Saved all their energy for the Jets. I guess. Hopefully. Other than one good hit, and a garbage time goal, not sure what the point was for this game.

Luff and Wagner not looking like top line guys should be expected. A 4th round pick, and an undrafted free agent out of junior. Not a ton of talent anywhere near where Wagner was picked either. Unless you get very lucky, even a 4th line guy in the 4th round is pretty good.
I agree and players like that have a place, although we have too many of them. But my point was, badly made, is that by playing them we learn and gain little. Whereas with Prokhorkin he brings something a little different and I think we have a way to go before we really understand what we have in him. We need players in our bottom 6 that chip in and I want to find out if he can be one of them.

Completely forgot there was a game today.

Guess the Kings did too.


just got home expecting to watch an evening game

guess the kings did too

burn the tapes eh

Glad to see Tmac reject the schedule bullshit though, this team isn't very good but they can't be pardoned for playing on the road or back to back as if other teams don't, they get utterly cratered on the road. I'd calculate the goal differentials but i'm lazy. But I'm sure it's appalling.

Wow, also crazy to see we have good enough home record to be a mid-playoff team, but a road record to be the lottery winner.

If you missed the game. They didnt play that bad. Failed to convert on some chances especially in the beginning of the 2nd. Couple bad plays on two of the goals against and a couple quick could have had. Very winnable game they squandered on a couple breakdowns and failure to finish.

Thanks for doing that. It's about as awful as I imagined, heh.

yeah, the road record is a head scratcher. only 3 wins, and given up a shit ton of goals in each loss. SJ had 3 goals on 6 shots while the Kings did just about everything right...but score. strange game at times.

Can somebody research the goals for when Lewis is in the lineup? It seems like when Lewis is in the lineup the offense goes away faster than a scoring chance on his dead stick.

it shouldn't have been ANY penalty. - unless the NHL is now a non-checking league

yeah, there wasn't even a second between when his stick touched the puck and hit. Lame call. Glad they didn't call the major.

also what was missed was Quick and Sorenson fighting in the crease. The ref just let him interfere with Quick the entire time.

The whiny Sharks fans want another phantom five-minute major penalty, just like in the playoffs.
Sharks fan just here to say that I personally was pleased that MacDermid's match penalty major was reduced. He didn't deserve a major for that hit. That's the new Cody Eakin rule in action, and it worked as it was intended, IMHO. Take this as you may.

Also, Kopitar is still really good.

Outscored only 49-24 on the road if you don't count EN goals. Technically better.

46 GF
68 GA

Without Lewis(8 games):

With Lewis, no Kovalchuk(2 games):

Forbort played a pretty decent game in Ontario last night. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him in the lineup Monday night against the quacks.
