LAK 4 : CRY 3 - Justice

[Ron*]

Carter expected to stay on road trip, per Kings insider.

That's a good sign.

As Brad Doty alluded to, probably just got the runs.

The overtime lasted 0:36.

Unfortunately, I lost my recording when I changed channels. Still getting used to DirecTV. I'm pretty sure ARI never had possession the entire 0:36. Can someone double-check whether they even got a stick on the puck in OT? I don't think they did.

 

[HookKing]

LOL if I'm the ref I'm not calling cross-check on the ARI player. Come on, get real. His own player just got his head rammed by Jake's butt. It looked nasty. No ref in his right mind is calling those little baby cross-checks in response to that.

That first one was nasty. Teams get penalties all the time for retaliation after a big hit. Just ask Sean O'Donnell.

 

[Captain Mittens*]

I just noticed that Phoezona didn't touch the puck at all in OT

Thanks for the confirmation, I thought not.

I think O'Neal misquoted him

It does look like Odie miss heard.

That will suck if Carter returns to LA, means injury is more serious.

 

[The Night King]

Welp, I'll enjoy this win while I can. Who knows how long Carter will be out.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Meh.. Let him heal up. Better now than in March or something.

 

[Little Psycho]

Damn Carts going back to LA.

@thefourthperiod
There's update on Carter. He appeared to be nursing some kind of ailment going back to LA's roadtrip in OTT/MTL/TOR

That was what Sutter said, and why he made the line changes back a few weeks ago.

Carter has been nursing an injury for about two+ weeks now.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Ditto, he's been off for a while. I wonder what Richards is up to?

 

[Ollie Weeks]

So happy I gave up on this game. Whatever it takes to win.

 

[Omni Owl]

****s sake. Sounds like he made it worse by trying to play through it. I hope they're being extra precautious. Shore and Lewis are going to be seeing a lot of ice time.

 

[Trolfoli]

Bets on broken finger/metacarpal?

This isn't a problem... just LTIR him till the playoffs and stock up.

 

[damacles1156]

Haha.

Richards comes back at league minimum, and lights the world on fire.

The Hf boards would love that story.

 

[Trolfoli]

I would love to see if Sutter would run 7D, Weal, or Richards given the choice.

 

[Omni Owl]

Nah, Richards is either going to NJ or SJ.

 

[kingsholygrail]

TheScore is saying "...to miss 3 games" regarding Carter. Might not be something major, but definitely an injury that needs a week or two.

Hoping it's something that simple.

 

[Omni Owl]

This is why I'm always harping about being deep at center. Lucic has been pretty good, but sometimes I think DL should've gone the safer route and got a decent 3C.

 

[Reclamation Project]

And if Muzzin or Doughty went down we'd need a defenseman. There is no easy backup plan for replacing your star players.

 

[theMajor]

Kopitar looks like he rolled out of his casket in the post game show.

Speaking of caskets, looks like the LA Times allowed Helene Elliott out of her crypt.

Ziggy spittin' the fire

The Defense without Muzzin/Drew....Scary.

 

[Omni Owl]

And if Muzzin or Doughty went down we'd need a defenseman. There is no easy backup plan for replacing your star players.

The point is that he could've used the Lucic money to fill a glaring weakness on the roster. Centers are way more important than wingers and defenseman in my book. But whats done is done.
