If Byfield doesn't deserve to have a spot on the Kings roster this season then no one does

Goaltending is still a concern. Quick is on a decline and it's still questionable if Petersen can step up.

As soon as the staff feels the same about Kaliyev, we will be alright.

Damn, you have changed your tune. Good to see.

Would LOVE to see Kaliyev on that PP1 instead of Brown.
..yeah I know..just dreaming

That unit doesn't have any chemistry, so it really doesn't matter who the net-front guy is. They just started playing together but if they don't get some synergy going things need to be moved around. Personally I'd rather see Iafallo in that spot, he's always played well with Kopitar and kept pucks alive.

As for Kaliyev, I'd be satisfied to see him play well enough to earn a spot on the roster. So far he's done great at the AHL level but not much in camps. I don't expect him to be a play driver, but he needs to bring that energy like Toffoli did if he's going to be a sniper.

Though the score sucks, the Kings aren't taking weak shots to the crest. These are legitimate shots on goal.

legitimate shots on goal.

This needs to be the goal for the season.

With even a smidge of luck, he takes Browns spot in the top-6 sometime this season.

This Andersson-Vilardi-Tkachev line is fun to watch. For once a line that knows how to distribute the puck.

I think there is a decent chance that Andersson leads the Kings in goals this year.

All we needed were a Swede and a Russian who weren't indoctrinated in the Kings system

But we learned earlier tonight that "he still has it".

That was a low point in sports broadcasting history, no doubt.

He does still have it. But at least we know "it" isn't hands.

That would be amazing considering he trails all the forwards in ice time.

 

[Little Psycho]

Oh f*** no

 

[kilowatt]

I think Brown is still an NHL player, but RW1 and PP1, probably not. I'm actually fine with him next to Kopitar, I'd just like to see some other guys on the power play.

Andersson
Tkachev - Vilardi - Kopitar
Walker

Brown
Byfield - Arvidsson - Danault
Doughty

 

[TwzKing]

f*** me

 

[Little Psycho]

Yikes that looks like it hurt

 

[Telos]

Cursed man. f***ing cursed. God damn.

 

[DAkings20]

oh f***ing great

 

[KingLB]

Shitttt

Rj, something something jinxed?

 

[Reaper45]

Exact f***ing reason this team needs some toughness.

 

[Master Yoda]

put everybody in a bubble

 

[kilowatt]

f***. f*** f*** f***. That's exactly how I broke my fibula. f*** me.

 

[DAkings20]

broken ankle or Achilles tear?
