Stoll use to be a great face off guy and Defensive dynamo, when he was 27-30 years of age.

That ship sailed, and hit an iceberg.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Well, one thing is he's supposed to be a great f/o guy. So much for that myth

He was until they made the Stoll rule after 2012. lol

 

[Jeff18]

2 on 0 for the fourth line

 

[kingsfan28]

I don't think we gave the Oilers any momentum after that pp.

 

[damacles1156]

It's why I laugh whenever people say more power plays would solve the scoring woes in the NHL. I actually think it would slow the game down and even lower scoring. A good PK is 85+%. That's nearly killing all PPs.

A good PP now is what... 20%? That's still only 1 in 5.

Correct you are.

20% is great actually. The Pens run about 24% yearly (since Crosby).

That is like World class; but it's because Pitt has Letang/Crosby/Malkin on the ice.

That is some serious puck handling skills/scoring ability to try and defend for 2 minutes.

 

[Jeff18]

Embarrassing

 

[Reclamation Project]

Oilers must not score a lot. That goal horn, lol. Some great big fat person was sitting on it.

 

[taz346]

Klinkhammer scores. lol, love that name. Sounds like some kind of a door knocker. Oh he didn't get the goal.

 

[kingsfan28]

Boo!
3-1

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Great pass to the Oilers point man from Muzzin.

 

[King RAZZ]

Goal scores...glass breaks... Was Stoll anywhere near it???

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

God ****ing damnit.

And yet another tip goal of course.

Yeah exactly. So a more average PP is around 15% or so, right where of course a decent PK would be(85). That's not exactly guaranteed goals.

Unfortunately for the Kings, in their last 30, they're batting 6.6% rofl so even worse by far.

 

[Bandit]

Quick was sliding pretty hard there. Nice tip though.

 

[Jeff18]

****ing Gazdic? Even more embarrassing

 

[damacles1156]

God ****ing damnit.

Well Quick's save% is shot for this game.

 

[kingsfan28]

The Kings never exploit a team when they break a stick, the next shot always gets blocked and goes out of the zone.

 

[Nefarious]

Need Voynov and AMart back. That'd be cool. Even with Voynov being rusty, would be better than Greene/McNabb/RR, take your pick.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Kings melting down..

 

[kingsfan28]

Back to back turnovers that lead to scoring chances. They're not playing this period smart.

EDIT:Add another one by Kopitar.

 

[damacles1156]

That was an awful turnover by Kopitar.

Right at Center ice with an Oiler going full speed.

 

[Captain Mittens*]

Need Voynov and AMart back. That'd be cool.

 

[King RAZZ]

The Colonel!!!!

 

[kingsholygrail]

Garbage goal. I'll take it.

 

[kingsfan28]

Big red dog!

4-1
