Was just about to post, was on a Zoom call for Junior IIs 8th grade DC/NY trip next year. Ms Puck II is leaving at 345am on 3/30, I'm like crap I just paid off her $3200 for this trip and now I get to do it again and then one more time in 2026 foe Junior II. Wise man once told me, don't ever get married, don't ever have kids. Obviously I didn't listen to that second part. Oops.

=)~~

Hawks got thumped last week by LA and have won 4 of the last 6, I expect them to come out hard tonight. Kings need to keep racking up points to stay ahead of Vegas but any slip up and they're basically 5 points out of a PO spot. Again, shitting the bed hard those 20 games really put the heat OK them. For once I'd just like to see this team come out in October and roll like some other teams do through April instead of putting themselves in unnecessary high pressure situations.

Arvidsson skated but will not be in tonight, going 11/7 again so Arty Retardy out, Moverare in as D7. Talbot not on the ice today so assuming he is the starter. Hope Jill isn't burning him out as the season winds down and the POs are approaching, he's back to playing well again. I would have started Rittich tonight.

Prediction: Kings win 4-3, Buster, Kempe, Turcotte and The Lizard.

Let's Go Kings!

Rough shift for Gavrikov, right up the middle and chooses to pass, then the weird bounce to give Euthanasia a semi break.

Have to be smarter than that, I don't know why these guys pass up primo chances constantly and look for a better play. If you're walking up Main Street shoot the effing puck.

 

[Kings4OT]

Lafer the greasy one, 1-0

 

[PuckinUgly57]

I almost put him down for the Lizotte pick, should have trusted my gut.

These are the goals these guys need to get, just go to the net and do dirty work.

 

[Kings4OT]

Of course

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Foligno, Bjugstad, commonality? Big centers who go to the net. Kings needed one of those M6/B6 guys the last few years especially in the POs.

 

[Kings4OT]

Mrazek having a good game... Seems like the king's always make goalies look good, . Especially when they play backups or call ups That's the worst

 

[Kings4OT]

Gavrikov 2-1

 

[Kings4OT]

There we go, Kopistar 3-1....nice Hawks turnover.....gonna get ugly from here probably

 

[Kings4OT]

Kopistar with the Mcflurry

4-1

 

[davnlaguna]

Hopefully it doesn’t get too stupid in the third
Kings play tomorrow

 

[Kings4OT]

Solid win as i hoped, GoldenShowers lost....need a good effort tomorrow, with Turcotte leaving i wouldnt be suprised to see Retardy and Arvidsson....

Feel the same way. Especially on 2 on 1's. Defender usually just gives you the lane/shot and so many times the Kings still force the pass and don't even get a shot off.

Needed this win. Huge game tomorrow vs Wild. Kings have a tough stretch of games, then a pretty easy stretch, so it would be really nice to grind some big points out over these next two weeks.

Big and pretty tough stretch right here these next 6:

Been a hallmark this season. Have watched a ton of games and I do not see that as much from other teams.

These guys try to get cute, flub passes or something and the puck dies in the corner or something.
