Your first point is true. I just hate that we finally got the lead and let them get back in it. My anger is further compounded by being forced to do something on Friday which was thrown at me immediately after the game last night. I don't ask for much and watching the Playoffs is one thing I do for myself. So pissed I have to miss it.

I think that was probably the most aggravating thing from the game last night. Realistically, Chicago was expected to win this game. Hell, they were up 2-0, and 3-1, and they were certainly on their way to defending their home ice again. When Pearson buried the go-ahead goal, a lot of the mentality changed and we probably all forgot we came from behind to get the lead.

At the end of the day though, whether it be a blowout or 2OT game, they won in a building where they don't lose very often at all. Kings still confident and ready to go, and now have a great opportunity back at Staples based off the hard work. Adjustments from Sutter (no more track meet hockey) plus last change and the home crowd give us a very nice opportunity on Friday.

Ugh, yeah.

Though I will say when I saw that line fumbling the puck repeatedly at our blue line I figured bad things would happen.

Gonna need superhuman Quick to show up for the closeout.

Goes back to what we've all said about letting people walk in. Handzus of ALL PEOPLE should not be allowed to walk into the goal. Guy needs to get decked.
 
I didn't get to see the whole game, but from what I saw, it looked like it wasn't so much Quick, but that Chicago was beating us to every rebound. Quick takes the first shot, defense needs to limit any and all secondary chances. You could clearly see Chicago's shooting strategy was to shoot it right along the ice so Quick couldn't hold onto it. The far side guy was streaking towards the net on every shot. Seems like the defense needed to be the first to the puck and they weren't on several occasions.

What's good about this, is that this is an easier adjustment for us to make on defense. Chicago still has no answer for our offense (who would have thought we would ever say that with a straight face). That and our home ice line matchups bodes well for us if we put in the same work ethic.

Start by having a look at this profile of Darryl Sutter via TSN. Some interesting stuff on him.

Didn't know where else to put this.

It was both. I think we can all see by now when Quick is in it, and when he's not. When there's too much athlete, and not enough goalie. It's a fine line. He still makes the crazy save, but the easy ones look tougher than they should. Like that one save where he was in the net last night. That's not Quick when he's playing well.

Man, some of you guys must've been a mess when the Kings went from being up 3-0 in the 2012 Cup Final to 3-2 in the series heading into Game 6.
Click to expand...

Strangely, no. A bit nervous, but reasonably confident the Kings would win. Going up 3-0 in every series does something for your confidence. That and the Devils not being the freakin' Blackhawks.
 
Did not expect a win and felt after Game 2 that this whole series would come down to Game 6; however, I feel worse today than if the Hawks won last night going away as opposed to being one period and then one goal away from the Finals.

Doesn't change anything about Game 6 and the players on this team have proven to be much more resilient than us fans, but that terrible feeling is seeping in that we'll all look back at this game on Monday and wonder what could have been: just ask the Detroit Red Wings.

Saad has been the most dangerous forward in the series IMO so seeing that new 2nd line for the Hawks worried me and, as seen last night, rightfully so. This is definitely a worry moving forward.

Hawks have total confidence as Champs and for coming back from 3-1 last season while LA has the same confidence in their game. Two great teams that are going to have a "who's got the biggest" contest the next two (hopefully only one) games. Friday is going to be an intense day for sure.

In response to Ziggy about Game 6 against NJ: hell yes I was worried! That series was very close score-wise so the thought of going back to NJ for a Game 7 and possibly pissing away the Cup after being up 3-0 was extremely nerve-wracking. Thank goodness they dropped the 3 goals early so I could breathe.

I have the same feeling about tomorrow now since they were so damn close to punching their ticket for the Finals last night. You can't miss on too many opportunities to put away the Blackhawks.
 
I woke up pretty upset over last night's results. Then I took some man pills with my breakfast this morning and I'm fine now. On to Game 6.
 
Are we in trouble now with the Saad-Shaw-Kane line??


And please if you want to ignore me or my questions please tell my what the **** I have done wrong, send me a pm whatever. I consider my self as ..well a good normal guy.
but most of the time it feels or looks like I have been blocked out by most of the people on this board and I have no ****ing idea of why that should have happened or is my timing just ridiculous bad. I've been reading this board for so long that I know what is appropriate or not but still I have this feeling that I have stepped ...no wait crushed some toes for a lot of people on this board. I just don't get it. Me sensitive? Nope.

My questions lousy maybe? I got more conversations or what you call it outside this board HF Lakingsboard, coincidence? Don't think so. Is it my wording or spelling? Do I come out as a low intelligent person? I have seen a bunch of those here as well, they don't seem to get ignored.

As I said I don't get it what the **** am I doing wrong?

I'm confused. This is your only post in this thread from what I can tell. How are you being ignored?


And no, I'm personally not worried about Saad-Shaw-Kane. Chicago is a beast at home and we came close to winning all three games. Although we only got one, I like our chances on Friday.

Not trying to troll but grow a sack.
 
KIngs will be fine tomorrow. Chi is a different team at home vs the road. If it was said kings would have home ice going into game 6 with a chance to close it out you take it every single time.

They will hold chicago to 2 goals quick will be better, and They will win 5 to 2. Book it!
 
To DocWest:
This has been going on for quite some time and is spread over many threads.

To the other guy:
No, this is not a get sack thing. This is what the heck is going on thing?

Just relax dude. I doubt anyone is ignoring you. The PGTs, especially after a loss, are so ****ing hectic I doubt that anyone reads anybody else's posts :laugh:

People aren't actively ignoring you. Hell if I counted up all of the posts I've made over the years that no one replied to, it'd be in the hundreds. Don't worry about it. It's nothing personal.
