You can’t lose games at home to weaker teams! Come on!

Yes, you can if you have inferior goalie

 

[Seattle King]

One-eighth of our cap is tied up in two goalies who cannot handle play at the NHL level.
The nobody signed as an afterthought for AHL depth is now entirely entrusted with the rest of our season.
Insert Blake criticism here.

 

[fsanford]

Saturday afternoon curse exists has for years. Have sat at the arena for loss after loss

splaaaaaash

 

[kilowatt]

Well, that's that lol

Nice embellishment from DeAngelo there though, dude's such a clown

Apparently you’re just ungrateful and Blake is playing 5D chess

 

[Seattle King]

Kopitar skates like a corpse

 

[EmuRidingLuffy]

Fox talking about TM taking time outs. Nice jokes.

Not today only…

 

[tny760]

it's gotta be so disheartening being on a man advantage just to look up and see 5 teammates standing stone still on the perimeter of the o zone

 

[kingsboy11]

f***ing garbage game

 

[Little Psycho]

Played like dumbasses the whole game. That’s what you get

 

[kilowatt]

Durzi takes out the ref, the ref gets revenge

 

[The Butcher]

Merry new year kings

 

[Gjwrams]

Another lackluster day game performance with an old used-up goalie

 

[BigBrown]

Needed a couple of saves there, but 2 goals ain't cutting it either way.

 

[funky]

What did we expect. Goalie with a couple of games under his belt and our guys must’ve started drinking early.

 

[RocketKing]

What a real POS game. Complete shit effort really exposing our worst deficiencies

 

[Moses Doughty]

Flyers aren't a good team, but apparently these guys thought you could win while providing no effort

 

[YAYSAY]

Leave it to the Kings to make Ristolainen, the worst player in the NHL, look good

 

[unicornpig]

Quick had been given lesser opponents in Arizona and Philly and he loses both

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Fitting loss for the last game of the year. Horrible special teams and goaltending. Failing to beat a team lower in the standings. Just giving away points.

No amount of flukey shootout or overtime wins will cover the warts on this team.

There was effort just quick was awful

 

[RocketKing]

Durzi takes out the ref, the ref gets revenge

Sure the ref got tangled up, but that pos effort to get back and defend is completely unacceptable. This dude is pure trash

 

[King'sPawn]

Disappointing end to a bad game.

Even though he didn't get on the scoresheet, Byfield looked good on Kopitar's line.

Durzi is such a dumpster fire defensively and Fiala is also an issue - however, he's still better offensively and defensively than Durzi. I will never understand why Durzi is out on the PK. THAT'S an example of dialing back on responsibility when someone struggles.

Quick had a particularly awful game. Only the first shot is defensible.
