Yeah, I think after the last 2 years, the Kings are now just another team. No longer can you trust them. They said they were pissed about missing the playoffs last year. They said they wanted the division/conference when both were within striking distance. Then they play the way they did for in the last month of the season, and for the vast majority of that series. It's one thing to not have enough guys at certain positions, it's another for every top player to come up small in a series.

Do not bring Lucic back. Just terrible in the playoffs. Some guys will be back just because, but let that guy walk. That was a very disappointing playoff performance.
 
The Kings were flat out out-played at every position and out coached in every situation. Sucks to see them go out, but they got beat by a better team.

I don't much care who they bring in on defense, but if the Kings keep this dump and chase, shoot from the point, and be completely predictable game next season, might as well not even watch.
 
Look at the sharks bottom six in this game. They are all quick players with some skill. Kings counter with King, Clifford, Lewis, Nolan,Andreoff, Brown etc. Too many grinders with little to no speed or skill.
 
Very disappointed because you always want your team to do good but this team was flawed on defense and it showed....
Dean needs to make the proper decisions this offseason and rebuild this defensive unit, some of these guys need to go....
No Luke Schenn, No Scuderi...these guys constantly made bad mistakes..
Muzzin-Martinez
Doughty-????
???-???
????-Kopitar-?????
Toffoli-Carter-?????
Mersch-Shore-Versteeg
Andreoff-Lewis-Kempe
Do we re-sign Milan Lucic???
Do we trade Dustin Brown??
Do we trade Gaborik???
Do we trade Pearson???
King and Nolan are also guys that have not brought much to this team lately....
 
Stupid penalties, low effort, no offense, no support in the zone, no goalie could win that series. It's simple.

No doubt, the D could have been better but quick could have had a couple of big saves during the series to keep the kings in it. Kings needed 2012 Quick but got the 2011 one this year..
 
Exactly. We had no bussiness being in this series and were outplayed in every single game. Full credit to the Sharks. It will be interning to see how they play against a real hockey team in Round 2.

The Sharks were better. Whadd'ya gonna do? At least we saw them come back to rattle off 3 goals in a row to tie it up. We just didn't have all the horses we needed to win. Sad for Vinny.

Go Reign. Won their game tonight.
 
Well at least it didn't go to overtime and lose. Onto the offseason. Man I thought last years Offseason was tough. Sheesh.

Please don't trade Pearson. That would be stupid.
