Only if you're a whiny ass prima donna kings fan. The hit was clean, get over it. No one is talking about it, because there's nothing worth talking about, unless, once again, you're a whiny ass, prima donna kings fan.

Yeesh, no wonder other fans hate some of us.

I'm not the only one that feels this way. Guys jumping out of the box or off the bench have no business throwing an immediate hit. Couture knew what he was doing, it was a ***** move, especially after an emotional game.

It's not worth discussing in a national context but it was a clear precursor to Lucic's anger.
 
I'm really surprised that there is so little chatter about the Couture hit on Lucic around the league. That hit was clean from a rule book standpoint, but it was a dirty, cheap play from a game situation standpoint. All these people saying "beauty hit" and all this other garbage have never played the game on any level. At that point in the game, with that score, knowing the player does not suspect it, that hit is delivered for no reason other than malice. Any player in any league would respond to that hit accordingly because they would understand the intent of it immediately. Anyone who thinks Couture didn't know what he was doing is being incredibly naive.

Very good points. I brought this up in the GDT, Couture basically was waiting for him when he came of the box and knew he had a free shot at him. He was already in the box for running Quick, then tried to low bridge Lucic the moment he came out.

Is that in the rule book??? You're trying to make something an absolute, out of something grey, VERY grey.

No, it's not a rule, and it's far from an absolute; I'm just saying I can understand why he's pissed off because as a player I LOATHE that play, you can't defend yourself against it and you often can't see it coming, a guy coming from off the playing surface directly into you is garbage. Especially one who knows the game situation and is trying to show your team up in a blowout.
 
The look on Lucic face as he went down the tunnel said it all, "There will be a reckoning"

Perfect serial killer face. Regardless of how he's played (which I still think it's ridiculous to judge him after a couple games, but nevertheless many are writing him off already), there is no denying he is one mean SOB. His build, attitude, and expressions are badass. I hope this guy has a monster season.

It was a completely legal hit, but worth talking about due to the situation (score, time). Those things aren't mutually exclusive.
 
When it's not under 2 min and the game is already well decided. It was 5-1 with under 2 min to go with horseface in the box, then it escalated the moment he came out.

So you're saying with 2 minutes to go in the game it's ok, but not a second later???

Doesn't really sound like good logic to me.
 
Come on man, it was 5-1. Couture did it on purpose and then cowered. He took off to the bench and then laughed afterwards. Total dumbass sequence.
 
Of course he did it on purpose. Do you think that Couture accidentally knocked Lucic on his ass? And since when is it NOT ok to go to the bench, coming out of the penalty box.

This one is 100% on Lucic.

No, it's not. If you can't see that, then it's probably time to pick up your contra-box and move over to the Sharks board.

See ya.
 
Well, if you guys can't see that your views are only shared by other kings fans here and no other nhl fans, that should tell you something, hopefully.

Who's fault is it that Lucic wasn't paying attention? Lucic! Simple. Get over it, and stop your whining!
 
Alrighty then. Kings are up 5-1 with a little time left in the third, Brown exits the box, and crushes Hertl. What happens?

Mike Brown goes after him.

Running someone when they are coming out of the box when you are up 5-1 that late in the game is like stealing a base when you are 10-1 in the in the top of the 9th in baseball. Or leaving in your starters when there is 2:30 left in a football game when you are leading 73-6.


It's a dick move.
 
Brown cowers his way to the bench as Hertl goes after him and elbows Brown. The majority of sharx fanbase whine and ***** about how Brown is a dirty player, and a coward.
 
All I know is if i'm going to punch someone bigger then me in the face it's not gonna be a sucker punch, and I hope it lays him out, otherwise, I know i'm dead or very close to it.
