GDT: WCSF’s Game#3: KINGS(3 vs DUCKS(1 | Thursday, 5/8/14 @ 7:00 pm PT | NBCSN TSN RDS

[Ollie Weeks]

Every line has played 13-14 minutes. Its actually a miracle we're only down 1-0 ES.

If you willingly play Clifford/Lewis as much as Kopitar/Gaborik, you're going to have a bad time.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Piss poor effort, and Sutter did some questionable things tonight

Yep, his line matchups were brutal.

And how ****ing bad is it that this team gave up two goals on outnumbered attacks? Brutal.

 

[King RAZZ]

Piss poor effort, and Sutter did some questionable things tonight

That effort also applies to the refs...

It's not good when you have to beat the Ucks AND the refs...

 

[Herby]

The Kings can't have Getzlaf play 19 minutes to Kopitar's 14. That is bad bad bad.

 

[TheSentinel]

perry is an absolute puss

 

[Ollie Weeks]

The Kings can't have Getzlaf play 19 minutes to Kopitar's 14. That is bad bad bad.

Here's the ultimate question though: WHY?!

 

[onlyalad]

Has there been any news on how long Regher will be out?

I don't know how long it takes to recover from an undisclosed injury

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

Sutter is as much to blame as the players imo, his matchups have been garbage all night.

 

[Ventana*]

The league obviously wants a 7 game series out of this for revenue purposes. So many blatant high sticks and obstruction.

 

[Whiskeypete]

Way Way Way Way to much of the 3rd and 4th lines in the final 10 minutes of this game.

I love Sutter but there comes a time where the benches have to be shortened. We were not getting a goal from the 3rd and 4th lines.

agreed. i was reading on LAKI today Sutter's comments about games 1 and 2, how he was keeping TOI equal across all four lines. how he didn't think if OT went longer in the game 1 if they would have the legs.

my guess is he is protecting and resting guys tonight. LA still has home ice at this point, so they can afford one loss.

LA looked flat all night.

ANH out hustled them all night. Boudreau's line up adjustments worked well, especially fistric out and Vatenen in at D. ANH played a solid structure all night also, tight 5 man unit with an aggressive forecheck and tight backcheck. Ducks played a solid game tonight, better team won tonight

 

[King RAZZ]

Cannon!!!!!

 

[FPotvin39]

Ritchie!

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Lol!

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

Wow.

 

[kovacro]

Nice hand/eye co-ordination by Richie.

 

[Chain]

Why has the bottom 6 gotten so much ice time? They have been bad all game.

No clue. Sutter sometimes is brilliant and other times is very questionable.

 

[The Butcher]

Make em' sweat it out

 

[King RAZZ]

Did Fairy steal one of Voynov's sticks???

 

[Live in the Now]

The hand-eye required to do that is absurd.

 

[TheSentinel]

we're pretty much done but **** it, make them pay.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Richards finally off the snide.

 

[Whiskeypete]

sick ass hand-eye by Richards on the goal

 

[Chain]

The league obviously wants a 7 game series out of this for revenue purposes. So many blatant high sticks and obstruction.

I'm starting to think the same thing.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Boudreau moves Getzlaf away from Kopi because his line is getting dominated. The Kings return to Staples, and Sutter does it for him, that's just ridiculous

 

[Puck U]

If we tie this up I'll laugh my ass off.
