GDT: Kings vs Flames 4.6.2017 : Will Keith Jones Be Embarrassed Again Edition

[KingTrouty]

He ended up signing for next to nothing. You assume he was willing to sign for next to nothing when the Kings were considering who to keep.

Um, yeah.

Cough the puck up at the blueline. But it's okay, the Kings repeated that mistake again and got burned for it.

But the puck got through.

 

[kingsfan28]

Seriously, they should give an assist to Doughty for once again getting his shot blocked and setting up the breakaway.

Blocked in front of the goalie. It wasn't like he fired it into someone's shins right in front of him. **** off with that.

 

[kingsfan28]

But the puck got through.

Nope, blocked , just not by the closest guy to him.

 

[KingTrouty]

The second play is moot, wasn't Gravel.

As for Gravel, he did a hell of a job racing down dude and eliminating part of dude's shooting radius. Without taking a penalty.

We've seen Drew do that sort of play many a time. Giving Quick (in this case Bishop) a chance to play true.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Nope, blocked , just not by the closest guy to him.

And therefore not turned over at the blueline.

 

[kingsfan28]

Blocked in front of the goalie. It wasn't like he fired it into someone's shins right in front of him. **** off with that.

The guy cant get a shot through without it being blocked. They lead the league by a wide margin at getting shots blocked from the point.

 

[KingTrouty]

Just ****ing kill JFH or Tkachuk. Moral victory and all that...

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

I guess getting caught flat footed is more acceptable.

 

[kingsholygrail]

You guys don't even want them to win these games. Why are you even upset?

So that's why Gravel hasn't been playing.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

At least go down swinging. They're not even doing that.

 

[KingTrouty]

Welp. ****.

Draft pick, baby.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Gravel scores! For the Flames.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Rookie goalie in his first pro game and they're not even testing him.

 

[KingTrouty]

What's the highest pick we can get if we lose out? Anyone crunch the numbers (minus the lottery)?

 

[KingTrouty]

I was reading about Bear Attacks in the U.S. on Wikipedia to "kill" time before the game started. I actually am fighting the urge to go back to that.

 

[KingsFan7824]

Kopitar sure has had a bad season. Up and down the ice. No matter what else they do, they'll be in the same position next year if he has even remotely the same kind of season.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Ninth overall, though they can be bumped down if a team behind them wins one of the top three selections in the lottery.

 

[KingTrouty]

Both these teams just going through the motions. Calgary's just better at it this year.

 

[Davit17]

Ninth overall, though they can be bumped down if a team behind them wins one of the top three selections in the lottery.

I thought they're slated to pick 10th because of vegas

Thanks, Zigs.

I was just thinking about next season and how likely it is for the team to be just as bad next season. Maybe even worse.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

4-1. Between-the-legs goal by Chiasson.

Ah forgot to add them into the mix. The Kings are worse than Vegas though.
