Post-Game Talk: LA "Kings" visit the actual Kings of the NHL | 2/11/19

I like adding a RHD for depth in case Carlson or Niskanen get injured because I don't trust Bowey.

If either of those guys are hurt for very long or for a must win game, they are probably cooked anyway unless Djoos stepped up big. Carlson is the better player but they could probably survive better without him for a game or two than Niskanen

His vision was good on his pass to Kuzy for Kuzy's 2nd goal.

Wasn't that Ovi that passed to Kuz on his second goal last night, not Bura? Did you mean his first goal?

It seems like we just need 19 and the D to get going and we are good for a b2b

Until they lose to the Jackets and they suck again and we are all ready to quit.

Its not a store window but it only took me 30 seconds

Not bad! Not bad at all! Bravo!

I agree, but I'm referring to a short-term injury where a guy could step into the lineup and do an adequate job for a few games if need be. That bar isn't too high but I don't really think Bowey even clears that bar for me since he terrifies me even on the third pair.

Again, it's not really a necessary move but it's one where I can say that it makes some amount of sense.

If either of 2 or 74 went out of the lineup 29 would certainly be bumped up. No chance they put Bowey in that role. 3rd pair? Sure. I think though that they would put Seigenthaler in rather than Bowey anyway....come playoffs

I am still stunned teams don't try to hit Djoos. I guess in his low TOI it's tough for them to game plan for. I would, regardless. Any time a team tries to shelter someone, that is someone to target.
