Kings are getting some great chances but, no luck so far

 

[KingsCorona]

Holy crap that was a crazy sequence!

 

[kingsfan28]

Stone hands once again withing 5 feet of the net.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Seems automatic that the 70s line 2.0 has a scoring chance every shift.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Considering the hook doughty got called for caps have gotten away with a few on scoring chances.

Good period of hockey though!

 

[BigBrown]

Holtby certainly came to play tonight.

 

[taz346]

good 1st. Kings seem to have overcome those slow starts that they were having for prev games

 

[damacles1156]

Brown's effort and drive, is being wasted with Stoll as his center.

At least put Brown with someone that can skate with him.

 

[kingsfan28]

Good period, but no finish again. Way too many missed chances so far.

 

[KingsHockey24]

Yawn, an okay first I guess.

 

[scryan]

Holtby certainly came to play tonight.

Seems like that guy is pretty good at hockey.

 

[DocWest]

Ok period. We got frazzled after our poop PP. Our PK needs to be muuuuch better too.

Like on the top line? Those three were getting good chemistry during the last half of the road trip and what does Sutter do...break up the line as soon as we get home. There was even good chemistry with Lewis on the third with Williams and Stoll. Sutter confuses me to no end when thing are going good.

Won't post till they score IMO

"Ersberg would've had that."

 

[kingsfan28]

Like when he plays the Kings. He looked really good in both games so far.

 

[damacles1156]

Williams seems to have aged like Five years in an off-season. The playoff's must have really took it out of him or something.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Ovechkin's beard is magnificent.

 

[kingsfan28]

Right in the junk!

Two elite players going head to head. It's always a treat to watch.

He's been dong that all year, he tends not to be a whole lot of stock in stability. And Lewis and Stoll shine brighter in his eyes than the rest. Awhile ago when he moved Lewis up to the firstline ,he said is was for speed, not scoring He felt that Lewis would be faster, and get to the puck quicker, keep it in.. etc.
I don't like that, I like chemistry better and Brown played with Kopitar for years and did quite well. But putting him with Stoll the last two has made a negative impact, Brown points are down for 2 years due to that move.

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

Brown needs to be back with Kopitar already. He deserves it.

That move has made the 1 and 3 lines ineffective AGAIN. I love what Lewis brings, but everyone knows he's not a top 6 player.
