Game Thread: WCQF G2 Kings @ Oilers 4/24/24

[PuckinUgly57]

Pretty sure we beat everything to death in the G1 thread, not much else to say here that we haven't already.

- stay out of the box
- attack them in their D zone disrupting breakouts
- slow McJesus down

All are easier said than done but after Monday anything would be an improvement.

Let's Go Kings!

Englund MUST fight someone (anyone) within the first 5 min as well, just to say the Kings aren't going away.

Im partial to him fighting McJesus!

 

[Kings4OT]

Tor lost, its a good day....VGK and Stars huge hits early, Those teams are going to be beat up by the end of this round

Who is thw annoying f**ktard right near Nixon and crew? Keeps getting picked up on the mic.

Kings playing beey cautious so fat, at least they aren't down 2-0 already.

Nice pick there by Kopitar. Great snipe by Kempe. Perfect start.

 

[Kings4OT]

Half the Kings look 4'-9"

 

[Stunner_At_Staples_Kings]

Man. Kings casual in their own zone but they're WAY more physical in front of their own net, which is a start. Kopitar with another pick there and another great chance of Kempe. Pressuring that defense is the key to this game.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Much more physical start, Buster with the trip though. Bit surprised Talbot is starting again though.

 

[Kings4OT]

Fiala tends to disappear in the PO, would love to see him break out vs Oil this time

 

[Stunner_At_Staples_Kings]

Yeahhhh. Kempe #2

 

[Kings4OT]

Kempe, A to Bouchard

 

[Kings4OT]

We can relax, Kings protect a two goal lead, Almost as well as a three goal lead

 

[Stunner_At_Staples_Kings]

Oilers already 9 of 12 on faceoffs and turnovers in Kings zone a problem but big start here.

Controlling the neutral zone well. At least getting bodies on people.

 

[Stunner_At_Staples_Kings]

I don't even know what just happened. All ten skaters seemed like there were in the net

 

[Stunner_At_Staples_Kings]

Mikey Andersen big save there. Talbot had no idea where that puck was.

 

[Kings4OT]

Talbot

 

[Stunner_At_Staples_Kings]

Ouch. Two Kings caught. Probably need a big save on that one. Pretty grade A chance.

Doughty!!!

 

[Kings4OT]

DD the breakaway???

Once you mentioned it, it hear it now. He keeps trying to get a "Talbot" chant going.
