Kings News: [Hammond] LA Kings Have Hired Darryl Sutter As New Head Coach

[cheap77]

I don't like it, but I guess I have no choice but to accept it. I really hope Sutter allows Richardson and Lewis to play more. I'm also hoping He puts Brown on the left wing where he has shown he can really play well. I would also like to see Penner just park his ass in front of the net and stay there when the Kings are on offense. Just have Kopitar feed him pucks all day long.

Could you imagine if the Kings were playing in the winter classic and this crap was going down?What fiasco that would of been.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

I'm guessing another cause for the delay might be due to Sutter trying to round up a staff with him upon his arrival as head coach. They are going to have a major upheaval behind the bench and have to remove all remnants of the previous coaching regime.

As an Avs fan living in Calgary and being able to watch the Flames a lot back in the day of Coach Sutter round 1, your team is going to get back on track really fast.

He is a brilliant coach, but is lacking the brain capacity to be a GM.

Probably will never happen

I feel bad for John Stevens if he gets lets go. I really like him and according to Lombardi he has a good relationship with Jack Johnson and some of the other players.

I am encouraged by the response from the Flames fans about Bert.
I am on board and had someone tell me how to get to Sesame Street.

I am also looking forward to the Puppet.

I thought about that too, especially when early on some people thought it would be us versus the Rangers. I guess it would be fun for everybody except Kings fans.

I also wonder how it will affect Richards considering Stevens played a big part in easing his transition to the Kings.

lmfao, me too!!!

In all seriousness I'm going to go into this with an open mind and hope for the best.

GO KINGS!!!!! (hopefully we have our new coach soon )

 

[JR28]

I am sure Richards will be ok. He understands that this is a business and with the team playing as poorly as they have been, he had to see this coming. Plus I think he has been here long enough now to get situated and can lean on Gags and Willie if need be. Of course maybe Stevens will stay on.

As long as NBC runs the NHL, you're probably right. There's a better chance of the KINGS-DUCKS game on the sand in Manhattan Beach.

 

[Moses Doughty]

Honestly, is it just me or we have a streak like this every year? Just that the offense is even worse than usual for this streak

Almost certain now that the Darryl Sutter Era for the Kings won't start til next Tuesday. Will players give effort under lameduck coach?

I think players should realize that if they don't, they might find themselves with another team in the not too distant future.

Yes, and not just us but other teams as well.

True, our offense has been terrible, but we have the players to improve.

It's a long season and it's really too early to be panicking.

Would that bother the players?

Yea, and per tradition watch us win like 14 of 16 games once we get going

I don't think this is one of those streaks at all. This has been a complete meltdown.
