Well we have a pretty good third line! That's the only positive I have right now

 

[YP44]

not hopeful for tonight.

 

[Lt Dan]

We need a few people to pull a He-man pregame

 

[Little Psycho]

How's our PK third with that D?

 

[kingsholygrail]

If the Kings pull off a win here, their record against the Knights this season will look pretty respectable unlike their record against the Sharks. lol

 

[Sol]

Remember when some of y'all looked forward to brenden Lemieux... Oof.

I’m a patient guy, but I really can’t wait for some of these experiments to end. There are some good stories like Lizotte, but man he just doesn’t produce. Being tenacious only gets you so far. Same thing with Wagner. It’s pretty much WYSIWYG with those guys, not a lot of room for growth from what we’ve seen. Grundstrom has also disappeared.

The most maddening thing about a rebuild for me isn’t the losing, it’s waiting for guys to develop and to push placeholders either down in the lineup or out of it.

The things that's most annoying about those guys is they WERE productive, frankly. And just utterly cratered.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

But re tonight

 

[ibleedkings]

And to think Todd doesn't give Anderson a shot over this guy is comical.

 

[Hellraising Senator]

Hey gents, just curious who starts in net for you guys tonight. Thanks!

If your expectations are for the 4th liners to "produce" you may have bigger problems elsewhere.

Probably Petersen, but maybe Quick.

I haven't seen Lemieux do anything yet. Nice tone setting for a new player.

 

[Hellraising Senator]

Probably Petersen, but maybe Quick.

Who do we want haha

Thanks!

The McLellan effect.

Petersen, but barely.

The McLellan effect.

I wonder when people will finally begin seeing through him.

Petersen, but barely.

Quick really fallen that far. I thought he looked decent recently with a bit left in his tank still?

 

[onlyalad]

I believe, I believe, it's silly, but I believe

 

[crassbonanza]

So, I wonder if the Kings really are trying to sneak Lias through the expansion draft. He looked good in his one recent NHL game and has been fairly dominant down in Ontario. Just seems weird that he isn't getting much of a look down the stretch.

Thanks!

If "we" is the Kings, then it doesn't matter.
If "we" is Vegas then... it also doesn't matter.

Kings will lose either way.

Unless he’s hurt and/0r hurting, GV has to be pissed he lost his 2C position to freaking Lizotte. Let’s hope he is and plays better to reclaim that spot. No good will come out with Lizotte as your 2C.

 

[LAKings88]

In that place where it’s hard to get excited for games. Not sure if I want them to win 6 in a row or lose 6 in a row.
