[Little Psycho]

Manson being a lil bitch

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I don't even care if we come back and win the game at this point, I've lost faith not because of the personnel, but the coaching and the system.

Only thing that had us in the season and in the playoff series was superhuman individual efforts by a handful of the best players on the planet. When they aren't running the table, we're ****ing garbage because I could personally set up a team at 5 spots on the ice and pick off every pass the Kings make.

I thought the whole idea of Steven taking over was opening up the middle and being more creative?

classic phaneuf

drop a guy, listen to the "you wanna go??? you wanna go??" and turn and skate away

beauty

Only one: Brickley.

 

[SlimCharles]

Wow Manson is really complaining about that? Maybe you shouldn't have started playing hockey then Mr. Softie.

It’s still the preseason and you’ve lost faith? Serious question: have you been drinking?

If we make the playoffs it will be in spite of stevens and we'll be 5 games and out.

I gave him some leash to get used to the team and make some changes and no matter what Blake has done Stevens has found a way to ice the worst f***ing possible lineup and do the opposite of everything he says.

Maybe he meant 'back pressure' as in "all 5 guys will be chasing the game because we won't forecheck or backcheck or frankly move at all."

Also yes I've been drinking what of it

Exactly.

We saw 10 games of guys venturing creative plays then to the abyss.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Kopi went Fowler hunting with that shot, that wasn't close to the net

 

[Bandit]

Kings power play blown dead because a duck gets high sticked by his own guy. Classic

 

[kingsfan28]

he tried to sell it like a King did it.

 

[kilowatt]

this is less than ideal

 

[kingsfan28]

Booooo!

Cheers mate.

How disappointing

 

[Bandit]

Wagner is abusing Schenn. He better make the team.

 

[tny760]

liking this wagner-JAD-lewis line a lot

reminds me a lot of that tampa 4th line from a year or two back, they're just out there buzzing

 

[Fishhead]

Traffic on shots is always good, but that's all the Kings try to do. Drive a guy to the net and shoot it from the point. Other teams simply collapse, it's far too predictable. Take the goddamn reins off.

 

[Bandit]

Kopitar circling the perimeter...

 

[Sol]

Kings have a legit offensively Talented roster. How does a team like that suck so bad.

Get rid of Stevens

kopi passes up a chance to make a power move in to goal just to make a little pass out to the point and pray play again

irritating

The ol can opener.

Sad thing is none of dmen can get shots through
