Kings Vision: Who will start in goal for the LA Kings Vs. St. L. Blues, Saturday March 4, 2023

[DryIslandBartender]

are we just going to gloss over the fact that Villalta and Hrenak are actual options in this poll?

Where’s FukiFuji as an option?

Korpisallo needs reps with the team. Get him games so his teammates can learn how he plays and adjust to him.

St Louis beat up on the sharts 6-3.
I do not know if this is the optimal game for that.
But maybe it is the best choice looking at the schedule and Copley's last few performances.

We're running out of teams we should be able to beat. lol It's a lot of high division games from here on out.

Are we now doing this every game?

Yes.
"We" will rotate.
So, that means you post it next game.

Apologies if this has been covered, as I sifted through some threads but couldn't find anything.

Have the Kings stated that the goaltending will be running in tandem now? Copleysalo style? Or is there going to be a definitive starter? Thank you for your time!

It sounds like they're going to be running a tandem, unless one goalie really gets hot.

I'm guessing Copely starts today against his former team.

I'm pretty sure it's gonna be Hrenák against St. Louis, and I'm happy to have been able to slip my vote in just before this poll closes.

(Seriously, I was hoping to see my compatriot Hrenák in the AHL this season, to form a duo with Chromiak, but the Kings' trading for Portillo likely isn't a good sign for Hrenák – at around 3 GAA & .900 saves % in the ECHL this season after 33 games.)

Did you post todays starting goalie poll?
I can't find it.
Please register my vote for Copley.
Thank you

Tmac said they would rotate and gave Copley props along with positive comments about acquiring Korpi.
I think Korpi is picked up to be a number one, but what they are saying drives internal competition between the two.
After watching Quick's massive loss of form since the playoffs last and Cal's decline since he was rewarded with a contract, I am sure Blake will take the rest of the season to watch Korpi and offer him an extension before free agency opens commiserate to his performance.
They could have other FA goalie on their list depending on salary cap constraints and who else they like. Considering they paid a 1st for Korpi and Gravi and Quick's ejection, signing elsewho would reflect somewhat poorly on management.

If the Kings win, and Dallas loses, LA will be tied for 1st in the conference points-wise.
