Muzzin isn't the core of the problem.
It's the rest of the Kings that need to step it up.

His passing has been bad, he has taken a bunch of icings, and seems to move into position to get his shot blocked

OK, when an opportunity arise, Kane, Toews, Hossa or Sharp should be flatten and layout.

 

[Shellz]

Kings will not be fine. You taking crazy pills.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Did anyone really believe Richards was 'fine?'

I was hoping

 

[cneil99]

Richards was out for warmups apparently, if he's concussed that wouldn't be allowed was it

 

[CowMix]

Carter going step up and revenge his Bromance. Carter hat trick!

Re: Richards. The only angle I saw, the camera didn't follow Richards into the boards. Did his head hit the ice or boards? I cannot imagine the shoulder / elbow to the jaw, gives him another concussion.

 

[CowMix]

Since Richards was in for warmups I'm hoping hes just too bang up to play a back to back, I think he'll be back game 3

None of the lineup changes matter if kopitar/brown are no shows again.

 

[Live in the Now]

lol, ok. Yeah, it's not like Richards has been our best center in these playoffs and plays PK, PP, and very important minutes.

I know you don't think very highly of the dude, but this is a big loss.

He's been our best forward. The one thing that saves us is that if he or Kopitar went down, his linemate can play center so we can retain everyone else in their proper roles.

 

[Bandit]

Still don't get why they make such a big deal about this guy singing the anthem...

 

[Little Psycho]

Hit their top guys hard

 

[CowMix]

With Richards out, I wonder if Muzzin is out because he's banged up from that hit in Game 1 not because Sutter wants to play Martinez

 

[Papa Mocha 15]

Now I officially hate the Hawks.......

 

[Peter James Bond]

None of the lineup changes matter if kopitar/brown are no shows again.

This. This has been the Kings biggest problem. No one is stepping up.
Only Williams and Voynov, on occasion. Last year, Lewis and King scored 4 or 5 goals each and everyone was stepping up. This year, no one, really.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Awful

 

[Telos]

This isn't going to be pretty.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.

 

[rubiconpilot]

hAWKS UP 1-0

 

[kingsboy11]

**** Saw that coming a mile away

 

[Little Psycho]

Breakdown. At its the ugly guy

 

[DAkings20]

game over already?

 

[CowMix]

Ugh with Richards out and back to back the line doesn't even get one full practice before the game.

 

[ARIES626]

ahhhh Ppppoooooo!!!

 

[jml87]

Well, they look even worse tonight.
