The most embarrassing regular season loss yet under this regime, and the most embarrassing that I can remember in my angered state.
- The team picked it up in the third. However...
- Matt Frattin is an awful hockey player. Which scout told DL to pick this guy up? He doesn't fight through checks, can't shoot, can't control passes, can't make passes. He's the worst forward on this team, at least we know Fraser will mix it up and put us in beneficial 4 on 4 situations, but Frattin does absolutely nothing.
- Kopitar had to score on that penalty shot. Guy is paid to score and shoots a garbage shot right at Hiller. Things may have turned out differently had he scored.
- The Kings have to stop shooting from all areas. The selective shot mentality is disturbing. It's alright to shoot from the point, but not the slot? It's alright to delay slap shots from the point until guys clog shooting lanes? It's alright to shoot from the goal-line, but not the faceoff dot?
The Kings are going nowhere fast. The most explosive player on the team is a right winger who Sutter continues to want to place on the second line. The highest paid guys on the team are playing like bums. Our two centers, creating nothing, having minimal impact.
Anaheim are a better team than the Kings too. Makes it worse.
