Kopitar was -6 last night. What's the record?

[bland]

Anze Kopitar was -6 against the Sabres in a 7-0 drubbing last night.

Without getting into the relevance of that particular stat, as a point of interest what is the worst number you can recall from a player on the team that you follow?

Anyone know the all-time record?

Greg Joly has the lowest plus-minus in a game, at -9 versus the Penguins on March 15, 1975.

So says google

-9
Joly

-9

Chris Butler was -7 in 2012. That's the only one since Doug Wilson in the 90's.

Was he a Selke winner though?

that was an awful team. 8-67-5 on the season.

 

[Oddbob]

Was he a Selke winner though?

No, but he was almost as good as Coffey.

 

[Mitch nylander]

Nothing will ever beat this.... Brett Lebda -3 in 9-3 win.

 

[Coffey]

No, but he was almost as good as Coffey.

 

[Wasted Talent]

Was he a Selke winner though?

No, but Joly was a 1st overall pick.

Shiet, another 1OA bust.

Ask Karlsson.

Pittsburgh defenseman Barry Wilkins (1 G, 4 A) was a +8 in that game. The Pens had 65 shots on goal.

Pittsburgh 12, Washington 1 on March 15, 1975

Any time a Wings defenseman carries the puck up ice only to take himself way out of position and immediately turn the puck over, I still call it "pulling a Lebda."

Just wanna point out how funny it is that the hapless Sabres are the ones to make Kopitar look bad. Fantastic defensive center vs. a team who can’t score and can’t defend, weird outcome.

Anyways- this is kinda the risk of going for that coaching change bump, Kings just looked lost and frustrated.

 

[Ace]

The interesting things about Kopitar’s -6 is that it is the worst plus minus a former selke winner has ever put up…and he had never been lower than a -4 in over 1300 NHL games

a rare night indeed

Wow. Kopitar's washed.

LA should trade him to the Wings for a bag of pucks so he can be our 2c for the rest of the season.

Like, immediately please?

We'll even throw in Holl.

I know you’re joking, but this kings fan would trade Kopitar and Doughty both immediately if it were feasible.

As long as no large salary is coming back, I could give a shit less what the return is too.

 

[ottawah]

I remember the Karlsson -6 night. And it was a true -6 night not just being on the ice for 6 goals against, it was just continual terrible play and lack of effort by him that led to all 6 goals. He may not be a defensive juggernaught, but I had never seen him that far off his game.

 

[Cowumbus]

Greg Joly -9, in 1975

 

[bland]

Its an anomaly for sure, but Anze has clearly lost a couple of steps this season. I have been plenty critical of Kopitar about a few specific issues over the years, but this is an extraordinary single night stat worthy of reminiscing in what has been a stellar career of sheer, responsible hockey.

And our GM signed him to a two year, 35+ extension at $7 million per season instead of going year by year. Time catches up with everyone, but dumb decisions are timeless.

I'm pretty sure some of the people posting in this thread could achieve a minus 9 lol.
