special shout out to the birthday boy, #8 Drew Doughty! Screw you for being a week older than I am and far more successful financially


ANYWAYS. No Lewis tonight (and maybe for a while since he didn't make the trip). Quick in net for LA. Got to start this road trip off on the right foot and get their 5th win in a row!

He was listed as joining the team on the trip but not expected to play, hope it isn't a set back. I razzle the guy because I expected more for a 17th overall pick, but he has turned into a fine B6 center, he's versatile and a team guy. Granted, he has hands of stone but I digress - he played his part in both Cup wins and you can't ask for more than that.

On a side note, should we start a Go Fund Me page so that Jack Johnson can pay for a cab or Uber it to the game? Hey O!

Clifford a late scratch

Kings shooting wide a lot.
Give their goalie whiplash watching the puck go around the boards

Martinez OT win

 

[davnlaguna]

Yeah

 

[Psych3man]

WOW! What a ballsy team.
NHL has Martinez goal unassisted, that has to change, right? Play was beautiful tic-tac-toe--Martinez (Shore, Brown)

didn't watch the game cause I sleep during the afternoon, but I saw the box score and was not disappointed. Jack Johnson? A solid -3.

 

[Dumbo Rules]

This team likes the 3 on 3 OT format. They have been dominating. They have line changes down, possession down and the style of play down. They caught Columbus flat footed and made them pay.

To tag onto his career -2.66 million? Shocker.

On the OT goal by Martinez, Johnson, was looking he wrong way (at Shore) when Martinez had already shot the puck in.

Damn shame he has so much physical talent yet nothing between the ears, he believed all the hype about himself growing up - perfect example why parents shouldn't put their kids on pedestals, I fully believe Senior messed this guy up always propping him up and getting involved in his career. Probably the reason why he entrusted his folks with his finances as well, they were probably helicopter parents and did everything for him and shielded him instead of letting him learn his lumps.

Fast forward to his career and he is a below average defender and not that great offensively these days either, should be a humbling experience for him.
