Crosby looks like shit tonight 5v5. His line looks like a 3rd line. He’s losing a lot of puck battles. Can’t find any space.

You can debate about Norris against Makar, but poor Quinn surely is concidered for Hart this season. He is by himself trying to drag Vanvouver to the playoffs...
 
Are the Kings somehow gonna do what they did last year? Go from looking legit at Christmas to fighting for a wild card spot in game 82? Thought they'd be over this with McLellan gone. Suddenly only 3 points up on Calgary.

You betcha. We're so bored of this movie.

As with every other trend these days, we're channeling the late 90s-early 2000s

It's the year 2000. After another disappointing couple of seasons involving missed playoffs or first round losses, The Los Angeles Kings get out to a hot start through the first few months before a road trip around the turn of the year starts to derail them...they fumble around playing slightly .500 hockey to land in the unfortunate 'Pacific' playoff spot out of the division lead, forced to play against arguably the best players in the era trying to establish dominance after losing in the previous year to the Stanley Cup Champion. They get unceremoniously turfed in just a few games due to a patchwork roster that doesn't have much of an identity. Their 1 and 2cs are primarily defensive and much of the scoring is laid onto the back of a dynamic winger. Fortunately they still have a Norris Caliber dman, though aging. But years of sketchy management are catching up, with dwindling assets and an aging roster despite a lack of success, and appear headed towards a black hole. Familiar names in the organization include Rob Blake, Luc Robitaille, Glen Murray, Nelson Emerson, Craig Johnson, and Sean O'Donnell.

It's the year 2022. After another disappointing couple of seasons involving missed playoffs or first round losses, The Los Angeles Kings get out to a hot start through the first few months before a road trip around the turn of the year starts to derail them...they fumble around playing slightly .500 hockey to land in the unfortunate 'Pacific' playoff spot out of the division lead, forced to play against arguably the best players in the era trying to establish dominance after losing in the previous year to the Stanley Cup Champion.

It's the year 2023. After another disappointing couple of seasons involving missed playoffs or first round losses, The Los Angeles Kings get out to a hot start through the first few months before a road trip around the turn of the year starts to derail them...they fumble around playing slightly .500 hockey to land in the unfortunate 'Pacific' playoff spot out of the division lead, forced to play against arguably the best players in the era trying to establish dominance after losing in the previous year to the Stanley Cup Champion.

One of the reasons I’m not writing the Kings off (other than they’re actually a decent team) is for the simple fact they’ve played 29 road games which they’ve won only 11 of, but only 19 home games where they are 15-3-1. They have a six-game homestand starting Feb 5th and play 21 of their final 33 games at home. Don’t count em out
 
Uggh this narrative.

Miller , Petterson , Hronek and Demko are elite players.
The Nashville announcer said it best “Pettersson and Miller may have something going on behind closed doors, but these are two talented players when they play together on the ice”
