Game Thread: G43 25-12-5 Kings @ Krak Attack

[PuckinUgly57]

Game day again, 7pm start and on KCAL. Tough time slot with the NFC Divisional game going on as well but that should be over about halfway through the Kings game. Watched the AFC game earlier - color me shocked, penalties somehow help Mahomes and the Chiefs yet again - got a bathroom project done, ran some errands and will sit down with dinner and catch this game.

Nothing new to report, Laferriere skated today but is expected out for some time according to Jill. That's not good news, he's developing into a solid T6 player so hopefully he's back soon. Looking like the same lines as against Vancouver with Kuemper the starter.

Seattle is reeling, I think 4 wins in their last 15. However Cocko seems to have found a sexond chance, he has 4G/6A in 13 games since he was traded from NY. They are starting a 4 game home stand while LA wraps up the 5 game road trip at 2-2 so far.

Prediction: Kings roll 6-2 with goals by Kopitar, Kempe, Fiala, TOTM, Jeannot and Gavrikov and come home with a .600 road trip.

Let's Go Kings!

Should be a walk for LA, so that means they will struggle.... Still can't see them losing....3-2

Go Kings GO!

If the Kings win tonight, thats an extremely successful road trip IMO with whats going on with Palisades burning. The 2 losses they werent even destroyed and that 0-1 could have gone differently if LA would let me do their PP for a couple games

 

[Kings4OT]

Well that was fast

 

[davnlaguna]

Does Kempe get an assist on that

 

[Kings4OT]

Pp for #9

 

[Kings4OT]

Schwartz with #2 while Kings trying to push a guy for a hit

 

[Kings4OT]

Phew, Thought we were going to get out of a first period without a Clarke penalty

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Another Clarke Special penalty...

 

[Kings4OT]

Spense says keep me

 

[PuckinUgly57]

The Canadian born in Australia who is half Japanese gets one, late goals for are always good for momentum.

 

[Kings4OT]

Glad for the tie, Krac dominating play

 

[PuckinUgly57]

End of a long road trip, running the 11/7 constantly, I wouldn't be surprised if they are gassed.

 

[Kings4OT]

Bleh

 

[davnlaguna]

Playing down below their opponent

 

[Kings4OT]

Playing down below their opponent

Sucks when they do that, at least its not as bad as previous seasons

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Kings just don't seem to be in sync at all...

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Clarke moved to forward, looks better there than he does on defense.

Line blender in full activate mode by Jill.

 

[Kings4OT]

I just dont buy Clarke as a Dman

 

[Kings4OT]

Yay
