GDT: GM#57 LA Kings vs Vancouver Canucks @7:30pm 2/14/19

[Sol]

Kopitar with zero power play goals this year. Brutal.

10 million dollar man MMM

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

wow roussel is still a little *****

snows quick, gets a little crosscheck for his efforts, still cries to the ref

Was trying to figure out who that was looking to the ref to be saved, guess I should have known

 

[Peter James Bond II]

Kopitar with zero power play goals this year. Brutal.

Kopi is master of the half wall. They need to move him off there and put him in front of the goal on the PP and see what happens. Brown is still good in front of there. Maybe put Brown on second unit there. Force Kopi out of his comfort zone and tell him 12 million and 0 PP goals is unacceptable, (his salary this year) you must score at least 1 PP goal every 8 games. Or be off PP.

 

[Bandit]

Yeah I’m “lobbering “ too...

 

[kingsfan28]

Saw that coming.

 

[Sol]

Looked like shoulder for Wagner

 

[kingsboy11]

Bad turnover by Walker there

 

[crassbonanza]

f*** Yeah Kings, way to f***ing push back

 

[tny760]

thats the shit i love about kovy man

he about jumped amadio there

 

[BigKing]

Cool about Wagner. What a season

 

[crassbonanza]

Bad turnover by Walker there

It was a rough turnover, but I think it was the first egregious one I can remember from this season, which is pretty impressive.

 

[AzKing]

This looks like two teams that just are not very good defensively. It's a bunch of rebounds and no clearing at all.

 

[tny760]

Cool about Wagner. What a season

shocking a guy gets hurt after sitting for half a period.. f***in willie

 

[Bandit]

I’ll say this about Kovalchuk: he’s genuinely pumped when anyone on his team scores.

 

[justonetime]

Looked like shoulder for Wagner

Agreed but there must have been a pre-existing injury for that hit to cause anything, it wasn't much.

 

[kingsfan28]

And we're tied.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Love Kovalchuk’s enthusiasm, even when he’s not the goal scorer.

 

[Sol]

thats the **** i love about kovy man

he about jumped amadio there

He has an insanely infectious personality on the ice. Dude looks so pumped every game.

 

[tny760]

the set play for the 1st unit to start a PP is a dumpin hahahahah

 

[AzKing]

I will be surprised if the Kings don't take this game. Vancouver is going to fade in the 3rd and they can't hold a lead as is.

 

[BigKing]

Agreed but there must have been a pre-existing injury for that hit to cause anything, it wasn't much.

He's had shoulder problems

 

[Bandit]

Kopitar takes 2 of these prior to every Kings powerplay:

 

[AzKing]

He has an insanely infectious personality on the ice. Dude looks so pumped every game.

He looks like he is genuinely happy to be in the NHL. He looks like he could be an ideal 2nd line addition for a team needing scoring and a positive presence.

 

[kings11]

He's had shoulder problems

Back on the bench so that’s a good sign

 

[justonetime]

He's had shoulder problems

Ugh. I personally have a torn labrum in my shoulder, that's a likely and common source of reoccurring injuries and can lead to easy dislocations. Long recovery from that surgery but I'm obviously just speculating.

Looks like he's back on the bench but I still suspect that's the injury...
