It's not emotion people are showing it's called being over dramatic

Really? Losing 5 to nothing and not showing one ounce of emotion on the ice and its being over dramatic?

 

[Bandit]

It's not about anger, it's about energy. Sharks have it all tonight. If this happens on Sunday, it will just like last season, down 2-0 in the first round.

Anger leads to energy, energy leads to goals, goals lead to victories, victories lead to the cup...

 

[kingsfansince1967]

Jones should be in for the 3rd.

 

[kovacro]

Minny & Colorado going to OT.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Wait.

 

[Tadite]

Wow. Hahah.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Maybe getting blown out is exactly what the doctor ordered. Quick standing on his head and losing 2-1 would have just made Sutter stick with the garbage lineup he had today.

To many players in the Kings lineup are in spots they shouldn't be.

King (should be 3rd line)
Toffoli (should be top 6)
Richards (should be bottom six)
Pearson (should be playing)
Nolan (shouldn't be playing)

Inserting Pearson into the lineup and having him with Carter and TT gives the Kings a 2nd line that is atleast a threat to score. And King-Stoll-Brown played well when Sutter put them together. Still no idea why he broke up those lines.

Agreed.

Sutter was playing with fire changing things up. I can only assume he was trying to inspire confidence by just saying **** it and rolling Richards up vs Thornton. Don't get me wrong there's a lot of issues here but coaching takes the blame tonight and heavily as well.

 

[damacles1156]

Love Toews man , I would pick him over any Center in the league.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Remarkably bad defense tonight. Not normal kings.

Still think the cold shoulder on Kopitar was bush league. Not to mention running quick.

Maybe, but guess what? The have attitude. I remember the take no prisoner kings from 2012. These guys are just rolling over.

It's great to see all the doctors and nhl GMs who post in here, everyone knows best but will be the first to jump back on the bandwagon

[Herby]

I disagree.

We discussed a lot of this in the threads leading up to this game and as Kings head coach Sutter should see the same stats that were posted here, but apparently he didn't or refused to believe them. The Kings lineup to start the game was a joke and Sutter deserves plenty of blame.

Hopefully there are adjustments, but many of us saw this coming with the lineup the Kings had out there tonight.

Dude is taking a beating out there.

I wanted certain players gone after the cup win , and certain ones not resigned. Have posts with dates too back that up sooooo.

Herby can vouche for that as well.

Guess you should be the coach then with all the experience you have and stanley cups

Completely agreed. Thank god this isn't champions league or else the kings would be screwed.


Hopefully DL is paying attention though. It's always fast/offensive teams give us so much trouble.

I.E Chicago, Ducks, And Sharks.

It says a lot about our defense and inept offense.

The core needs to be broken if we get kicked first round especially.

 

[The Night King]

Well, I think the Kings needed an ass kicking to wake them up.

 

[takk]

LOL Steen again.

 

[Tadite]

Maybe, but guess what? The have attitude. I remember the take no prisoner kings from 2012. These guys are just rolling over.

Attitudes overrated. That's just something you say about teams when they're winning. Hell blues just won... Guess they have more attitude?

I can't believe you don't have a job in the nhl yet

 

[kingsfansince1967]

Blues win in 3OT.

 

[damacles1156]

Well Steen ends it, the Blues escape a really bad game.

 

[kovacro]

Blues just won in OT.

 

[takk]

Switch to the Colorado game now.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Damn, this game is like the Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios fight. Except I'm rooting for the slow team in this game.
