GDT: XXXVIII | "Enguard" | Oilers vs. Kings | 12.29.15 | 7:00PM | SN-OIL

Why does Brown feel the need to flip to the ice and pretend to be hurt when the game is 5-2? Then gets up and finished his shift like nothing was wrong at all.

 

[McDrai]

Averaging over 100% capacity even with their rough start. Or is this an inside joke? If not, lame attempt.

You can thank their massive population for that
Many people in LA don't even know about the Kings

 

[Baronsfan]

You realize every NHL team inflates their numbers, right? Florida announced a sellout crowd today, do you think they actually sold out?

Every team has, and always will skew the numbers by calculating tickets sold, not actual attendance. It's nothing new.

He has always been one of the biggest 'divers' in Hollywood ... er Hockey.

Panthers sold out today. Why? Because of hab fans. If not, it'll still be empty like always. "Sellout" means jack.

Cause Dustin Brown is a POS who can literally jump and cross check someone in the face and the league goes, "oh he didn't mean it, its fine".

Dustin Brown is the one player that if the Oilers signed him, I would not watch a single game.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

But at least maybe we'll be tough to play against. It's about time the Oilers fill out the ranks with dirty players that hurt the opposition. That's what hockey is all about.

You know when the Oilers try that stuff they'll be called out on it...

That right there should be a penalty for embellishment. Brown has a history of embellishing.

LA was a dead market before 2012. Coincidence?

 

[Dave]

LA up 5-2 with 25s left still pushing hard to score a goal.

 

[Del Preston]

Because he's Dustin Brown.

Does it really matter? We aren't winning anyways, might as well start injuring other teams stars for a change. They so it to our guys for years with 0 repercussions. We suck, might as well make life hard on the other guys.

 

[SullivanT]

First star of the game from the LA kings cam talbot 3 goals in 1 min 30 seconds

When reffing actually costs us a game then people can complain. How bad reffing overshadows the fact that this team is complete **** amazes me

Our PP is completely inept, in fact usually kills momentum

 

[Baronsfan]

How about the many years of 1/2 attendance should they get kudos for that as well.

I bet they would rather have that problem than not making the playoffs the last 10 years. Just find it humorous reading through comments bashing another market, it ain't gonna make this game any closer or affect the oilers play one iota.

 

[McDeathbyCheerios*]

Talbot and Schultz lost us the game.

 

[Gone]

It doesn't matter, they need to start hurting players like Brown, Doughty etc. ... just maybe the league would wake up then.

 

[Aerchon]

Talbot and Schultz lost us the game.

Yes.

Here's the thing. When teams can interfere, slash, cross check do whatever they want against you without a penalty it makes it hard to play the game as you can't do much as the other team is literally cheating constantly to win.

Hall gets tripped, high stick, slashed. Ignored by ref. Draisaitl clearly slashed and hurt by it from Brown. Gets nothing. Same old king officiating game.

They ice a successful team and have a successful organization now. Not so much a coincidence, mostly common knowledge as that is the way it usually works.

Hi Drew Remenda.

And the Oilers can ice complete garbage with a bit of false hope for 8 years and sell the building out

Not true, Hall eventually got a penalty.

Bitter.
