GDT: 2019-20 GM#13 LA Kings vs Vancouver Canucks @7:30pm 10/30/19

Manna from heaven! Kempe finally gets one.

 

[KingsOfCali25]

We need Iafallo off the top PP unit. He looked lost out there the short amount of time.

I'd like to see Lewis and one of Iafallo/Lizotte benched for Toffoli and Amadio

 

[DryIslandBartender]

Dean Lombardi coaching the canucks?

No way.

 

[Bandit]

Figures. Hit the pipe, get scored on.

 

[tny760]

ez -1 for kopi coming off the bench

woof

 

[kingsholygrail]

Martinez didn't do the right thing if they were going for a change. Can't rim it all the way around to the opponent. Basically a turnover.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Terrible line change.

 

[Bandit]

Markstrom looks shaky but we have nobody that can score.

 

[Telos]

Martinez pinched, Kempe changed instead of backing up Martinez, and then Doughty called out for someone in that area to cover and there was no one there.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Did Kovalchuk dump Horvat?

Yup.

 

[kilowatt]

Terrible line change.

Kempe

I don’t think he knew it was happening tbh.

i didn't account for kempe changing, that sounds like the problem there

not happy about the limp dick shot by martinez though, if you're gonna pinch you gotta do more with it than that

 

[kingsholygrail]

Just goes to lack of communication.

 

[tny760]

canucks sweep around so aggressively on the blue line, defensemen and forwards

kings just can't keep up with the rotations

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Am I the only one unimpressed with Wagner’s overall game?

 

[tny760]

Am I the only one unimpressed with Wagner’s game?

i mean, he's one of many on this team that seem to have talent of some form but can't translate it into production

 

[TheSentinel]

Yes, I'm more unimpressed with Kempe's game than Wagner's

 

[tny760]

3-2 going between the legs

zero respect for the kings but they've done nothing to earn it

 

[Bandit]

Man. All of a sudden it seems Vancouver has an exciting young team. How did that happen?

 

[kilowatt]

pretty weak call

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Yes, I'm more unimpressed with Kempe's game than Wagner's

This is correct.

 

[kilowatt]

Man. All of a sudden it seems Vancouver has an exciting young team. How did that happen?

they spent a couple years sucking, hit on some draft picks, and let bad contracts expire

hmm...

 

[KingsOfCali25]

No way.

To what?

Iafallo off the PP? He needs to be off! Grundstrum, Kovy, Prokhorkin, Carter, Toffoli would be better. Especially when you have him and Brown on the same PP, which do the same thing.

Benching Iafallo? Why not? He is just as bad as Toffoli scoring wise (actually worse) and he has been on the 1st line almost every game.

Benching Lizotte? Why not? Yes, he brings energy but nothing else. He is not producing so bench him to give him some rest and reset his confidence. He is young and probably needs a boost.

Bench Lewis? Should've happened awhile ago.

I'd rather see Amadio over Lizotte or Iafallo. And definitely Toffoli over Lewis or Iafallo.
