Who remembers when Andy Murray got fired? It was a game when the Kings honored Adam Deadmarsh in a pregame ceremony. The Kings hadn’t played well but really stunk it up that night. The fans booed them off the ice & Bob Miller blasted the team in the post game show. This game seems similar.
I’m not for or against TM getting fired. They’re going to do what they’re going to do. But I kind of think he’s being scapegoated & that the person to blame most besides the players is Blake. He’s the one who constructed this team. But if Todd isn’t fired he needs to make drastic changes. Change the line combos, change who gets more ice time & who doesn’t, & change who’s in the lineup, including bringing up guys from Ontario (Turcotte & Thomas). If it is on the players, hold them accountable in a meaningful way.
Also on a less depressing note, when they did the pregame Kopi ceremony & gave him a vacation stay at the hotel in Colorado, I was hoping it would be the same hotel that inspired Stephen King to write The Shining. But disappointingly no.
