What happened to the team that went 16-2-4 in Nov-Dec?

OK Lombardi, this team needs a big-time shakeup. There aren't a lot of tradeable assets without giving up some of the little talent they have but something needs to be done. It's getting to be a very ugly trend that they score first and then can't sustain the play that gets them that first goal. The second half of that 2nd period was just plain horrible hockey.

What went wrong in the 2nd he asks?

There's not enough time in the intermission to list it all.

Why am I not excited about this upcoming Kings power play?

Most redundant phrase in hockey.. "And the Kings have failed on this power play"

 

[pete6835]

Why is Doughty with Sukzin??

Or Stoll on a PP????????????????

Or Stoll on a PP????????????????

At this point, it really doesn't matter whose out there on the PP... They aren't scoring.

 

[pete6835]

When does a closed door team only meeting happen??

I'm speaking of the Power Play.

Gotta wonder how many of these people chanting "Beat LA" are also Laker fans.

I think regardless of whomever won this game, there would be an unsettling feeling at the end. Although they all count the same, this game was just a prelude to Saturday's game.

 

[pete6835]

Kings officially suck...

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

No way this team will make noise in the playoffs. Sad but true!

 

[pete6835]

I'm sorry, but Sutter's decisions on the lines and the match-ups are to blame.

Pig headed.

Most likely all of them that haven't switched over to the Clippers because the Lakers are down this year. But then the Clippers are an LA team also. Then they are all no doubt Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim fans.

Can't really agree with you there Pete. He's doing just what almost every NHL coach would do in the same situation. He's trying any and all combinations to try and generate some offense. I blame the effort by the players. There is absolutely no urgency in there play especially on special teams.
