[fieldset=COACH & PLAYER QUOTES]

"Shakes head, and declines to comment."

"I think it's going to be good for us to kind of get away for a couple days on the road."

"How ‘bout that ****ING game huh ?"

"Giving up that many goals is very uncharacteristic and we need to watch video and figure it out. The power play's been pretty good the last couple of games, that's one of our strong points."

"He said something, but no one could understand what it was ?"

[shadow=Silver] LET'S GO KINGS !!! [/shadow]

- UPCOMING SCHEDULE -

NOTE : Regarding LARGE SIZE IMAGES / YELLOW RE-SIZE IMAGE BARS ABOVE PICS, let me offer up one nice little suggestion ...
This will get rid of those pesky yellow resize bars over the top of some larger pictures ... as they annoy the hell out of me and maybe they do you also ?
- Go into/click on your "USER CP" {control Panel} up top left in the red bars
- on the left under 'Settings & Options' click on "Edit Options"
- scroll down to 'Thread Display Options', and then 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- click on the 'Drop Down List Box' over on the Right of 'Please Select the Resize Mode'
- select it to "KEEP ORIGINAL SIZE"
- SAVE your selections !
There ... now don't that look MUCH BETTER

[Shellz]

I care! and yes, I will be watching GO KINGS !!

 

[Sydor25]

Who cares ?

Anyone bother watching ?

Go Kings ?

WE got a CUP ?

Axl Rhoadz is right ... we're PATHETIC !


... just kidding, it'll be up in a few more minutes

I'm only watching to see Jack Johnson play.

 

[hossua34]

Conflicted.

 

[Telos]

Not going to be an easy win. Need the veterans to step up. I'm confident we can pull it off though. GO KINGS!

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

Must win?

Technically, of course not. But for overall team morale, hell yeah this is a must win.

 

[SuperAlmeida]

Fight to the end!

Sutterism: "Bring it or watch!"

Keep believing!

Let's go Kings!

#WAKEUPCALL

 

[Captain Mittens*]

The Kings have had a problem with the Blue Jackets since their inception

Especially the day that Jamie Storr donned the Elvis mask

 

[bobafettish*]

i have a feeling JJ is gonna run somone.

go kings!

 

[MsMeow]

So happy to see an early game but I can only watch the first 2 periods. Hopefully Mason is in net for Columbus. Is this Carter's first trip back to Columbus?

 

[Butch 19]

Let's get this thing going tonight!!

GKG!

Kings 5-1

 

[SCARFACE909]

So happy to see an early game but I can only watch the first 2 periods. Hopefully Mason is in net for Columbus. Is this Carter's first trip back to Columbus?

No, happened last season, though JJ hasn't had his first trip back to Staples yet.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

 

[kingsholygrail]

I want the Kings to blow them out.

 

[Muzzinga]

I remember last year, that game we lost vs these, which was JJ's first time playing us, was when i lost hope on the season.

Only fitting that the same thing happens tonight, then we go on a tear from here

 

[cheap77]

So happy to see an early game but I can only watch the first 2 periods. Hopefully Mason is in net for Columbus. Is this Carter's first trip back to Columbus?

Nope. I only remember it because I was at the game and was quite disappointed. Kopi had a really nice goal though. Then I went to Detroit the next night to watch LA lose 4-3 in regulation bu giving up the two goals in the last couple minutes.

 

[topliner967]

Win!

 

[King RAZZ]

Let's keep Jack "Minus Forever" Johnson a minus tonight...

 

[King RAZZ]

Did DS unintentionally tell Penner to go to IHOP and injure himself by scratching him today???

 

[Butch 19]

I'd like to see Bernier get the start tonight. He needs to get some full games under his belt - Quick can't start 42 games.

But.... it likely won't happen.

 

[Little Psycho]

Jackets Gdt is dedicated to Carts. That's nice.

GO KINGS!

 

[KingKopitar11*]

Can we please not play like **** for one game.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

If we lose, it's going to get UGLY around here. With that said, I hope Carter pots five on these guys

 

[Hatter]

If we lose, it's going to get UGLY around here. With that said, I hope Carter pots five on these guys

It's positively be Def Con 4. This joint wil go nuclear.

 

[MsMeow]

Carter is going to be on a mission tonight.
