Post-Game Talk: Kings 2 - Jets 1 in OT

That 2nd line stinks. No one's on the same page. Looked like crap all night. Is Ehlers trying to get himself traded?

I haven't been to a game in a while and that was not much fun. I also forgot how much I despise the organ/organist. TNSE should brick that room up again.
 
The view from 211…

Birdies : Samberg back…played well given the rust, Fetts was motivated out there today,…he’s due, Vilardi and Comrie had great games, JMo himself, Nino played hard, Helle’s ceremony was first class. Craft beer corner.

Pars: most of the team/game. Loooong shift by 81/55 in OT. Linesmen who just refuse to drop the *^{%% puck.

Mulligans: Ehlers was off script tonight (needs to keep it simple sometimes…tough to be fancy if nobody else knows WTF you’re doing), Smoke was fighting the puck all night, 64’s one timer set up to the wrong team. Still not sure what Gus brings.

Did I mention the craft beer?
 
That’s not how the rule is written, though. If both player entering and exiting the ice are still one the ice at the same time, neither one can play the puck.
Or even be involved in the play in any way (ie checking a member of the other team if they have the puck) - at least that's the Hockey Canada rule

Sometimes NHL rules are slightly different

59 points so far are pointing to another stellar regular season but is this team built for the playoffs and a long run I think most would say probably not the way they are currently constructed.
They definitely need to learn how to grind out wins

The problem is that the last thing that the top 2 lines are designed to do is grind
 
I felt like this was a predictable game.

I got the score right, the team wrong.

I called it early that the Jets were only going to get a single shot in the first time minutes, like the Vegas game here.

I called a 4 shot 1st period and 10 after 2. Which was overly optimistic.

I said that the Jets would score on the PP from an Ehlers embellishment and they did. Ehlers has to be careful because those moves will get noticed by refs and he may not get the call later when the Jets need one.

But it was very much a grind game. For the most part just detailed in defensive postures. Not a lot of rush chances.

I thought the Kings did better than the Jets to outnumber them on the puck and create no space with pressure.

The Jets didn't play bad they just didn't do enough to generate and sustain offense. Iafallo had a good game as Sawyer pointed out. Scheifele did not have a Four Nations impact.

Was nice to see Samberg back in and play well. Pionk looked a lot more comfortable beside him. I thought they moved the puck well.

I really didn't notice Josh out there a lot. He's definitely not 100%.

Stanley wasn't bad, Coghlan neither.

For me the biggest disappointment was the 2nd line making turnovers, mistakes in coverage, and struggling to sustain any possession. Something has to give here. Namestnikov wasn't the worst player on that line tonight. Was happy to see him come back from laying it all out.

The long shift in OT wasn't great either, luckily there's no 3 on 3 in the playoffs. Glad Pionk didn't get shot in the face laying out.

Nice ceremony for Helle, it's too bad the team couldn't get the 2 points for Comrie.

Way she goes boys

Tomorrow's game should be more entertaining.
 
2nd line was ass tonight.
Aside from a few good games in October and one in November the second line has been MIA since, one half assed turnover machine top sixer with two pretend top sixers who lack size, speed, grit and determination!

1 goal in the last 19 games Perfetan, why is the guy still in the top 6, why hasn’t Chevy recalled little Chibby? Second year of disappearing down the stretch, sure glad he held out for more $$$$$$, guy is a bust!
