[kovacro]

Another regulation loss please.

 

[3firstnames]

but its drew doughty bobble head night. not just any bobble head...and cowboy bobble head.

so at least there's that...?

 

[Sol]

If the Jets aren't little bitches then they should win.

 

[Lt Dan]

Lose for Hughes!

 

[kingsholygrail]

Is the cowboy hat one of those novelty oversized ones?

 

[KINGS17]

Winnipeg is going to be a tough out in the playoffs.

I am really impressed with Wheeler's consistency over the last four seasons. This is what the Kings should be getting from some of their vets. Granted Wheeler has better talent to play with, but he is getting the job done very well.

Winnipeg signed Wheeler to an extension that starts next season for five years and a cap hit of $8.5M. That takes him up to age 38, which probably wasn't a good idea. Better than eight years I suppose, but probably 2 or 3 years too long.

He might be one of those guys that will be effective into his late 30's. He seems to be getting better and better with age. And he took the long path, didn't even make pro debut until he was 22, that probably also helps.

""""Season ticket holder meeting before tonight’s game. So many questions to ask. Ask some juicy ones please. Put Luc on the hot seat"""

Is anyone going to this? Ask why is there a double standard with scratching Leipsic, Kovalchuk, Wagner, but not Carter. Someone ask if Carter is injured. And if he is, why is he playing? And if he's NOT, why is he playing? (same response, for either answer)

Ask if the Kings are going to try and sign Limoges from Penn State. And about players like *AmateurKhorkin and sign him and make him Prokhorkin...and Sodergran and Shafigullan, if they are trying to sign them and bring them over.

*yes, I know he's considered a pro in the KHL. Just bored I guess.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Ask about Voynov.

I wonder if the bobble head includes a ref that he is yelling at?

its funny cause its uh...bigger than a normal hat

 

[Peter James Bond II]

Another question for Luc tonight: "Why has Dion Phaneuf been missing his rotation, to sit out every third game? Can we get him back on schedule and he should miss the next 4 games, to make up for the ones he was supposed to sit?"

 

[Kingspiracy]

Another question for Luc tonight: "Why has Dion Phaneuf been missing his rotation, to sit out every third game? Can we get him back on schedule and he should miss the next 4 games, to make up for the ones he was supposed to sit?"

It probably depends on which direction in the standings they want the team to go

 

[redcard]

If I went to the season ticket holder meeting, I'd also feel obligated to go the game tonight. Can't believe that the team is pushing their country music night agenda on us when there are guys on the team that might not like cowboy hats.

"Luc, can you spell 'cat' if we spot you the 'c' and the 'a' ?"

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The Jets are starting their backup goalie tonight, so you all know what that means.

Sounds like Jack Campbell is starting tonight for the Kings.

 

[Bandit]

Just lose. In regulation.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

This is quite symbolic.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Two of the bald eagle nests on the Channel Islands have chicks now.

 

[kingsfan28]

Grundstrom has been quite since his second game, hope he makes more of a presence going forward.

 

[kingsfan28]

Will McD get more than 6 shifts tonight?

 

[tny760]

"we would not expect him to get lots of ice time in the 3rd pairing" RE: macdermid

f*** off with the excuses foxy

 

[tny760]

season's almost over and willie finally decides to roll 4 lines

 

[kingsboy11]

There's 3 players in the 3 crease and not a single player locks up the stick of Hayes
