***Playoffs Rd1 GAME 3 GDT Edmonton Oilers vs. LA Kings 4/26/24 7:30pm on BSW, TBS & max***

So when is PLD gonna take over? It’s situations like this that we bought him for, right?

Don't worry, he's got seven more years to prove himself.

Someone needs to do a Geoff Courtnall here, or this game and series is done.

2nd period comes to a close. Just when the Kings were about to get their momentum back with DD's goal, Roy ruins it with a DD-esque turnover and let Edmonton score their 4th goal. Though the Kings decided to ramp up the physicality later in the period, they couldn't convert any more goals after DD's goal. LA really has to step up in the next 20 minutes or they're going to be looking for a lot of harsh answers if they lose this one.

I (sadly) was there for that game!

 

[Liz4LA]

The guy that I've seen actually want to win is Laff...the rest? Most of the team should be on a milk carton.

I (sadly) was there for that game!

Me, too. Close enough to see that Storr's eyes were lifeless

 

[Tiranga]

Me too! I hated him for the rest of his career.

Thank you Stoll and Evans for pointing out how poor the Kings passing has been tonight. I wonder if Blake icing 4 defensive d-men who can’t make a 12 foot pass has any impact on that…

 

[symbology]

Cam Talbot had one good save on Draistl and you all lost sight of the fact that we will lose this series with him in net.

Period.

Left field.........

 

[orpheus]

I mean, at least, the Kings didn't let in another 3 goals.

 

[pray4mojo]

Weird how the Oilers do things like "challenge guys" and not "just stand around" on their penalty kill

It's so obvious that the passive PK is just practice for the OIL... why not try something else? Are they worried our PK % will suffer?

 

[MiketheKing]

You can tell with the upgraded roster this year the Oilers got better our GM got Dumber

 

[FoxDie]

Today’s fun stat: 70.4% of teams that win game #3 go on to win the series. Just sayin…..

Except the Kings last year.

 

[deathb4dux]

Me, too. Close enough to see that Storr's eyes were lifeless

and yet they kept him in.

 

[Statue4Deano]

At least my Wetzel Pretzel was free with my Kings Cash. $20 per seat for STMs. They finally gave us something good!!

I love a Wetzel Pretzel. But let’s be honest that thing is not a pretzel. Not even close. It’s more like a twisted up breadstick.

 

[Tiranga]

I hope Luc has the ball$ to fire Blake this off season.

 

[hornman]

Well, Kane got rocked by Lizzy. There's the "sandpaper" and "playing dirty" I'm talking about.

Do you think anybody in the locker room told Kane he got checked and laid out by the smallest guy on the other side?

 

[DRice]

145 days until training camp

 

[symbology]

I read somewhere that some players thought game 1 was one of the worst of the season. Wonder where this stinker ranks

Um, you do know that teams go into the playoffs trying to forget about the regular season? It is obvious that the players that were asked that question did just that.

You are right though, this one is just as bad if not worse.

 

[Statue4Deano]

I hope Luc has the ball$ to fire Blake this off season.

I hope Luc joins him.
