GDT: 2022-23 season game 40 LA Kings vs Philadelphia Flyers @1:00pm 12/31/22

my god that first unit powerplay is just so bad

 

[BigBrown]

Terrible special teams, despite the goal. The ref calling a tight game could be bad news for the Kings.

 

[kilowatt]

I don't think Grundstrom is long for this team. He's been much worse this year compared to last year.

Dang, that's some unflattering lighting

stecher, thompson, kovalchuk, leipsic, sheesh

those were "the days"

I am absolutely amazed this team is over .600 with: an atrocious pk, awful goaltending and horrible at clearing their zone. Hockey gods are certainly smiling on this team.

Eh, our offense has all indications of being sustainable though. We’re not on a shooting bender and our possession and xG metrics are strong. I think if anything the hockey gods are neutral because our goaltending was league-worst in terms of xGA.

funny that wasn't a penalty when it happened to a king in the 1st period

It's been a pretty fair game so far.

 

[Little Psycho]

Piss poor clearing

consistency is what i'm after, not fairness

 

[Mully12]

How nice of Durzi to just give the puck back to the Flyers instead of trying to clear the zone.

 

[kilowatt]

Why did Durzi just gently pass it five feet to a Flyers forward?

 

[Mully12]

This.

 

[ru4reals]

Sean Durzi should never kill penalties unfortunately we don't have any other guy.

Don’t forget Nikita f***ing Scherbak

 

[Mully12]

Roy making sure Quick was still awake.

We do though. We literally do. Play Bjornfot instead of Walker and we have three even left/right pairs.

Anderson - Doughty
Bjornfot - Durzi
Edler - Roy

Doesn't make any f***ing sense why we don't do this. Bjornfot has more NHL games played than Durzi!

 

[head eyes]

Doughty is so bad

 

[Mully12]

Nice break up by Mikey, good hustle by Byfield to get back.

 

[kilowatt]

Great backcheck there by Byfield!

 

[ru4reals]

Goodness sakes Drew.

 

[JTeller97]

Drew needs to pull his head out at some point

 

[Gjwrams]

Quick is just not very good anymore

 

[lumbergh]

Maybe Quick has to seal that hole.
