LoL every SJ game has been like that hasn't it ?

Kings have given up an early PP goal in every game in SJ.

I wonder if Sutter doesn't see some of himself in Nolan and especially Clifford. I can't understand for the life of me why Clifford is constantly moved up to the scoring lines, he has skated with Carter/Richards and Kopitar for way way to much this season.

Nolan was good on the 4th line last year, same with Fraser, right now they are liabilities. Clifford at this point is a good 4th liner, and Nolan is injury depth. Toffoli did more in Game 2 than those two have done the entire playoffs.

 

[KingKopitar11*]

Perhaps he was hoping that all the hitting and size would just push them into submission like last year? Not sure why we would sit Toffoli. Guy can score and LA needs goals.

Don't think so. We played that game with Toffoli in last game. I don't know.

Anyways let's hope we win. I'm tired of boarding Thornton and Galiardi in nhl 13. I gotta admit though it does make me happy doing it. Lol.

 

[Puck U]

Btw, have not all our losses this playoff been by the score of 2-1?

Yep ... actually ALL our losses, in the St Louis series as well as the San Jose series. Wierd huh ?

Energy, Brown was lifeless this series with Kopitar, had to do something.

It worked, Brown last two games much better.

Also spreads everyone's minutes out. Cause Sutter is going to play that Third line more with Brown on it.

Yep, Kings insist on spotting the Sharks an early lead for their hometown fans.

 

[ARIES626]

Kings need a player like Toffoli to put points on the board more than Nolan's ability to hit someone. IMHO.

Great. How about we buck that trend?

[Ziggy Stardust]

Time to come out guns blazing and end this series in San Jose. Send all of those Sharks fans home, disappointed, feeling empty.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Good job laying the body by the Kings on the Sharks. They keep this play up and I'm still hopeful of them wrapping this shlizz up tonight.

 

[kingsfan28]

I think Sutter wanted Nolan for the hitting, but Nolan has not played well all year.

Have you seen him hit anyone all game? I sure haven't. Toffoli was the only one generating any offense on that line, and they were good quality chances too, not some weak wrist shot from the point

 

[TonySCV]

I just want OT. It's going to take everything the Kings have to just tie it. They haven't won in San Jose in over 2 years! Their faceoff % is atrocious again as well. only 33% through 2.

The last time the Kings won a game (ANY game) in San Jose was Apr. 23, 2011. A 3-1 victory in Game 5 of their Conf. Quarterfinal playoff series. Yeesh.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Lets come out strong and take it to them here

 

[KINGS17]

C'mon Larry, you know you can't make chicken soup out of chicken ****, right?

The Kings are simply the better team.

 

[kingsfan28]

I like that stat with 5 in the 3rd... hope they make it 6 and 7 before games end

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

These neutral zone turnovers are unacceptable. Get the effin' puck out.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

We keep turning it over

 

[kingsfan28]

back to back turnovers by that line...not how you start the 3rd

 

[ARIES626]

Brain dead start.

 

[Muzzfan]

5 times we try to get over the redline and we can't get over it.

Come on guys. Work harder.

 

[Alisa]

It's coming...

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Another neutral zone turnover by Penner...

Yeah, Penner is having his worst game in quite a while
