

well it was a better 3rd period, but its not like they could've played any worse than the first two periods.

Yup,

100 Agree.

 

[Herby]

Doughty just sucks on the PP, this is his 11th year in the NHL, it's never going to improve, it's the only weakness that Doughty has to his game.

Terry Murray wasn't even that bad; at least he taught the team how to defend.

 

[kingsfan28]

32-11 in shots well into the 3rd. That is a big problem.

 

[Herby]

Yup,

100 Agree.

I forgot about Crawford, that was bad but this seems even worse. Crawford didn't have Doughty or Kopitar in his prime.

Crawford got 60+ goals out of Brown/Kopitar at least.

 

[kingsfan28]

I think the Kings went 0-28 on the pp to start a season, so there still hope.

I love Stevens' plan to confuse the other team confuses his players and the fans too. Genius.

 

[damacles1156]

What the hell is Stevens doing, seriously.

 

[Little Psycho]

What the hell is Stevens doing, seriously.

It's the confusion tactic. What don't you get?

 

[DryIslandBartender]

This roster is the most overrated collection of players I’ve seen in some time.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Kings analyst's still using Brown being out as a excuse. Someone else has to step up and coaching offense has to actually exist, because Stevens and his assistants are so clueless!

WTH is this “they haven’t practiced much together” excuse?

 

[SFKingshomer]

I can't wait for Blake and Luc to announce Granato as coach

 

[damacles1156]

Is Stevens seriously using practice as an excuse ?.....

These are professional NHL players.

They haven't practiced the confusion tactic.
