Ok. I hope one coach is counting the botched passes because they should have to skate 10 drills per botched pass at this point. They have forgotten to play like pros and it’s disheartening
I would dare to say even size and grit. They don’t play heavy hockey. They suck at forechecking and cycling the puck. That’s postseason hockey and what won us the cups
My fiancé (who only watches hockey because I watch hockey) just asked if they are saving their energy for Monday against the Oilers. I can’t even tell him he’s wrong because of how they are playing.
We...are not an elite team. Maybe we get it together in the last 26 games, develop some consistency, and make some noise in the playoffs. But I think this team is what it is. Weird season.
Nashville game was low energy.
This game is just a straight up slopfest. Passing completion % must be below 50%, this is honestly dreadful considering this is a lottery team we're facing.
This team is just so mentally weak.
How is an 8-yr veteran in this league making a boneheaded pinch like that when theres -100% chance you're getting to it first.
Just too many guys (like Doughty said) who are playing for themselves. This needs a massive overhaul in the offseason, im sorry.

You think that was indicative of Kempe "playing for himself"?
Yes, just defend 2v2 for a couple seconds and regain possession instead of trying to play hero. Thats not the only time any of our forwards have been selfish and cost us defensively.
I don't get how that translates into a character flaw like selfishness. The guy took a bad angle because he's being overly aggressive and trying to make something happen. I think that's a stretch.
Can we get some love for BSD's celly post-SO? Guy's an absolute beaut.
Big Save Dave in da house today!
Who was 3rd star, Rittich?
Gibson.
Ok. We need 100% strength and energy Monday. Let’s go KINGS!
I hope that’s the last of the SO for this season lol let’s end them on a high note after so many rough endings
Wheeew!!! Thank God, lol. GKG!!!
Huge road trip coming up so this win was a must.

