Pre-Game Talk: Kings in Ottawa, Tues. 7:30 pm on TSN/RDS

[2CHAINZ]

I don't think his survival instincts will ever be tamed.

He is like some kind of bear with a camel head. Primal and loyal.

Ya but I think that's just who he is as a person. I doubt he has any paranoia about losing his spot.

You seem quite certain.

Are you...Mark Borowiecki?

 

[bert]

You're focusing way too much on standings in less than 10 games. They are not a top team in the league.

Also people saying "wrong" - show some respect and not post arrogant things like that.

Perhaps if your hot takes werent so frequent and innacurate you won't get those types of responses.

 

[Alex1234]

I don't think anything that happened 3+ years ago matters for any team. That's a long time.

Well then what team do you consider the top teams in the league considering results only from the past 2-3 years?

 

[FormentonTheFuture]

Well then what team do you consider the top teams in the league considering results only from the past 2-3 years?

Sorry what?

 

[Alex1234]

Sorry what?

Judging by the last 2 seasons since 3+ don't matter
Wish are the teams you consider top team in the league?

 

[BondraTime]

Kings are without a doubt a top team.

The new system really seems to have rejuvenated some of their guys, Brown especially. The Carter injury hurts for sure.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

He's already suggested as much

Of course , you wouldn't want to practice with the lines you might use before the game, especially when you have guys playing with other guys they never played with before

 

[FormentonTheFuture]

I consider Pittsburgh, Washington, Ottawa, Toronto, Tampa, Nashville, Minnesota some of the top teams right now

 

[Back in Black]

27 1/2 hours to g0.

 

[Alex1234]

GO KINGS GO






just for tonight though

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I think the Kings are still a good team.. obviously better with Carter in the lineup. They are not an easy out for anyone

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

I think this will be our let down game but we pull out both wins on the back to back.

 

[2CHAINZ]

You seem quite certain.

Are you...Mark Borowiecki?

You seem like you want me I mean Mark to lose his spot.

Are you ... Ben Harpur?

 

[NyQuil]

You seem like you want me I mean Mark to lose his spot.

Are you ... Ben Harpur?

That handsome, talented and articulate devil?

Hardly.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

 

[Shruggs Peterson]

Has it been said who will fill Bobby's wing on the Brass-Stone line?

 

[playasRus]

Has it been said who will fill Bobby's wing on the Brass-Stone line?

Burrows apparently.

 

[Cosmix]

Burrows apparently.

With Burrows in for Ryan, I expect the scoring will drop for the Brass Line.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

With Burrows in for Ryan, I expect the scoring will drop for the Brass Line.

Its probably debatable in certain circles but if I understand you correctly , you are saying Ryan is better offensively than Burrows.

 

[NyQuil]

They have some speedy guys in Kempe, Toffoli and Iafollo.

 

[FormentonTheFuture]

They have some speedy guys in Kempe, Toffoli and Iafollo.

Toffoli is slow

 

[NyQuil]

Toffoli is slow

Looked pretty good tonight.

In the first scrimmage game on Monday, Team White changed their defensive assignments late in the first half. Muzzin was now assigned the primary responsibility of covering the speedy Toffoli.

While both players do their damage in different locations on the ice (Schenn prefers to get dirty in front, while Toffoli likes to work his way on net with speed from the outside), each had a resounding effect on their team’s success.

They also have two young players who added speed and excitement, as if a 26-game march topped off with a Stanley Cup-clinching double-overtime victory didn't provide enough.
Tyler Toffoli, 22, and Tanner Pearson, 21, formed a wildly successful line with the veteran Carter, all of them wearing a jersey number in the 70s.

The signing of Toffoli is an important one for the Kings, especially with their apparent interest in switching to a more up-tempo and high-scoring style of play in the coming years.

I watched a lot of him at the World Championships - seemed speedy enough to me.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

The have a good combination of size and speed ... Toffoli has a dangerous shot , Kopitar, Brown, Lewis are all smart big possession players that are very effective; Kempe and Iafallo can skate. They have a good lineup.They are on a back to back .. hope it works out for us , cuz the Sens are pretty depleted up front.

It would be nice to put a couple PP goals in.
