He hasn't been the same since coming back from injury.
personally i think he's been playing well, especially against the blues, he's just having a stinker tonight. he looked like he was out on his feet when he got hit behind the goal early tonight, might have something to do with it

reaves won't

someone posted on the main board yesterday after he was called the "heavyweight champ" that he was doing what heavyweight champs do, duck anyone who can beat them..

thought that was very apt

It's been said many times before Reeves played in the era where all the True heavies are long gone. He wouldn't be prancing around chess thumping like he's the sh** if he played in the heavyweight era. But it is what it is until he's taken out he's still the only heavy in the league.

People that hate on Iafallo really don't get what he brings to the team. He is the epitome of a non-sexy player who you need to get to the next level. Not everyone can be Kempe in terms of skills.

Kind of reminds me of Tyler Bertuzzi.
Not flashy but effective.
The question is, how much do you pay him when you know his numbers are inflated a bit due to first line/first PP unit minutes.

Dupuis made a career by being just that. Kings need someone like Iafallo. He actually helps Kopitar

i don't want to make the assumption but he doesn't exactly strike me as the type of dude that's gonna ask for the moon

maybe hit him with one of those toffoli contracts and see what happens

Bullshit, Roy was totally late in getting to his man.

Lol.

Brown put EVERYONE out of position. Roy took a stride to the pass then back to the slot just as it had been abandoned by a Vilardi, who was also left out to dry by the dumb turnover.

The only way Roy or Vilardi could have properly anticipated that play would be if they had assumed Brown was going to gift-wrap it like that, and nobody would because you just don't see that kind of stupidity very often. It took less than four seconds from the time the puck left Brown's stick until it was in the net. That is nowhere near enough time to process the dumb turnover, assess if you can get to the puck first, see where your support is, see where the opponents are, and make the proper read. There isn't a defenseman in the league that isn't hungout to dry by Brown there.

I just don’t care for Iafallo 3v3. I wouldn’t mind someone else getting a shot on the top line from time to time either, not because Iafallo sucks but just to see what someone else might do.

3 on 3 needs more AA, Wagner and Kempe.
Going with the old guard... reminds me of the Wings going with Zetterberg and kronwall when they couldn't skate with the kids in all that space.

We got this boys and girls. BigMac is to negate Reeves. I’m ok with that. Quick needs to get a full black glove. They wouldn’t of seen that.
