No fight in them, this team is heartless

 

[kingsfan28]

Gabby highsticked right in front of the ref...nothing. Same guy too who was missed Doughty getting elbowed.

 

[KINGS17]

Tired of all the excuses about how much hockey some of these guys played this year.

It doesn't seem to bother Kane and Toews.

 

[kingsfan28]

Missed the Calgary pick earlier, get the Cliffy trip.

 

[LAKings88]

Saw that one eh!

 

[kingsholygrail]

They play the same amount of games as everyone else. This fatigue excuse is bull.

 

[KINGS17]

Nice effort by Carter.

 

[KINGS17]

Whoa, nice cold shoulder by Brown in the corner.

 

[kingsfan28]

Carter hauled down by 3 guys and nothing called. These refs suck so bad.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

I think this was a year where Lombardi wanted Doughty and Kopitar to take ownership and responsibility for the results.

They failed.

I do think the Kings have lost a lot of their "glue". Guys like Williams, Stoll, Mitchell, Greene, Scuderi, Regehr, etc. just didn't accept this kind of crap play from themselves or their teammates. Even in a game like this where the Kings are losing, you could count on one of the aforementioned guys trying to intimidate the opposing team by being extra physical or chippy.

Carter along with Lewis tried to lead this group, but no one followed.

Regehr lives around Calgary. Could've picked him up one a one-day contract for a little Hemsky special, just saying.

 

[KINGS17]

There won't be any Norris or Selke this season.

 

[KINGS17]

Regehr lives around Calgary. Could've picked him up one a one-day contract for a little Hemsky special, just saying.

I bet Hemske sees Regehr in his nightmares.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Do they have to play the rest of the season?

I'd say there's some of that in there for sure.

But again, most of those vets were around in 14-15. Many things have conspired since winning that 2nd Cup.

 

[kingsfan28]

The Kings will lose this game 4-3, I'm calling it.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Hey, at least the Lakers beat the Cavs, and UCLA advanced. Some LA teams won today.

 

[kingsfan28]

4th line out for the last 2 min! Sutter at his finest!

 

[KINGS17]

Indeed, most of those players were on the 2014-15 roster. I just think most of them were no longer physically able, especially Stoll and Greene.

Yeah. Maybe in 14-15, but even then. Muzzin was crap when he played for Canada too. Kopitar didn't score any goals in the World Cup either. They've all just played poorly this year. Well, not all, and not all the time. Kopitar, Toffoli, and Muzzin has surprisingly below average seasons. Kopitar has recently put up some points, but now Carter can only score into empty nets. If it's not one thing, it's another.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Not sure what was more embarrsssing, the first 59 minutes or the last minute. Stick a fork in these losers. They're done.

 

[KingsFan7824]

4th line out for the last 2 min! Sutter at his finest!

What difference does it make? Were the top guys doing anything?

 

[kingsfan28]

That might've been the worse attempt with the goalie pulled by a Kings team I've ever seen.

 

[KINGS17]

Do we really think the Kings are going to improve to the point where they overtake Edmonton and Calgary in the near future?

These two teams are on the upswing. At best the Kings may fight for 3rd in the Pacific with San Jose and Anaheim in the next few seasons.

 

[Reaper45]

Surely that's the last nail in the coffin.

 

[kingsholygrail]

It's times like these I wish we had media people willing to ask a tough question.
