GDT: GM#65 LA Kings vs Columbus Blue Jackets @7:30

[tny760]

Iafallo is like a cheap, free, young Justin Williams.

hope they hit him with one of those early contracts like they did with toff/pearson and lock him up for a few extra years on the cheap

First game I really thought Jeff Carter has his groove back. Bodes well for the next month.

He looks slower than usual to me. Not sure if it's because of the injury, or his age. Probably a combination of both.

Pearson too. Neither is blowing by the defender like they usually do.

He’s definitely still a step slow. Time will tell if that’s temporary or not.

 

[Herby]

Iafallo was scratched at about the 40-45 game mark, he had seriously hit the wall and was playing terrible. He came back from that and exceeded even the way he played to start the year.

Credit to him for digging out and Stevens for knowing when to sit him.

 

[Bandit]

If the Kings win, I hope Folin gets the first star.

Wish granted.

 

[LAKings88]

Think he wishes he stayed??

I knew what I was doing. Took one for the team. Sometimes just walking away aligns the universe just right.

You’re welcome.

Can't decide which GDT is more entertaining....Kings fan and their first period meltdown or Carter rustling Blue Jacket's jimmies.

Be right back....

 

[kingsfan28]

All he does is score in blowout.

That was a straight up sexy goal by him.

 

[kingsfan28]

Or on the trip back from Vegas.

This was how they returned:

Took a while to shake it off I guess.

 

[yankeeking]

Man if Kopitar tucked that in... would've been like his playoff goal against Elliott.

Very glad he has been trying those moves again instead of passing off and retreating to the high slot, so very glad to have this kopi back

 

[LAK74]

Sidenote: Does anyone know what game it was where the boys wore the chevy logo jerseys in warmups? Looking for pictures from it.

January 7, 2017 vs. Minnesota Wild.

 

[Herby]

Or on the trip back from Vegas.

Hopefully they atleast stopped at the Mad Greek on the way back.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

This might be blasphemous but Christian Folin reminds me of Matty Norstrom, even in demeanor.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Also, one more reason this team is so scary with depth--Kopitar only played 18:50 tonight. Doughty only 22:35. Martinez actually played the most at 23:46. Everyone else 15-20. Clifford got the least at 8:55 but he was the only one under 10, all the forwards were rolling very evenly.

 

[kingsfan28]

I never once noticed Vanek, and neither did Lumbus. Totally forgot he and the other guy they traded for played tonight.

I noticed Vanek. He was the dude losing his check on Iafallo's goal

So glad we had nothing to do with Vanish.

 

[Winger23]

Oh yeah, another thing, quick sucks and is just an average goalie.

I thought it was Jack Johnson.

There's probably a mold on an assembly line somewhere in Sweden.

I prefer to hold off on that comparison until Folin knocks the spleen out of the opposition's star player.

[Ollie Weeks]

Folin is starting to throw his weight around a little more consistently. 3 point night is just gravy.

Next year is gonna be interesting if they retain Folin or shave salary and give the reigns to LaDue as the #6.

Never forget!
