Game day, 630pm on ESPN. Just going to chill, make dinner and watch. Not sure if it's the ESPN app or channel but I have both so should be able to catch it.

No lineup changes, was a little surprised to see Joseph in when me and K4OT attended Saturday but apparently Malott is injured now and not expected the rest of the games. Not sure what happened there. Glass Boy still out, expecting Forsberg in again. That dude was solid against Edmonton and should be starting every game including POs if the Kings clinch.

And speaking of, tonight is also a clinching scenario. Any combination of 4 points gained by LA/lost by Nashville locks the Kings in. WC2 is the most likely but believe it or not PD2 and 3 are still options. Nutty considering how the season has gone but also indicative how bad the PD is.

Kraken are 2-0 on a three game home stand and were officially eliminated from PO contention last week but will play for jobs and pride. Don't expect them to roll over and for whatever reason Kings Seattle games seem to go down to the wire. They play LA hard. Kings just need to keep winning although I wanted that higher draft pick, a week long series getting torched by Colorado does not appeal to me.

Magic 8 Ball says: Very Likely.

Let's Go Kings!

Refs stopped them from fighting so after two minutes to catch their breath, they tried again.
Mostly hurt their hands

Nice to see but need that against the top teams. Leah Hextall definitely with the extra Byfield glaze right now.

Maybe it's all good. Get his confidence up.

100%, a lot of his stuff has come againat teams like Vancouver, Toronto, now Seattle, etc.

I'm happy he's scoring but he has definitely trended down the last two years and especially this one.

Still on my trade list this summer for help elsewhere.

For a big guy he plays small, 5v5 he has trouble...
He needs to jump around guys or he gets pushed off the play. Open ice, yea he can skate, looks great when there isnt 10 guys on the ice.

Hope he can take the scoring into the PO

ESPN+ or whatever it’s called, allows you to watch the game in “catchup mode”. Which shows all the highlights of the game up to the present moment.

Oh boy, hope this isn't the third period collapse.

3-2 Kings.
