Kings taking over the series

 

[Cobiemonster]

DREWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! Yes!

Crawford reverting back to his natural state of being a mediocre goalie

 

[BlueWolfZero]

I laugh every time some analyst claims Crawford is one of the best goalies in the world, because he really isn't

 

[Cobiemonster]

Kings win 4-3!!! 2-1 series lead!!!

 

[sherbert1421]

Kings are the stronger team and they are wearing down the hawks as the games progress.

 

[postmaster]

Better record this year
Better head to head record this year
More recent success in previous years

What else you want? The Kings are a good team. The Hawks are a borderline dynasty.

Kings are the stronger team and they are wearing down the hawks as the games progress.

To say the Kings are better is just ridiculous.

 

[davnlaguna]

Kings have been better than the Hawks at times during these games but npt for a complete game yet.
In my opinion, these are the best two teams. I think the Kopitar and Toews lines have been even. Toews has been out scoring Kopitar ( but not when he is on the ice) so Toews gets an advantage there, but the Zues/Kane line has been outplayed by the Carter/TT line. Coach Q will need to figure out how to slow down that line or Hawks will be golfing sooner then they want

Let's do this Kings - keep your foot on the gas pedal and don't let Chicago get back in this - make sure you keep your eye on the big guns and make sure they don't get going - and let's get the first goal too, haven't done that in this series yet

 

[Cobiemonster]

Jake Muzzin!!!! 1-0 Kings!

 

[sherbert1421]

Textbook screen by carter. No chance for Crawford on that one

 

[Cobiemonster]

Gabby!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2-0 Kings!

 

[Ho_Brah]

Done deal.

Textbook screen by carter. No chance for Crawford on that one

text book explosion dive by Quick makes the call and LA delivers on the PP. is this where the fans of the opposing team scream THE NHL WANT THE KINGS IN THE PLAYOFFS TO FACE THE RANGERS AND HAVE THE 2 BIGGEST MARKETS lol

the one thing that is serious is that I dont think Hossa should have been called for that. he was pushed in, but the Kings are just controlling this series now. Ive never seen the hawks make so many mistakes.

if the Kings win I bet you will see a ton of Crawford is so overrated blah blah blah

 

[postmaster]

I can't see any scenario where the Kings don't win the cup.

I wouldn't doubt it but this LA team will have earned it by beating SJ and Anaheim. Once they did that, the cup was theirs to lose.

wouldnt say that yet, it sure looks like it but the game where Chicago won it looked like they were the ones to beat. it changes so quickly. I would also not count out the Rangers either. We will see however. I cant wait to get to the Final round to watch. god these have been great playoffs. so much good hockey and drama

 

[Cobiemonster]

Brownie!!!! 3-0 Kings!!!

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Good effort on that pk by seabrook lol

 

[pixburgher66]

This means Toews is an awful leader, right?


Real talk: Kings when they're on are incredible to watch.
