Don't be a jabroni.
Late post, been a busy day but game time is at 430 so 15 minutes.
Blues are fighting for a PO spot, they are 8 points behind the Kings and Vegas for WC2. Kings are PD3 by way of points percentage but they could fall to WC2 as well based on what's going on in the division. The Blues are going on a 4 game homestand so this is an important stretch of games for them, I expect them to play hard. Bennington in net, he's a hot head, crash the net and get under his skin. Former Kings 1st round pick Schenn and Robert Thomas on their L1, Thomas is a great player and Schenn plays heavy hockey.
Talbot in net, most likely going with the same line combos as Monday which means Arty Retardy will be scratched. Interesting comments from Jill, when asked about that he said "coach's decision". I don't think a guy can get any more worse than he has played this season, but that sure sounds to me he didn't have a good practice. I'm going ro assume he's unhappy (as he should be) and it's translating everywhere from practice to game time. We are seeing the last days of this guy, I guarantee it.
It's going to be throwback night kind of, Kings wearing the chevron alternate and chrome domes, Blues wearing that ugly ass 1996 jersey when Gretzky was traded to St. Louis. Almost takes me back to "The Dark Years" but both teams have won Cups since those days obviously.
Prediction: Kings win 3-2. Kopitar, PLD and Spence.
Let's Go Kings!
