[Kings4OT]

Another game the kings should win against a mediocre team. Just because it will save the coach i'm guessing the king's win today..... I expect pretty much most of the same that we see every game

Turcotte recalled, hope they don't sit him and actually play him.

Blues have won 4 in a row so they're on a small roll, crap if the Kings won 4 in a row I'd be doing cartwheels at this point.

Game time is 11am PST, it's also on NHLN as the Showcase Game. Please do not completely f**k the dog on such a platform.

 

[Kings4OT]

Not showing on that nhl66

 

[CaptHowdy00]

Not on ESPN+ either. Where is the game being shown. If I can’t watch it, at least I can watch foot ball.

 

[Kings4OT]

Ya i dunno, Not sure why I can't get one fucking thing to watch kings hockey on

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Locally it's blacked out on NHLN, it redirected me to BSW (DTV 692).

I'm pretty sure if you DL the BSW app you'll be able to watch it.

 

[Kings4OT]

.bsw?

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Bally Sports West.

 

[Kings4OT]

Im able to listen....just doing that, I like to be able to watch as much of the ice as possible... But at least this is something

 

[Kings4OT]

At least the god has 6 straight pp for stl he can blame...same everthing else

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Unfreakingbelievable - lost 14 of 16, the 10 SO/OTL is the most of any team in a PO spot. The Blues now have the same number of points as LA but the Kings hold WC1 because they've played 1 less game and Nashville is on their heels too.

These guys are done folks.

I seriously don't know how this guy still has a job.

 

[davnlaguna]

A point
I should be happy about a point?
January can’t end soon enough

 

[PuckinUgly57]

They'll be out of PO spot after Nashville. the Kings are in complete freefall. Book it.

 

[CaptHowdy00]

Flake needs to make a change. If he doesn’t, Flake needs to go along with Todd.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Blake isn't going until June minimum. Only available option is sending Teh Todd off.

 

[Kings4OT]

I dont see Todd going either if he wasnt gone by now. Sad, imo that puts next season in jeopardy now too. As i keep harping on I really dont think you can accurately evaluate this roster if they are only doing the same thing over and over. If they get a coach in place now, he will move guys around, change the style and help shine a light on where to go in the offseason. Instead i think we will get the "throw something at the wall and hope it sticks" treatment.....which leads to trying to find the problems around this time next season, that wastes an entire year.

If im correct and that is the case (highly probable imo) i unfortunately think at that point the Kings will be years away from anything good. Dark times ahead i think

 

[PuckinUgly57]

This losing streak sucks, but I have to say I'm stoked the whole Kaliyev 30 goal guy and what not has come to roost. Don't be a f**king idiot, you don't know jack until jack actually happens.

I still never understand how Kings fans overrate these players. Maybe I just happen to see shit before it actually happens, maybe I'm just a negative clown, no idea. What I do know is that I know that talent doesn't grow on trees and the Kings seem to be devoid of that. When have the Kings had a guy who made headlines? Been like almost 40 years, Carson. But other teams year in and year out have someone making a name.

I'm just so soured on this team, I don't know what else to say. Capped out bad team.

 

[Kings4OT]

I dunno, if Kaliyev would just take over the game, Kings would be fine.

He is actually a player that has moved around into different roles on occasion...he fails at all of them....Point is he had some chances, we know what we got with him right now....move on

 

[PuckinUgly57]

It's more a jab at Teh Blog, the 30 goal Kaliyev talk was over the top last summer. This guy will be lucky to score 30 goals the rest of his career, he's a B6 player and will be utilized as such. For a 33rd overall however that is not good.

And yes he has been played all over and isn't good on any line, who does that fall on? Yanetti and his staff. Haven't drafted an impactful player since Kempe in 2014 and Roy in 2017. Considering the high draft slots, complete failures as far as I'm concerned.
