Hi Keeba!
Was this the Kings first game since the hearing for Voynov? I don't want to get into that, but I could see how a team would be emotionally flat after learning the situation of a teammate.
Such a cool situation for a home and home. Next game should be intense.

Just got back from the game. Thoughts:
- Really never expected us to score 4 goals on Quick, let alone score 3 that quickly in the 3rd period. Huge step for our team, although I would like to see something like this happen in LA for once. Should be an interesting game Thursday night.
- Tarasenko does have one of the best wrist shots I've ever seen. I can live with his defensive shortcomings that he does have if he continues to score like this.
- Shattenkirk continues to play great, he's seriously a beast out there at both ends of the ice now. And to play like this against LA, he's definitely improved as a player.
- Chris Butler looks better than I ever expected him to. He's not bad at all.
- Lindbohm's edge is awesome, he looks like he's about to kill anyone who comes within 5 feet of Allen.
- Schwartz was also very good, and I liked Ott's game too. Both played with a lot of energy.
- Paajarvi used his size more tonight than I've seen him. Still was pretty much useless out there on the ice, but hey... I'm trying to think of the positives for him.

Just reading through the thread and this made me laugh.
Paajarvi is so awful, Ott is literally twice as good as him and that's saying something.
I thought everyone looked good tonight for the most part, except Paajarvi (he wasn't bad, just the same useless player) and Stastny who is still invisible and completely disappointing. I haven't even seen Stastny battle for a puck as hard as Porter. C'mon man.

Is there a video with all/most of Tarasenko's goals this year?
Maybe make a Tarasenko goals video with Promontory from Last of the Mohicans playing and occasional goal calls mixed in. That would be greaaaaaat. I'm describing this in detail because I'm going to need someone else to actually put it together. Yeah..gonna need some help here. I'm from the shooting radioactive green bears in Oregon trail generation and can barely find my way to this website. I would love to see this video! Someone have mercy on me and please help.

Great game guys. I'd like to thank you and Tarasenko for obliterating us in front of Dean Lombardi and turnstiling Regehr to force the inevitable roster moves that will allow us to be good again 
See you all Thursday, hope it's as entertaining as tonight was despite me throwing my remote. Always a good time with you guys, cheers.

I hope this game wasn't a fluke and we don't get killed Thursday.
I would be disappointed but can't say I'd be utterly shocked. Looking forward to seeing what happens.

Nah. I'm not taking anything away from your victory, but we're dead in the water. It could be anything--exhaustion, distraction, whatever--but the Kings have some serious issues (besides the obvious missing second pairing--losing Mitchell and Voynov for nothing kills us on the ice). I wouldn't be surprised if you guys just rolled us over again.

Doesn't need to be said again for the millionth time, but you just gotta love this kids attitude to go along with all that talent.

Guys I just figured out what our secret weapon against the Kings tonight was. Lindbohm man! We put that kid in there to make it nasty for them, and threw them all off their games

I know you're probably at least half kidding, but guys like him are no fun to play against.
He, Backes and Reaves helped turn the tide with their physical play. Clifford wanted nothing to do with Reaver. Kept him in check.
This is why I want to see Jaskin up here. He plays a big boy game too and would do great next to Stastny.

Cheers, man. The Kings have forced the Blues to step up their game. Was nice to have one go our way tonight.
I have no doubts that Thursday night will be another solid matchup.

It was nice to see some resolve in the Team. It wasn't the first time this season, but it's good to see it against a team that has our number.
Hitch was talking about the team playing reckless and how they excelled at it. Isn't Hitch usually preaching structure?

I'm pretty sure, a natural is simply scoring 3 goals in regulation, that's what everybody said it was when Jori had his.

Natural hat trick is three straight goals.
Jori Lehtera's hat trick was that I believe. He scored the first three goals of the game.

Don't put your money on it. As stated above, it's 3 goals uninterrupted by scores made by anyone else. Back in the old days 3 straight WAS the ONLY hat trick. Scoring 3 goals in one game, with any interruption, was NOT a "hat trick".

Some quotes about the LA game from Alexander Steen from Swedish news-site "Aftonbladet":
"It's beginning to feel like it should again. And above all I'm getting good scoring chances again. In the first fifteen-twenty games I barely got any, but tonight it felt like I could've scored at least three goals."
The reason it's feeling better?
"That I play on a line with Backes and TJ Oshie again, just like last season. If you've developed chemistry and know each other on the ice, everything is easier. But that's not just me, everybody has found their roles and the whole team is going."
On tonight's game:
"It was a strong effort by us, but we're playing well right now, we believe in what we do and feel that we can beat anybody."
On Tarasenko:
"He really had a great night. That shot, I mean, he just has an incredibly fast release."
