We won so it can't

Win = 3 - 5.
Loss = 18 - ∞.

 

[Puck In IxxI]

Great to see the boyz grit one out.

 

[KingKopitar11*]

I am happy, but not holding my breath. I wanna see if they can string some wins together and get a positive boost going into the break.

Ditto

Winning is less fun for complaining and speculation

So Kopitar won't be traded now?

 

[Herby]

I am here win/loss or shootout loss but you guys have to be ridiculous to think that wins are going to be as busy as losses. The Sharks board is busier right now than it would be if they won 2-1.

 

[HYORI 1963]

So, if we keep winning, does this mean no more trade(s)?

KFC off the table?

Not for now

But what will we do without that washed up 3rd liner or mid round pick we would get for him?

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Holy crap guys, we won a game 1-0, lets not go making snarky comments about how little traffic this thread will have. I'm very glad to have won the game (posted so in this thread earlier), but there isn't a whole lot to take away from one game like this (let alone a game where a struggling offensive team only scored one goal)

You're assuming KFC was the only one in the deal. I'm thinking he was one of the piece to a bigger deal.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Not for now

He better sleep with one eye open. Next game he doesn't score he's being sent to Edmonton for Perron and a 5th. That should address our left wing woes.

And then waive fraser

Well I would think so, anyone who has seen him play this season would agree he isn't bringing anything more than an older player or a draft pick. Or maybe a struggling young player for another struggling young player swap. As for a potential Moulson trade, depends on who the other player is, I could live with Clifford and Vey, but not much more.

 

[AKAY47]

Wait, so Mike Richards and Tanner Pearson for Roman Josi isn't happening anymore??????

Hopefully we do make trades. Unless we expect to shut out our opponent every game, and have Sharks didn't have couture, and Hertl.

I'm really happy with the points just not of our whole game. I'm not trying to be a downer, just realistic.

Kyle Clifford has been the same exact player since his rookie season. I haven't seen any improvement whatsoever. Like you watched him play in his rookie year and you'd get excited because of how much potential he's got, but couple years later you realize that he's the exact same player. Kind of upsetting.

And then the posts that follow which read - "Useless Dean, he could have at least got a 7th or future considerations "

I know we won, but I'm still unhappy with Toffoli playing 4RW.

C'mon Sutter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the kid too but honestly you have to admit he did jack **** tonight. He won't budge from the fourth line until he plays like his heart is in it. It wasn't there tonight.

 

[KingKopitar11*]

That'd be a good deal. Excerpt Richards and 2nd

 

[Ron*]

We won the game but overall anyone else not happy with the game. I miss the intensity this team had

Not sure what game you were watching. Couldn't have been Kings / Sharks because this game was very intense, from beginning to end.

And the Kings were playing like they really enjoy playing indoor games.

Jack ****? What do you expect from him playing with Colin Fraser and Jordan Nolan? Tyler Toffoli is not a bottom 6 player, Sutter just dislikes him, or something. I really don't understand why he's got it out for him, kid has so much talent and a huge upside. He's wasting his talents on a line with Fraser and Nolan.

I thought when Clifford first came up he was going to be the type of guy who would be appreciated by fans of skill like myself and fans of the tough side like Johnny Utah. I thought watching Clifford in the 2011 playoffs that he was going to be destined for a really solid career as a guy who added toughness to a 2nd line or even someone who would do the small things playing with stars (like King does with Kopi and Carter), but it just never happened. And sadly I think the Kings waited to long to deal him, had he been dealt this summer he still had value.

Is KFC our new name for Clifford?
