GDT: GM#44 LA Kings vs San Jose Sharks @1:00pm

The Kings waived an older veteran (age 34) that Stevens would barely play. If Stevens is not going to use the guy, get rid of him.

Whats the big deal ?

Does his age make him less serviceable? He seemed pretty good, better than a few players in last night's roster.

No,

But after the constant talk from Blake/Stevens about playing the "young guys", "getting younger". Being 34 years of age and sitting in the press box might get you waived.

Just posting to say sorry Jake Muzzin, I am quick to criticize your game, but clearly I don't have a clue. That game yesterday was a defensive mess. UGLY!

Also Kopi, when you are along the boards on the power play would you at least look towards the net. Like a QB looking off a safety.
He never ever looks towards the net when he is along the boards, and teams are pretty much just play the pass. You don't have to shoot, but a least make it look like you might.

My point is he's better than a few in the line up so he shouldn't have been in the press box.

When the Kings power play struggles, you will usually see Kopitar's ass stapled to the side boards.

I maybe alone in this and that's fine, but I believe Stevens isn't the right head-coach to lead this team to a cup.Sure we've a few holes in the roster,but this team has enough offensive punch to win more games than they've,just not deep enough for a serous cup run as of yet.

I hope Jeff Carter can come back sooner than he's supposed to.

You mean there was a point in this season when it hasn't struggled?

It's real strange; get rid of AA or KC. Jussi wasn't a problem.

I was thinking the same thing. Jussi was fine on the forth line and then fell out of favor at some point.
