GDT: GM #6 LA Kings vs Montreal Candiens @7:30 How Kempe found his smile again!

[Little Psycho]

Multiple sources now saying it doesn't sound good. f***

 

[pbgoalie]

Milbury said " I don't wanna rain on anyone's parade but the teams the Kings have faced have been weak teams"

Look, I'm a Ducks fan, but if Milbury is saying this, you guys are golden!

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

Same, brother.

Keep us updated with what Rosen Tweets out, my man. Please

Amen!

One of the parts of our Cup runs was the seething bitterness from the NBCSN staff.

 

[KingsOfCali25]

You’re not Jeff Carter, hoss, nor do you have the personnel and doctors he has.

It was a contusion. He isn’t out a month. I’d be shocked.

Take a Xanax.

Who said contusion? Source?

They said he'd be out for a little while. How he reacted after the hit seemed to indicate that he got cut.

And you don't know who I am so please don't assume anything about me before actually knowing me.

 

[Stimpythecat]

Just hoping for the best.

I said contusion. I’m the source. As much as your “I was hurt for 20 days/weeks/years so this is going to happen to Jeff” source. Hell, your response was based off of my theory lol Even if I’m wrong, you played ball.

And where did I say I knew you? If I knew you I’d probably love you. I’m sure you’re a swell dude. Hell, you're a Kings fan.

Look, I’m sorry for being an arse. My wife divorced me for it.

Let’s share a whiskey and move on

Plus, we have a Ducks fan in here. We need to attack him!

I think we need to wait and see, Cruel.

It’s never good when one of our Boys leaves the game, but let’s be patient, my man

 

[KingTrouty]

Right on!

Your avatar was a fantastic film.

If you watch the video Petry's skate hit him in the calf/high ankle, might be a hairline fracture of some kind.. If so could be a few weeks I suppose..

Team responded well tonight after Carts left the game. Next man up.

 

[kingsfan28]

Hey Mike..wake up were on! "Uh, I don't want to rain on the parade, but I will rain on the parade."

Quick quietly played a real solid game. He kept us in it until the Kings started converting on their scoring chances. This game could have easily gone the other way if he didn't bail us out a few times.

I've always believed that the shot limiting style the Kings played under Sutter hurt Quick's save percentage. Now that he's facing more shot volume his SV% will likely go up.

Oh man, a fracture and all bets are off. That’s a couple months.

Look at us, all of us doctors

 

[regulate]

I was at the game, though he might have been cut by the opponents skate, but I'm not sure.

I predicted Quick would win the Vezina last year on this board, he, then, shortly after my proclamation, was out for 3/4 of the season.

With our new style, you’re dang right. His numbers will be, probably, his best ever (minus the strike season).

We’ve had so many wonderful posters illustrate how numbers for goalies are better when they face more shots. Quick has always been better when he gets active quick (no pun), and stays active.

I want to say a Vezina year, but I won’t. I’m biting my fist.

Oh for sure. His save pct is very skewd over the years because of the low shots against . If he saves 30 plus a night like many teams, his numbers would be much higher.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

plus he's not a percentage butterfly goalie, he thrives on staying warm, staying in the action, staying emotionally engaged. that possession style was almost completely predictive on when we'd get scored on next

 

[KingsFan7824]

Always amazed that skate blade injuries aren't more common.

 

[CTKingsFan]

Welp....

Agree that Jon Quick was the 2nd star last night, even though it felt great as a Kings fan to see Squid grab 4 pts. I remember being excited when the Kings drafted him in the second round, especially since they got the pick by getting rid of Aki Berg.

I always thought he was treated unfairly in his arbitration dispute by Lombardi. Looking back, I think how the Kings handled MC was a great example of bad asset management all the way to the end where he ended being traded for a 1st round bust, Colton Teubert.

It was pretty shocking to see the Kings blow the game open in the third, really felt that it came out of nowhere. Didn’t seem like they were getting sequences of shifts with sustained pressure. And with the loss of Carter and the Kopitar line match up on Drouin, line combos were all over the place. When Kempe scored to get the lead, it felt like they finally put the puck in the net after the tenth outnumbered attack, but it was impossible to see where the puck went in.

Will be interested to watch practice lines the next couple of days. Finding a replacement for Carter should be interesting, assuming he travels with the team. I’m hoping they give Dowd a look between Pears/Toff in a game.

Iafallo Kopitar Brown
Pearson Dowd Toffoli
Cammilleri Kempe Lewis
Brodzinski Shore Auger
Andreoff Amadio

 

[Omni Owl]

f*** that's awful news about Carter :[

Stoked about Kempe's hat trick, as well as Cammy's strong play. Hope those boys can pick up some of the slack. I wouldn't worry too much about Milbury, the dude is an irrelevant f*** head.

 

[kovacro]

Next man up with Carter out.

I continue to be impressed with Iafallo.

Very solid start to the season.

The Habs are trash. Bergevin has made a mess there. Way to go Marc.

Do you play a doctor on tv?

Kings F Carter out multiple weeks

According to TSN Hockey Insider Bob McKenzie, Carter's left leg was cut by Petry's skate blade.
