GDT: GM #50 LA Kingsvs Dallas Stars @ 5:30pm

Kind of the opposite actually. Someone on the history of hockey board wrote a nice thesis on it. The idea was athletic goalie performances are more volatile--see Hasek, Thomas, Quick--whereas butterfly 'percentage' goalies make the 'safe' saves. I forget whether they quantified it but the theory was butterfly goalies will have higher low-danger save percentage but lower high-danger save percentage while the athletic goalies will have the opposite. In other words, if you need a guy to steal a game, gamble on the athletic guy, but if you just need raw stability over time, go with the butterfly guy.

Looking at the last few cup-winning goalies, Quick, Thomas, Crawford fit the athletic bill a bit more, Murray more butterfly I think, though Pens won with Fleury before that too.

Just a thought.




A whopping two shifts.

Not surprised by the results because it is pretty logical. I'm just curious what gets quantified as high scoring vs low scoring.

I'm saying this because I think with our current defense we need more of a technical or hybrid since that makes it more easier for defejseman to read and predict plays better IMO

17 games vs. Nashville, Quick has 5 wins, .890, 2.86 GAA.

Wow that's bad lol. Start kuemper

The Martinez 'hold' as well. Saw that coming. Computer assistance turned on for Dallas. ****ing hate this reffing. Kings controlled literally 80% of the game and are still getting out-penaltied. There is no rhyme or reason for it at this point, just have to roll with it.

Kings are top 5 in PP chances in the NHL no idea why they don't give us calls.

Hmmm i can't believe he played this much

Who's toi

 

[Little Psycho]

What? I'll take it!

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

The hell was that? That was a weird goal. Those usually go against the Kings.

 

[kingsfan28]

All goals scored by the D !

3-0

 

[HansH]

Nice.

 

[Sol]

Bishop gives up so many casual goals.

 

[Sol]

Doughty, LaDue and Martinez.

LaDue

Question for those of you who play hockey, is it hard to tell who's coming at you on the opposing team since there's no numbers on jerseys and pretty much everyone wears a visor? I assume it's even harder for goalies, right?

 

[KINGS17]

Lol kings winning silent gdt when we are losing 10 pages wtf people can't enjoy us winning ?

I dunno, I thought watching the one State of the Union address this year might be more important than missing the first two periods of one of the 82 games the Kings play this season.

You should give an on-line course on how to enjoy hockey games and be a proper Kings fan.

 

[kingsfan28]

I'm surprised that little rat that plays for Dallas hasn't done something stupid yet.

 

[Sol]

LaDue

That's weird.

 

[kingsfan28]

Where did Toffoli's shot go? He can't hit a barn door when left wide open.

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

When's the Faust jinx coming? Lol

 

[kingsholygrail]

Good effort coming out of the break tonight.

I bet you would have done both if we were losing You are getting to be the least positive poster on this board imo then again you have the right to post anyway you wish so carry on with the doom and gloom You seem to enjoy it

At least you still recognize a real fan so there maybe some hope left after all

 

[KingCanadain1976]

That's weird.

I doubt he played that long to be honest i didnt see him at all in the second

You obviously weren't around in 2012, and have no clue what you are talking about.

 

[KingCanadain1976]

When's the Faust jinx coming? Lol

Not sure i have the visitor feed again

 

[Sol]

Wow no penalty ? What a joke

 

[KingCanadain1976]

A simple look at when i join under my picture would tell you your wrong i joined in 2009 but continue with ur arrogance i find it entertaining and something new from you at least

 

[kingsfan28]

Wow, total interference on that breakout preventing Kempe for making it a 2 on 1

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

How many trips away from the play are the stars gonna get away with tonight?

That's what happens when the refs put the whistles away...

 

[kingsholygrail]

Okay...

 

[Sol]

I honestly have zero respects for the refs. I used to have a lot. But now id be lying if i said I didnt smile after they get hit by a puck or a fist
