Game Thread: Columbus Blue Jackets @ Los Angeles Kings 2/6 7:30 PM

Jobu got us goals but not the win. We need the extra defensive power, so today we are sacrificing:

one whole chicken.

Final game before the olympic break. Make it count!

Game information for those who actually believe a game thread should contain such a thing.

Just FYI to those guys going tonight. It just starting raining downtown.

Raining out here in North OC too, Yorba Linda. We live in the hills off Gypsum Canyon and I just picked up Little Ms. Puck from school and the 91 started to get jammed up at Weir Canyon leaving OC and heading into the 909.

Roads are wet, people are driving like mooks - be careful out there.

Over under on Johnson scoring a goal tonight?

My guess: he head fakes Muffin, scores a lucky goal on Quick. Never seems to fail when ex Kings come to visit.

I think this will happen, but JJ will still be a -2 for the game

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

Already a penalty.

Are you serious?? in less then 2 minutes in to the game & we are down 1-0.

Can't kill penalties any more and can't stay out of the box. Usually leads to losses.

Can't score on the power play. Can't score 5 on 5.

This club has sunk faster than the Edmund Fitzgerald. An epic collapse.

Quick might be playing his way out of a starting job in the Olympics

What the hell has happened to the Kings offense?!

And think Miller was going to be the starter anyways.

I blame you

 

[davnlaguna]

And too many men
I now know I am listening to a kings game

Better question: What has happened to the Kings defense? The offense has been pretty much absent all season. But they were playing great defense early on and it carried them to where they are in the standings. It's showing in this game big time.

As for Miller vs Quick, yeah I have to agree it was most likely going to be Miller all along due to his experience in the last Olympics. Quick was on the team but was the 3rd goalie and never saw any action. Quick may get a game in the preliminary round most likely against Slovenia. The preliminary round play by both will determine who goes in the medal rounds.

Can't even get the basics right...too many men on the ice

 

[oxnardkingsfan]

Pretty fortunate to be down only by 1 after that horribly played period. Good news is there are still 40 minutes to play and they can't play any worse. Can they?

I am scared to find out
