Contain him, impede his attempts at passes and shots?

22. Tough to play against. Is Carter easy or difficult to play against? is he battling for pucks?

30. Describe his 3 best plays today. Describe his 3 worst plays today.
31. Is Carter fully engaged and looks like he is in a war and should be wearing war paint today...or does he look disinterested and thinking what wine bottle he will later fetch from his cellar...and time thinking about beach sunsets on their favorite patch of sand with wifey and little ones…
32. After the game - check his tweets. Are they about the game, or his dog Bo, competing in dog races?
33. Should I be trading our #3 draft choice and taking on 75% of several million dollars of a contract that runs 3 more years on Jeff Carter? By adding him, can he help us win a playoff round? In what ways will he improve our team and chances?
I will do this today...since Kings games are hard to watch...*would be cool if a few did this and compare results.
* may lead to mild depression...and may lead to drinking more than you normally would. you may get irritable and others will not want to be around you. Please refrain from throwing anything or heavy cursing; especially if children present. It's just a game, right? (but do this for your GM, you may be saving his and your job)

Heading out shortly will be wearing the Daryl Evans St Pats suit I won at auction last year ( I bid early and 1st before the game started figuring I would get out bid, I was wrong 
)
Watching hockey, even bad hockey is still better than a lot of things.
Though watching Jeff Carter play hockey right now is not a lot better than a lot of things.

willie scapegoating kovy is one of the most pathetic things i've ever seen an NHL coach do
i'm not gonna sit here and claim kovy's been effective but he's not the only one

Not excited for this at all but probably will have it on in the background, meh. Nice background noise for a beautiful day outside!

Six years ago, Tyler Toffoli was the most promising Kings prospect to join the team since Doughty’s debut.
Now, he’s the biggest ween on the team.
Check out those highlights and look at how different the team looked back then, playing an up tempo game, and with intensity.

If you really hate your dad you might as well tell him rather than beat around the bush for 3 hours.

If I’m Ilya Kovalchuk, I’d stay at home and do something more productive than watch Kings hockey. I’ll just leave this here for us to stare at.

WD is the guy in your fantasy league that shows up to the draft with a newspaper in hand.
Its actually quite fitting they have Haley Joel Osment join them today. The Kings have played with a 6th sense all year.

I thought you were going to say it's fitting he joins them today, because he can look at the Kings' bench and say "I see dead people."
Mass migration of painted ladies butterflies in SoCal. Pretty cool looking outside.
