East side money for the win.Fans support winners. But there is no reason, except maybe price, to not fill that little arena.
He’s been an excellent fourth line grinder type. But he’s got a multi year, multi million deal. So he needs to step up offense.Is Alex Kerfoot going to provide anything or just collect a pay cheque?
Sanford was terrible. A turnover, penalty and mostly just looking lost and scared.You’d play Sanford over Carcone?
AT also had the flu. There was a question pre game if he was going to be in or not. We had two played out of the lineup with the flu. Doesn’t meant there weren’t a lot of sick guys.I must agree that AT was outcoached last night. In post game interview, he had no answer to why no pushback. Either he is protecting players too much or he truly didn't have an answer. I hope the former. Regardless, I look forward to how they respond. We could get smoked by Chicago too if we play them the same way.
Right now, Bedard is a much better player than Cooley, despite similar points. Bedard will be a handful on Monday. I don't think Cooley will be.
I don't know that I would call Keller a league wide super star. He's a fantastic hockey player and absolutely is a star in AZ, but I can't say the same across the league. Even if you do, LA has one of the best defenseman and centers of the last 15 years, we don't even have one of the best wingers of the last 5. That's a huge difference.Keller
Kings came out in the second looking like the buzz saw that was the 2012 Kings playoff team and the Yotes looked like a deer in the headlights.

I knew the game was over and the Kings were winning when Doughty scored that 2nd goal.Kings came out in the second looking like the buzz saw that was the 2012 Kings playoff team and the Yotes looked like a deer in the headlights.
I think we all knew the Coyote's were not a playoff team this year. I didn't think the Kings were that good, and if they can find a good goalie they could make some noise.Pains me to say it, but the Kings are good. Lead NHL in goals/gm.
Yotes need more time for the rebuild plan to mature.
Don't say we all! I still believe in this team!I think we all knew the Coyote's were not a playoff team this year. I didn't think the Kings were that good, and if they can find a good goalie they could make some noise.
That’ll happen when the Yotes let you put up 11g in three days and you’ve only played five other games. Lol.Pains me to say it, but the Kings are good. Lead NHL in goals/gm.

Also for some reason Cooley was benched for most of the thirdAgree with everything you said here. Although I don't think he played bad, you have to take Hayton off that first line, even if it's to shuffle lines for a game. Your #1C has to be better. You have to give Cooley line mates that have talent who can play with him. AT was outcoached last night to put it simple. He did nothing to get the team going. Can Cooley or Maccelli show Hayton how to use his edges. Hayton is a big boy, start throwing your weight around. Mind you that is hard when you are always on your ass. The Kings really played Keller and Schmaltz tough. Hope the team and coach learn from this game. It was hopefully a learning experience.
We have to be better than that this and next year
Brown as well , no look pass up the boards to the Kings player, ended up in a goal , then a pass right to the front of the net , ended up in a goalHe’s been an excellent fourth line grinder type. But he’s got a multi year, multi million deal. So he needs to step up offense.
Sanford was terrible. A turnover, penalty and mostly just looking lost and scared.
Yeah Cooley is not quite like he was pre season , only PP assists so far.I must agree that AT was outcoached last night. In post game interview, he had no answer to why no pushback. Either he is protecting players too much or he truly didn't have an answer. I hope the former. Regardless, I look forward to how they respond.

The Kings forecheck was, like you said overwhelming, but come on, Bear could have tried something, like even shuffle the lines, take a time out to try and settle the troops. The Kings beat us in every aspect of the game, and that included coaching.I don’t know how to impress upon y’all just how overwhelming the King’s forecheck was….. I mean, if you didn’t see it, I guess you didn’t see it. It wasn’t coaching, I reckon Bear didn’t want to say the boys had just met up with more than they can handle at this point.
I think you are a year ahead of yourself. One Bobby Orr wouldn't be enough at this point.Don't say we all! I still believe in this team!
We are too close to the playoffs not to think about getting over the bubble. And it's not just the Coyotes' roster has improved, but also other teams that are trending in the wrong direction (and I would argue that is a stronger arguement than the improve offense). 1 good blueliner could be the difference...
Yep, Bear got out coached in that game for sure...but if they can only have a handful of stinkers in the season, I'm ok with that.The Kings forecheck was, like you said overwhelming, but come on, Bear could have tried something, like even shuffle the lines, take a time out to try and settle the troops.

We all learn from our mistakes, it's how we respond from the mistakes is the real question. I think Bear is too smart a coach not to turn that game into a positive for him and the players.Yep, Bear got out coached in that game for sure...but if they can only have a handful of stinkers in the season, I'm ok with that.
Sometimes it’s best in the long run to let the boys pull themselves up by the boot straps, or end up reflecting on what happened. I’ll concede a time out could have been of some help, but never been big on line juggling.
And there you have it!We all learn from our mistakes, it's how we respond from the mistakes is the real question. I think Bear is too smart a coach not to turn that game into a positive for him and the players.
I believe Bobby Orr is retired.I think you are a year ahead of yourself. One Bobby Orr wouldn't be enough at this point.
