WCSF Gm#1: KINGS vs. Sharks - 5/14/13 - One Down, Three To Go!!! GO KINGS GO!

[bobafettish*]

remember when the kings use to give up 4-0 goal leads. good times.

I absolutely love, love, love the fact that even though we win the players still know that there's things to work on, don't get overconfident, and have such an excellent worker mentality. Love it.

Quick is on another level than the rest of the league.

Sharks are not even close to Blues class. Some people really don't know how good the Blues were. ..people on the main board.

Post this on the rangers board.

100% agree. Pedestrian at times. Kings were in total control for long stretches and they made it look easy. Seems like the Blues series helped the Kings preparation significantly. I hope the Kings keep their foot on the gas, because they will start to fade if the series goes really deep.

Sharks had some rust as well I'm sure after sitting for so long and having a relatively easy opponent (compared to the Blues, Vancouver was a cake walk) for Round 1. I'm sure they'll come out guns-a-blazin' for game 2.

I'm fairly confident the Kings can take it up another notch as well. Just hope Stoll will make it back in game 2.

He might get infracted.

Man im happy with the win but I feel so down since Stoll looks out. I never thought i'd feel this sad about losing stoll. Damn man, suspend him 10 games.

 

[kinghock]

Regehr was great today.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Sooner Stoll than Kopitar or Richards. Thats about all thats good about potentially losing him. Its ******, but not insurmountable.

 

[CowMix]

Stoll, I really hope its not a concussion, Torres is just racking up headshots

 

[KingKopitar11*]

Doubt it. Richardson is available and can play all three positions.

Voynov with his third game winner.

True, the only reason why I'd argue against it is because Vey is a top 6 guy but Richardson has experience but he can't do anything offensively.

Not a good way to look at it, but I have to agree.

 

[Sydor25]

Regehr was great today.

Agreed. Solid hits and got his shots through. No turnovers.

Muzzin was solid too. Seems like the blues forecheck was brutal on him. Kings have more time to make decisions against the sharks.

Don't remember too many unforced turnovers by the kings tonight. Much better than the blues series.

I knew. I saw some very intense hockey that I knew would put us down right away when I saw the Kings vs Blues playoff series. (hopefully you don't mind me mentioning my team from time to time) It is why I was excited when I knew you would face the Sharks, because of your physicality.

 

[Peter James Bond]

Regehr was great today.

Truly! This is the first time I said to myself that maybe we should sign him for 2 more yrs.

 

[Sydor25]

Kings don't need offense from him on the fourth line. Just use his speed to keep pucks alive in the offensive zone. Would like to see Penner and Toffoli with Lewis on the third line.

At least on the main board. Then we can all slobber all over him and call him the GOAT and it's not even close

 

[tsanuri]

True, the only reason why I'd argue against it is because Vey is a top 6 guy but Richardson has experience but he can't do anything offensively.

And Vey has never played in a NHL game much less a playoff game. And it's possibility the 3rd line center. At this point experience trumps to me.

 

[Sydor25]

Does anyone remember an outnumber attack by the sharks tonight? I don't remember any. Any breakaways?

 

[Sydor25]

I love Sutter's answers. He never really answer the questions.

 

[KingKopitar11*]

Exactly.

Its just a Skill VS Experience scenario. But It's obvious he will lose out to Richardson.

 

[Little Psycho]

#lakings Sutter on Stoll - 'We weren't resting him and he didnt come back'

Ok...so he's hurt, right? Sucks.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Proud of this team considering injured Kopi, no Greene/Mitchell, no Clifford/Stoll, and still just chugging along...
