GDT: GM#42 LA Kings vs Nashville Predators @7:30

[Raccoon Jesus]

Staples Center sounds like a morgue.

Not surprised, this is borderline unwatchable.

The Flames broke the Kings.

The Flames broke the Kings.

Not at all, this is a completely different game.

 

[Bandit]

Not just one game.

Are you counting this one? Because the last game is the only one I remember the Kings being downright terrible in the second period this season.

Got a week off coming up. Hopefully they throw the kitchen sink out there in the 3rd. Someone has to do something. Cause some chaos. All they have is a self inflicted mistake by Subban.

Vegas a couple games ago. At home no less.

Playing downright terrible and losing is usually no different,both mostly result with a loss.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

One thing is for sure, i'm a lot less scared of Nashville after this sideshow. No Carter, no Muzzin, Gravel on the top pairing, and these clowns want to stand behind their own net for 30 seconds at a time and can't even muster a full handful of shots unless they're boosted by the refs.

Yep, it was typically bad starts, decent seconds, dominant thirds, particularly in the last 5 min.

The Flames broke the Kings.

I thought Tampa did that? Or when the Kings went into Vegas?

 

[Kingspiracy]

I think I miss the days before the instigator rule. Some of these yappy, pokey, bitchy preds could do with a reset

Goal differential by period:
1: -4
2: -1
3: +31!



Edit: maybe worth noting that 2nd period one has taken a particular beating in the last little bit.

seriously?

holy f***. i knew the 3rd was an outlier but i didn't think it was that far out of line

 

[Butch 19]

Kopitar is looking veeeeerrrry sloooooowwww tonight.

 

[tny760]

gravel's a good defenseman damnit!

The last game against Vegas was a 3-2 OT loss. Terrible? Try again.

Where are you getting that anyway? I haven't found a decent place to find the team stats.

Best I could find was a manual calculation at the nhl site

Oh looks like the suck is strong tonight. No surprise.

5th best record when trailing after 2 periods. Which team is 1st? Vegas, of course. The Knights are the answer to every question.

Go Kings Go

Thing is with a week off they coaches could have easy/ fun practices or work your *** off practices before next Saturday
Team seems to have decided they want to work

 

[deaderhead28]

You got to start questioning is it the team?Leadership ?or Stevens ? that's the issue?

 

[KingsFan7824]

Kopitar is looking veeeeerrrry sloooooowwww tonight.

Not just him, but yeah. I'm guessing the week off isn't going to help him get into gear right away either.

The last game against Vegas was a 3-2 OT loss. Terrible? Try again.

The 2nd period by the Kings in that game was terrible.
