GDT: Game #42: LA. WHY_BOTHERS @ ST. WILL_CRUSH_US - Thursday, 1/2/’13 @ 5:00 pm PST

[HansH]

The horrifying thing is, St. Louis is ACTUALLY the "best team in the league" by winning percentage at this moment (.756 to the Blackhawks' .750).

Is it possible to lose 1 to -1?

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Third line looks interesting, giving Frattin another shot at left wing might not be a terrible idea.

At this point, it's basically "why not". We have tried everyone we have over on the left side and nobody has come close to filling that massive hole. No way Frattin can be worse than Lewis was.

Not sure we win this one, but I'm hoping for an exciting game. A losing streak is one thing, but a losing streak where the games are boring is a whole other ballgame. The Kings are putting me to sleep here recently

 

[Falco Lombardi]

So what's different for you guys? Haven't really seen a lot of the Kings this year. Heard Jones (who I'm looking forward to seeing) was 8-0-0 to start his career and then not much else until somebody told me you had been on a losing streak the past few games.

Is there an injury that changed something or is it just the slumps that every team goes through?

 

[Sacha Baron Corbin]

I was very pro-Frattin when the trade was made. He was awful against Dallas. I , for one, don't get it

I thought Frattin was one of the bright spots against Dallas.

We have been incredibly undisciplined all year and our PK is going through a bit of a bad stretch (6pp goals against in our last 21 times SH, .714%). The PP continues to be mostly garbage, and our scoring has dried-up. Other than that, everything is fine

I've always been impressed with Frattin's speed and work ethic....problem is nothing ever seems to come of it.

Kings get back on winning track this evening and that will put an end to all the pessimism one can find on this board. Gheez, nothing to get depressed about, it is a long season and one must expect a slump sooner or later.

This team has all that is needed to go all the way.

GKG!

Why is that? did you have sex with her on New years Eve?

where the hell did you dig up this picture of my mom?

Trevor Lewis says hi.

 

[Muzzinga]

When can we play the east again?

Craig Johnson sends his regards.

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

Craig Johnson sends his regards.

Please....CJ didn't even have the speed! I mean, they all claimed he had it...but he sure never used it.

 

[Riposte!]

im excited about it but im also one of the few people here that still believes in Frattin

I'm sure the power of belief will fix his team-leading -7 (which is three points off from the next worst forward, Fraser, who is -4). The only other players on the team who have minuses are all -1 (Lewis, Carcillo, Pearson).

 

[scryan]

it is RIDICULOUS how classy that playoff beard T-shirt is.

 

[redcard]

Eeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllliiiiiiiooooooooooooooooooot

 

[YP44]

Can you say it is a 1-0 league.

 

[kingsholygrail]

I love that playoff beard t-shirt...just not the woman wearing it. lol

She might be the slumpbuster that Trevor Lewis needs.

He was phenomenal against Dallas. He was everywhere.

Let's finally win something

 

[BlueDream]

You guys should be pretty confident, you could probably beat the Blues with only 11 skaters dressed.

Trevor Lewis can't have enough slump busters.

Really?? I thought he played well considering the ice time he got. He was using his speed and getting the fore check, trying to make plays.

We can't beat AHL defense as it is.
