Ok so Arvy that looks to be still healing and not game ready stays in. That whole second line needs to wake up or at least a shake up. But they stay intact. Didn't GM Blake say Kaliyev should be in our top 6 this season?

Can you guys just ever chill the f*** out? Kaliyev was supposed to be scratched last game too -- pretty sure there were a couple 'fire TM'(s) being thrown about and then it turned out Kaliyev played.

The Kings have too many good players right now, guys are gonna sit here and there, deal with it.

They've been bad.

But remember Moore wasn't good for the first quarter of last season. Arvidsson has been injured and missed most of camp. Danault is Danault. He'll be fine.

Considering they were so good last year, they've earned a long leash. Only been 3 games.

I wouldn't mind seeing Grundstrom up there if VA needs more time. The problem with Kaliyev is that he's too slow.

ok, but why was Kaliyev meant to be scratched. How are Lemieux or Grundtrom better options?
I get LA has too many bodies vs roster spots right now, but Kaliyev brings something that LA was missing till Fiala and maybe still is. He has one of the, if the not the, best shots on the team, he is young with legit top 6 upside. I think you need to find ways to keep that guy in your lineup.

I think it is fair to question it if he comes out. Maybe not with a pitchfork in hand, but I do think it is fair to think WTF.

Ok, then you also have to question why Grundstom is sitting -- are we firing TM for that too? (Pretty sure that Grundstom was the golden child this past offseason)

Maybe Kaliyev has a minor injury? Maybe there's actually a legitimate reason that is not privy to the casual fan. (I know, shocker)

No doubt the line will get better but right now Arvy needs to get less minutes until he gets his legs back 100%. If Kaliyev can't crack the top 6 or even top 9, what happens next year when Fagemo gets his shot. We simply can't keep a potential 30 goal scorer playing with Lizotte every night.

Game Day! It's a 7:6 league.

Can't believe Todd is scratching the hot goalie with the better record for the veteran.
:naughty:

Looking forward to seeing Todd's adjustments to the Wild game.

I did question when grundstrom sat. When Arvidsosn missed the Seattle game it was Grundstrom who got the chance at a top 6 role, however then the next game he is the one sitting. That is too big a swing IMO. If he was playing good enough for top 6 than he should have a longer leash then going from that to scratch.

Yes you are right maybe there is an injury, but until that is reported asking why is a fair question. In fact a reporter asking why maybe what unveils the injury.

I do not understand your automatic defense or the fact you seem offended by people questioning things.

But we aren't asking why, are we? We are saying FIRE TM! Dumb...

Besides that, Arvidsson is not going to sit for Kaliyev or Grundstrom unless that line proves to not be effective anymore...and that conclusion is not going to be made after game 3. That was the best line this team had last year and they will get a long leash before it's broken up.

Let's have some common sense here, I know it hurts.

Kaliyev hasn't looked good so far this season, something is off. He could be dealing with something because he looked a step quicker in the preseason.

Not gonna write anything into it, guys need to get into the lineup so might as well do it when he's struggling a bit.

Oh, something is off alright. He was reduced from 12-15 minutes a game with lines 2/3 to 6-9 minutes a game with line 4.

This shit is getting old.

where did I say fire TM? No doubt Arvidsson is not going to sit for either of those two, who said he should? Why are you making up arguments that do not exist?

My common sense is that when someone posts "FIRE TM" they are exaggerating as it is only 3 games in. Maybe take your own advice.

Kaliyev has looked fine, considering he has averaged 9 minutes of time per game.
