Here and Now: The Preseason

Amadio-v!!

 

[King'sPawn]

Beauty play by Lewis to Amadio!

 

[crassbonanza]

Amadio!!!!

 

[bland]

Roy breaking up the attack and quickly feeding Lewis up ice was the key to that goal.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Amadio, the guy who probably should get more of a look as the #2 C over Kempe.

 

[Scottkmlps]

There's that Amadio doing nothing again.

 

[King'sPawn]

Toffoli's looking better every game; that's encouraging.

Bjornfot is making it really hard to make a case for sending him back to Sweden.

 

[King'sPawn]

Is that an Iafallo goal? Nice rebound pounce!

 

[Telos]

HELL YEAH! Now keep the lead, unlike last time!

 

[Jericho111091]

We did a hockey!

 

[crassbonanza]

Iafallo scoring a dirty one on the powerplay. Good to see him win the battle out front.

 

[King'sPawn]

Even though Quick hasn't really been tested, he's not chasing the puck at all. He's looking better, too.

 

[bland]

Roy owned Pacioretty on that cycle. Dudes having a terrific period.

 

[Jericho111091]

Jason Bjorn is gonna score one. I can just feel it.

 

[crassbonanza]

Great start for the team, would love to see them pop one in here on the powerplay. Putting a 3 spot on the Knights in the 1st would be awesome

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

This Vegas broadcast sounds like I'm listening to Hazy and Albers.

 

[HookKing]

Kings headed for blackhole territory.

 

[crassbonanza]

Bjornfot with the moves down low in the offensive zone to draw the penalty. Kid has nerves of steel

 

[Telos]

Bjornfot looks fantastic. I have a feeling that we might give him his cup of coffee and send him away, but he is not making it easy.

 

[Little Psycho]

Vegas being dirty

 

[crassbonanza]

Kings headed for blackhole territory.

With the f***ing draft lottery there is no blackhole anymore.

 

[kings11]

Nice aggressiveness from Amadio on the offensive end then turned right around and hounded Marchessault

 

[bland]

Roy closes the gap quickly and forces the icing.

I'll stop propping him up as soon as stops playing really well.

 

[HookKing]

With the ****ing draft lottery there is no blackhole anymore.

Yes and no. It's still about percentages...but, a motivated team can actually do something.

 

[King'sPawn]

My takes for the first period so far:
+ Bjornfot is so good
+ Quick looks like he's regaining form
+ Very good pace and overall team play
+ I've criticized Toffoli a lot, and just want to single him out and say he's much better

- The Kempe line is just all sorts of awful
- Lizotte is going to get seriously injured with the number of times he falls
- Wagner does so many good things, but he seems a bit out of sync.
