GDT: Welcome to the Black Parade: WCQF Game 2, (1) Vegas Golden Knights vs (WC1) LA Kings @7:00

[kingsholygrail]

That's probably going to be a tough one to come back from. Maybe even had they won. They were just trying to get to the next shift all through OT. On auto-pilot. They have a game in less than 2 days, and they've looked tired for about 90% of the series already.

Hope Quick makes every save, and hope Vegas makes a mistake. That's all they've had for 8 periods.

Terry Murray hockey. Sit in your own zone and try to counter attack.

 

[LAKings88]

I don’t know if LA can pull this series off.

Vegas deserves some credit.

But man, they lost two hard fought games by one goal. Playing through adversity.

I’ll be screaming for them on Sunday. One game at time mentality now. Heck, one shift at a time.

Aren't you suppose to shake hands when the serirs is over!

 

[DryIslandBartender]

Terry Murray hockey. Sit in your own zone and try to counter attack.

That’s exactly what happened.

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

This is the last game Gravel will play in a Kings uni. Mark my words.

I was just about to say God help us if he ever has to play again, he looked completely outclassed

 

[BringTheReign]

TLDR: Fantenberg, Quick, and Martinez vs. the Vegas Golden Knights

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Line blender time. Mix it all up. They're generating absolutely zero offense out there.

 

[Little Psycho]

Don't know if I see a comeback guys. Muzzin and DD will help for a cleaner breakout but everyone has hands for butter and is shit at passing. I'm know upset we didn't vs the Sharks or Ducks instead, it would have had the same anything.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Why don't any of these reporters ask them why none of the forwards can score a goal?

Sharks would be blowing out the Kings. Ducks would've just made us more mad.

f*** Vegas but I'd rather lose to them than Anaheim.

 

[Sol]

Did this game wear out a lot of you guys as well? I'm dead

 

[regulate]

Can't win if you don't score.

Shots on goal by line...

Pearson-Kopitar-Brown: 11
Rieder-Carter-Lewis: 5
Clifford-Kempe-Toffoli: 6
Thompson-Amadio-Mitchell: 1

That’s in almost 100 minutes of hockey. Only 23 shots generated by forwards. Only three Kings dmen had shots on net; Phaneuf, Gravel, and Folin didn’t register any shots.

An offensive powerhouse this is not. The Kings are a one line team, and if Kopitar doesn’t produce, they’re done.

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Are you for ****ing real? How many Ontario Reign players did we ice tonight? Too old?

They’re the oldest team in the playoffs, even with the “Ontario” lineup tonight. And one of those Ontario players scored our only goal this series. So I have no f***ing clue what you’re getting at here throwing shade at the Reign kids.

Kopitar, Brown, Carter - these are the players who win and lose games, and they’re laying a big goose egg. Kopitar could barely take a shift toward the end of 2OT.

Blame it on Reign players if it makes you feel better. Mark of a truly blind homer. Meanwhile, our top guys - our OLD guys - are flatlining.

You do know that the Golden Knights aren't a young team right? Which younger players do the Kings need to call up to make this a victory? Vilardi?

I think you forgot number 11.

He's not blaming the Reign players. He's saying the Reign players make the team younger cause the original post said the Kings are too old.

 

[tny760]

kopitar has been completely shut down this series and he missed his one opportunity so i'm not very happy with him

however i'm even more upset with the absolute ghost jeff carter has become, i mean i don't see him at either end of the ice these past 2 games

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

I feel bad for Quick, Marty, and Fantenberg who all played the game of their lives but couldn’t get the same effort from anyone else. LA is up 2-0 if Quick got any offensive support

 

[Little Psycho]

I'm so angry at Stevens for his dumb f***ing line combos. Like hey bozo it ain't working

Carter said adios after game 80.

The Kings forwards are bad, probably the worst in the playoffs 1-14. Lots of reasons why that is, but it needs to be addressed by management in the offseason.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Gutsy effort by the Kings.

Not even mad.

We'll win the next two at home, I have a good feeling.

f*** the NHL, 2 goals on our #9 defenseman.

Goaltending performance for the ages by Quickie, was worth watching for that alone.

Like Paul LaDue said, LETS GOOOOOOOO

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Quick is the only reason these first two games haven’t been blowouts. Seems like 80% of the games have been spent in his end.

 

[Peter James Bond II]

Is JAD eligible to play? has 2 pts in 3 games with the Reign and 7 shots on goal. (yes, this is a real question. not looking for "no way, in no way is he capable". Well, half the King forwards are not capable either. JAD had 100 pts this yr 91 reg season 9 in playoffs. NHL speed and shot already)
