Don't be a jabroni.
Game day again, I'll be able to catch a little bit before a softball game at 545.
A few connections tonight, Carter Hart is hurt and after being waived our old buddy Cal Petersen was recalled and could face the Kings tonight. Good, because he sucks. Arguably the worst contract Blake handed out but at least he got rid of it. Had to pay a premium to do it (salary retention on Provarov - anyone realize that is $2+ million on the cap? The price you pay for being an idiot with a checkbook) but I'd rather have a mannequin in net than Petersen.
Sean Walker also set to face the Kings, I really liked him when he was here. Nothing spectacular, just a solid player. It took him almost all season to get back to form after he blew out his knee early in 2021 but he got there and with all the youth coming up on D and his age and salary you knew he was going to be moved. Hope he has a good game but not one where he puts a dagger on the Kings.
Talbot set to start again, no doubt he is the #1 in LA now. I was hoping to see Copley because he needs a game and I dont want to see Talbot run into the ground, but his appearances haven't exactly exuded confidence. Talbot also played a handful of games for the Flyers back in 2018-19, so he is going to face a former team too. All kinds of Flyers Kings connections tonight, just need Dumbo in the stands. Kings are rolling with the same lineup the last 8 games, JAD and Bjornfot extras.
Prediction: Kings win 4-3, Kopitar with a goal, Doughty, Lewis and Fiala one each. Buster trips on the red line.
Let's Go Kings!