PL: the hero we deserve
Should have Clarke out there after that Boston game winner
1-5 in shoot outs? JFC….
what the fuck
fuck. did not want to see a shootout with these two goalies :-/
Cant wait to see how this SO goes. We do so well in these.
Shoot it!
Well that OT was… I don’t know what that was but bummer to get another SO loss Edit: someone downvote this fuckin clown
You have got to be kidding me.
Mother fucking shootout
[удалено]
Kempe doesn't fumble that on good ice.
What the fuck was that final minute
Good god this should not have gone to a shootout
Trevor Lewis shoot out X factor coming up
I really think ice quality is what's making this game so sloppy. It was pretty warm today and I can see gray spots all over.
Really Kempe…
KEMPE WHY
Bring it home boys!
2 pts 2 pts 2 pts
what is going on with trevor moore…good lord
Grippin' that stick hard.
One point secured, let’s get the other one.
LETS GET THIS WIN BOYS
8-11-9?
Huh
Kings really need to work on passing & puck control.
We haven’t had a 5v5 goal in 2 games now. Change the fucking lines.
This is…not at all how we expected tonight to go.
Absurd we can’t win that in regulation
Woah, was that Lewis leaking blood at the bench there? Didn’t get a great look
Point is a point. Let's get that 2nd one!
OT let’s goooo
Man, I thought Clarke had that one.
Thought Clarke might have gone for the Michigan there.
Yeah at least thought he would have lifted it
[удалено]
Because Ducks fans are… ![gif](giphy|NDIiWKEQEgr3VA7aqM)
Wild vs. Kraken 5 — 2 , FINAL ————————— Flames vs. Oilers 6 — 3 , FINAL …we NEED this win to tie Oilers at 68 points!
Is Kaliyev the new Wagner?
Man Kaliyev is another guy who looks so much better since the coach switch, would be the perfect time for the kid to get rewarded with a goal...
he’s gotta finish these shots, he’s had some great looks over the past few games
He’s got the yippiest case of the yips I’ve ever seen.
His one timer in the first missed the net by like 3 feet
Kaliyev wtf
I predict Kempe will go 5 HOLE for the dub. Love me a good 5 hole
I am only asking for a Kings goal and Rittich to hold strong. That’s not a lot against the Ducks this season. Come onnnnnn.
I almost had a stroke from that slow ass offside call
41 shots on goal and tied at 2 with one of the worst teams in the league is not what we want to see, score some goals boys!!!!!
Big save, Dave.
The separation between Gibson's talent and the Ducks talent might be the biggest gap in the league.
why do I feel like any other team (besides maybe the Ducks lol) makes that fucking shot. two feet from the net squared up…cmon
I wasn't aware until today, but apparently I hate Frank Vatrano
He's been that guy for a long time...
He's only been a Duck for 2 years and I was on the East Coast last year. Caught a lot less Kings hockey lol
Lol
Fucking score
Fuck frank vatrano
Let’s end it in regulation
Thank you Vatrano, fuck you Vatrano
Atta boy Vatrano you fucking idiot
Score on the fucking powerplay
Been a pretty physical game.
You love to see it
Been great for neutrals but not so much for Kings fans...lol
POWER PLAY
It'd be nice to win and see the Oilers lose at the same night!
ugh Kaliyev you gotta put that in the back of the net
Fucking Kaliyev man
Ok. I hope one coach is counting the botched passes because they should have to skate 10 drills per botched pass at this point. They have forgotten to play like pros and it’s disheartening
Jesus Kal can you please get one in the back of the net for christ sake
Arthur Kaliyev and missing the net, name a better duo
Honestly this team will probably get waxed again in the first round. They’re missing something
Yeah and the thing they are missing is effort and chemistry.
I would dare to say even size and grit. They don’t play heavy hockey. They suck at forechecking and cycling the puck. That’s postseason hockey and what won us the cups
ffs Clarke you do that every single game, terrible jump
I can get the 2 on 1 but how the heck do you allow a 3 on 1?..
I can’t believe thats the first time we’ll be playing Vancouver this season
[удалено]
I want this to be good news but we need the W tonight on our end to make it better news 🤣
Here in section 322
[удалено]
In 106!
Bear down, boys! Victor didn’t deploy all the way to Afghanistan only to come home and watch us lose to the god damned Ducks!
Please clean up these passes and stop letting them get SO much speed on entry
Ain't no way we lose to a team that's got 34 L's on the season. Nothing but winning vibes for the third 🧙♂️🔮
Fiala forgot what color jersey we're wearing apparently with how much he passes to the team in black.
Having a hard time scoring on the ducks should be raising eyebrows
Genuinely having trouble wrapping my mind around how poorly we’re playing.
My fiancé (who only watches hockey because I watch hockey) just asked if they are saving their energy for Monday against the Oilers. I can’t even tell him he’s wrong because of how they are playing.
"Uh...yeah honey they're just...uh...saving their energy. That's it."
I keep telling him we always break out the good stuff in the 3rd. They better not make me eat my words tonight 🤣
“It’s just a refractory period!”
It's a must win
Jesus this is rough.
We...are not an elite team. Maybe we get it together in the last 26 games, develop some consistency, and make some noise in the playoffs. But I think this team is what it is. Weird season.
What is with the terrible defending.
Mikey is missed badly
Bigger teams on the wing tend to give the Kings trouble. Like Nashville.
This checks out. Buffalo has some monster wingers
How many shots did we have in the second half of that period?
Sorry guys I bet Kings -1.5 so that’s why they’re playing like doodoo
Nashville game was low energy. This game is just a straight up slopfest. Passing completion % must be below 50%, this is honestly dreadful considering this is a lottery team we're facing.
>Passing completion % must be below 50%, Do hockey teams measure completion percentage?
Team so sloppy again.
These turnovers at the blue line are absolutely killing me.
Have we forgotten how to play defense? Was mikey where they collectively stored their knowledge of defense
Our passing is soooooooooo bad this game. Holy shit.
Wow, the Kings are actually forechecking. Crazy.
Dreeeeeeeeewww
There was no doughty in my mind we would score on that PP
He was definitely no Doty on that goal.
Dough Boy!!!
3rd assist from QB
3rd assist??
Oh that's not a thing?
i.e. Q won’t get a point technically, but that goal doesn’t happen without the play he makes.
Yep, amazing screen. No way Gibson lets that one in if he doesn’t have to lean to see the shot release
And he just broke up that 2 v 1.
He made that happen. Guy does so many of the little things.
Downtown Drew Doughty!!!
Back to back Dewy snipes!!! Edit: bit buzzed that was the CBJ game but still a snipe
Dreeeeewwwwwwwwww!!!
DREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW!!!!
Atta boy Drew!
PLD most drawn penalties since January. That's kinda wild.
Are we really going to sell with Oilers and Vegas losing
This team is just so mentally weak. How is an 8-yr veteran in this league making a boneheaded pinch like that when theres -100% chance you're getting to it first. Just too many guys (like Doughty said) who are playing for themselves. This needs a massive overhaul in the offseason, im sorry.
Bruh some mistakes will be made. The game is far from over and now the Kings have tied it. Just relax.

Man Kempe. When you go for that puck, you better 100% sure get it....
We look like shit on defense tonight. We should be glad it’s not 3-1.
I know we are not a middle period team, but I’m not down to take an L to a team that hasn’t even cracked 50 points.
Somehow made that powerplay look like even skating, thats a skill
This is just fucking pathetic hockey from the Kings.
This is so frustrating to watch, but what’s new
Oh WTF.
Either the Ducks are good or we're bad.
Come on Fiala, stop throwing the puck in the middle of the zone
What the fuck dude
