TSN: Dominant Kings looking like Cup contenders again

[Raccoon Jesus]

Absolute tops by a good margin in CF%, 25th in PDO. 5.64% shooting, 28th in league. Something's gotta give.

Still trending up.

You're doing God's work, RP.

You're Yedoing God's work, RP.

Yes he is, making us all laugh. It's a real gift to us.

RP should be given a lifetime "Get Avatar Out of Jail Free" card.

I like where this thread is going.

You win the whole ****ing universe. Well done.

Never has there been a more accurate depiction of what the Kings and Blackhawks do to their proclaimed rivals come playoff time.

Agreed. But I think we overemphasize the inefficiency around here; say what you want about the low shooting %, the fact is the time we spend on offense is tiring for the other team. Think of how often, even in the last couple of crappy games, the opposing team only got a chance to cross the red line, dump, and change vs. really set up shop. It's built to wear down an opponent and THAT is why we're effective in the playoffs, we're not winning on sheer talent alone

Last night, I can only think of a couple of shifts where the Sens set up shop. All their offense came from bad turnovers, not sustained pressure.

I originally thought the thread was titled "Dormant Kings" lol!

God ****ing damnit this article is the kiss of death. **** you TSN.

Nah, all it will take is MTL to win two in a row and the Kings are forgotten, which is fine by me. Let's just keep quietly winning our division and let the east get a the press.

You guys are welcome.

You should put little arms on the NHL logo reaching for the cup.

You should put little arms on the NHL logo reaching for the cup.

****. Hadn't thought of that, but I originally was planning to have the logos of the losing Stanley Cup finalists in both years being smacked back down by a free arm from the Hawk/King guy while the other arm was ready to throw the Cup like a football.

The Sens were pretty solid on the forecheck, so some of those turnovers came as a result of that pressure without the puck. They targeted Doughty, and the other d-men were off too. When you get 5 goals on just 21 shots, you don't really have to do too much more.
