he's the new tevor Lewis.

Ah, when Lewis would beat out an icing, go around the net, and throw it into the goalie's crest.

 

[Dexter Sinister]

he's the new tevor Lewis.

Can we get rid of the older, more expensive original, please

 

[riznat]

Most boring game of the year?

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Rough night for MacDermid.

 

[tny760]

Rough night for MacDermid.

i'm not going after the depth guys tonight, no one in the top 6 has delivered a f***in thing either and they have to

 

[Bandit]

Rough night for MacDermid.

Rough night for my liver.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Look at that beautiful breakout, with no passing options.

 

[tny760]

nice of doughty to not even try and keep that puck in the zone

lot of passengers on this team right now

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The leadership on this team f***ing sucks.

 

[kingsfan28]

And the suck continues on the road with a giant thud!

 

[kingsboy11]

Crap game overall. They weren't engaged at all

 

[kingsfan28]

Most boring game of the year?

yep, by both. this game reminded me of a wild game. special team won and lost this game

 

[KingsFan7824]

2-8-1 on the road, and have given up at least 3 goals in 10 of the 11 games. Can't win many of those games when you barely average 2 GF in those same 11 games. Oh well, back to 29th.

 

[kingsfan28]

My god we look so slow on the pp compared to arizona. It's like our passes are in slow motion and we seem to telegram every shot. Just crap!

After watching that, I decided I want to see some good, live hockey. I live 6 miles South of Pepsi Center...time to go to my first Avs game of the year and see Makar and MacKinnon up close...see what hockey can look like. Not that I will ever be an AVS fan...but I am a fan of good hockey too! I take in the 1-2 King games here and about 2-3 other Avs games during the year....last year I was in row 8 and was amazing watching MacKinnon, Rantanen and Landeskog up close. Elite level Power, speed, skill, and ability to finish.

Gettin reaaaaaaal sick of hearing about 'fatigue' and associated shit given no other teams seem to have a problem kicking the everliving shit out of us no matter how far they've had to travel to play x games in x nights.

I go back to my complaint about the strength and conditioning coach I guess but ultimately that's just one more excuse that has me furious because that's something each individual has more control over too.

Is there any department of the Kings that hasn't been fired in the last 5 years? If so they're fired.

 

[bouncesonly]

Wow, Arizona's 13-7-2? Beaten some good teams too. God dam Kings are.....oof.

 

[kingsfan28]

remember when Lizotte replaced Kempe on the pp, and it worked? Kempe looked like his usual lifeless self tonight once again.

The good news is, McLellan isn’t using it as an excuse either.

 

[kingsfan28]

The Cryotes were 1-26 on the pp coming into the game. You'd never know it the way they passed the puck around and found the seems to score.

 

[Steve Zissou]

After watching the replay, am I the only one that heard what sounds like a mix of a high pitched woman’s scream and howl howl every 20-30 seconds during game play!?!?

Holy shit so f***ing annoying.

...and no, I’m not describing our power play.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Being bad on the road is a hallmark bad team trait.

Wow, Arizona's 13-7-2? Beaten some good teams too. God dam Kings are.....oof.

They're a good team. No contenders, but should make the playoffs if this continues. They stood toe to toe with Washington in a pretty good game.

They didn't play well against Vegas, and then they had to leave their beds for 1 game on the road, before coming right back for the next week before Thanksgiving. Then they go on another 1 game trip, and then back home for 1 game, and then down the road for a game, then back home for a game, then 2 in Alberta, then back home for a game, then down the road for a game, then they make their way for 5 in the East. It could be fatigue, it could be a lack of talent for road games. Probably a combo. Maybe a little lack of motivation to really get into a game. Especially against the Coyotes, who are on the boring side, and the Kings don't have a agitator to get things going.

It could get ugly in the next week. Edm, Ari, SJ, and the NYI at home. 3 of the top 6 in GAA, and then SJ has basically owned the Kings in LA for the last few years. Other than that the Kings haven't been terrible at home, there's not much reason why they wouldn't lose all 4.
