Game Thread: G57 31-17-8 Kings @ Stars 2/28/25

[PuckinUgly57]

Game day again, 5pm start on FDS. On the road and stopped at a bar for a little bit before heading to my son's flag football game, traffic is horrible today all over. Lots of accidents and what not, might as well have one or two to let it die down and catch a bit of the game.

Not much to say, no real changes tonight except Doughty will be in, expect the same lineup otherwise and the 11/7 again. Kuemper to start.

Prediction: Stars 4-1, the Kings road woes as well as losing streak in Dallas continues. Kings lone goal by Kempe.

Let's Go Kings!

Dallas looking like they're ready to play, step it up boys!

 

[PuckinUgly57]

This ia going well, 3-1 Dallas. Kings have had to come back in the last 3-4 games, seems like it's becoming a habit. At some point that luck runs out.

Best chance Kings have is for me to say this one over, dont see them getting back into it

Turned the game on and before I even know why there is over 3 minutes of PK they get scored on twice.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

This one ain't looking good. Dallas not allowing many looks at all.

Stankoven (R2/47th/2021), Johnston (R1/23rd/2021), Robertson (R2/39th/2017), this is what the Kings high picks should look like. Instead we're subjected to Turcotte and Buster.

Just a few more years of development and we're there

Hes upset he didnt hit the net lol, How often?
Is he even close to the net with his shot

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Is TOTMs gyroscope off or something? Hanging around Buster too much? Only meh look on the PP and he rips it like 5 feet wide and clears it himself.

Good lord.

Only when a goalie isn't there.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

And Oettinger wasn't there, soft goal. Bowlby should trade TOTM before this game is over and he plummets into another 1476 game goalless streak.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Is Mr Arrived scratched? Just wondering since I haven't seen him on the ice being a facilitator.

 

[davnlaguna]

Starting to think buying the team free shots at Gilleys from noon to 3today wasn’t a good motivator

 

[PuckinUgly57]

I'd say chalk this up to being a stinker, it happens. But having to come back the last few games, not establishing yourself early, not showing you are a team to contend with, Bowlby fingerprints.

Completely outclassed and out played, this team is not a contender. Another WCQF and out team yet again. These are the teams they'll have to beat and they just aren't built that way.

Ya, cant win em all....peeeyew
