Taken from the blog
-No King recorded fewer than 12:16 of ice time (Andreoff) or more than 22:53 (Voynov). All forwards recorded between 12:16 (Andreoff) and 17:37 (Kopitar) of ice time. The skater with the least amount of even strength ice time was Tyler Toffoli, with 10:45.

This is what makes the Kings hard to play against. They play everyone quite a bit. It wears teams down over a game, over a season and in the playoffs.

Yeah I read that. Impressive rolling of the 4 lines. Of course that's a lot easier playing with the lead they built early on. Not having to play catchup sure helps.

Is it true that they showed a graphic about the shut out right before the Oilers scored?

They literally talked about it not even 5 seconds before the Oilers scored. I'm pretty sure as the sentence ended the Oilers scored, and it was a crappy goal to boot.

I just shook my head - you clowns couldn't wait 30 more seconds? The SO jinx is almost a proven fact.

Just curious but does anyone know why Tyler got less time than Andreoff? Andreoff was a call up where at Tyler has been a mainstay? Tyler is young too so limiting minutes shouldn't be an issue?

Toffoli's time listed was even strength ice time. He also got power play time and a little penalty kill also I think. Andreoff's time was total ice time. I never saw him on the PP but Andreoff could have had some PK time.

Sutter is starting to trust Toffoli more in all situations. His assist on Martinez' Cup-winning goal I believe was his only shift that overtime period. He averaged 13 atoi last year's regular season and playoffs.

Toffoli is really growing on me. He was solid his first go around but almost all last season he was MIA, to the point where I am on record saying send this kid down and get him some work because he isn't NHL material just yet.

He completely changed that in the playoffs and so far into this season, he looks more confident and is an impact player in every game I've watched so far. Hope the kid continues and develops, he could be a huge part of this team for some time.

Pearson is the guy that has impressed me since his call up, dude is always moving and hustling which creates a lot of plays. He averages less time then any forward but Nolan I believe

no, im not saying this because he leads LA currently in goals.....I said it before the season started
