GDT: 2020-21 season game 53 LA kings vs Colorado Avalanche @7:00pm 5/8/21

[Bandit]

“You did everything”

except execute.

 

[Bandit]

The Avs have 3 D on IR and are still clowning us. That should tell you all you need to know about the gap between these two teams.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Vilardi is the only source of offense in the last couple of games.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Nice pass by Vilardi. Good finish by Walker.

 

[Bandit]

Nice Vilardi. Finish strong.

 

[kingsboy11]

Vilardi has been fantastic the past couple of games, another great individual play

 

[Bandit]

Good finish by Walker too. From the skate to the stick to the back of the net.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Great to see Vilardi start to drive offense. I hope his ice time goes up. He’s played less than 15 minutes the past couple games.

 

[King'sPawn]

Vilardi, while not a great skater, can think so fast. He should be able to excel from that alone.

Nice goal by Walker. The drfense needs to be a better threat to open things up for the forwards.

 

[Lt Dan]

Walker has been much better without the cage.
We just need a Willie Mitchell or Regehr and Maata gone and I like our D

 

[Bandit]

Kupari is a 4th liner if we’re lucky.

 

[King'sPawn]

Such a smart play by Doughty to lead the attack as soon as the stick broke, recognizing the opposition's weakness. That IQ is such an understated element to his game even after all these years.

 

[kingsboy11]

Well they got better by the end of the period, but we still suck

 

[LAKings88]

Kupari is a 4th liner if we’re lucky.

Really small sample size but I haven’t seen much. Seems like a guy who needs top six not bottom six wingers.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Great pick up of the puck from skate to stick(skill) move and score!

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Pretty sure the Avs could put a pylon in goal and still win against us

I think that's the problem with the League...teams can put their 3rd-4th "string" goaltenders and not miss a beat...4 on 4 baby...sometimes wish there was a lot of money out there to shake up the NHL with another Rival Major League ala WHA all those years (42-49) ago!

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Really small sample size but I haven’t seen much. Seems like a guy who needs top six not bottom six wingers.

Kupari is just 20 right? He'll be fine,the guy can skate and is a playmaker! In a years time the Kings will nuzzle him over to Kopi's RWing!

 

[Bandit]

Petersen’s body language on that second goal is hot garbage.

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

The Avs have 3 D on IR and are still clowning us. That should tell you all you need to know about the gap between these two teams.

The only one that is any good is Samuel Girard! EJ is done...and young Byram is finding his game and will eventually be very good but's only 19 turning 20

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Walker has been much better without the cage.
We just need a Willie Mitchell or Regehr and Maata gone and I like our D

Who do we replace Maatta with...Clague,Wolanin?

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

I think the Avalanche broadcaster compared Cale Maker with Bobby Orr(legend)...Makes me want to listen to Kings TV Duo

 

[Bandit]

Vilardi line continues to be the best

 

[Ray Martyniuk]

Then the Colorado broadcaster talked about D-man MacDonald and said Calder in the same sentence,OMFG please shut up

 

[kingsboy11]

Kings playing a much more controlled game than they did last night. Not dominating by any means, but they're not just rolling over and dying like usual. Keep sending Vilardi's line out there
