***Arizona Coyotes vs. LA Kings GDT 12/1/22 7:30pm on BSW***

Good timing with this win. Every other Pacific Division team that played tonight has lost.
 
A respectable and solid bounce back. A good first step. Now, lets see what happens against a quality team in Carolina.
 
Good solid win, although that save percentage of .857 by Quick.. still not a good look.
 
During the postgame interview, when Patrick told Lizzo that they ate all the gummy bears, and Stolly gives him a little cheeky side eye / smile :)
 
so nice to see Durzi and Roy not playing with each other. Would be much nicer to see Roy not playing at all.

Hi!
 
Tonight's fun facts: Kings have earned 4 out of 6 points on this homestand and have 6 out of a possible 8 points in their last 4 games.
 
Congratulations to the following posters who correctly guessed the first december goal would be scored by Kopitar and/or that the final tally of the nights game would include 8 goals:

A win is a win, Todd seems to think that was better. Aside from the terrible luck on Edlers goal I thought they limited chances reasonably well. The shorty sucked but was super glad to see them come right back and take advantage of the open space instead of going methodically through a program. Points are points and 4 of 6 on this homestand is winning hockey so far. Let's hope they close it out with 6 of 8. While the team has played more games than basically everyone, remember they are still in third in the pacific by points percentage. They are tracking to a 92-94 point season a quarter of the way through which honestly was right on the predictions. For everything that's gone wrong to this point, it sure feels like they have ample room to improve their position.

Pretty surreal to see the Kings stay in the top 10 goal scored this deep into the season. If they can ever clean up their goals against this team could be fun to watch in the playoffs.
 
How great was it to see Kopi pot 2 goals! The closeups on his face after each goal showed so much emotion. Hope that last night's success jumpstarts his season. He sure looked more engaged last night.

In fact, that whole line looked great. And, as a bonus, Kempe is playing the best defensive, physical hockey of his career. Maybe 22-11-9 actually will work...

They were actually totally fine in the game against Seattle too, it was Danaults line that was on the negative outcome side. Kopi and Fiala are making a much better effort this time around to actually accomplish stuff vs defer to each other.

Seattle played lights out in the third to tie it, and then won it just a few seconds into OT on a Beniers breakaway. Both goalies were terrific in this game.

Seattle is likely to hit a bump in the road at some point, but right now, they are looking like a playoff team.
