GDT ***Colorado Avalanche vs LA Kings Opening Night GDT - 10/7/25 7:30pm on ESPN***

[Rogie-Vachon]

Anyone catch Clarke's expression while sitting in the box?
Pure swagger.
BS cross check call - total dive by the Av... but Clarke's smerk is great.

Plan B is a new head coach.

Steve Levy picked the Kings to win the cup in the ESPN survey. Not sure what Levy is smokin these days.

It's the whole team, this Alphonse/Gaston routine needs to stop--especially with how well Colorado covers the middle of the ice.

Yes, but in the preseason Moore was the on puck carrier on a few 2 on 1's and he had no clue how to get in position to receive a pass.

Kings look outclassed by the Avs which has been fairly typical for past few years. We cannot keep up with their speed. Byfield was going to go off on a penalty anyhow so he just decided to stand in front of Darcy and leave Necas uncovered.

I think the Kings just need more big strapping bodies. That should take care of all their issues.

This! Playing Turcotte 07:09 is beyond stupid!! I mean, Turc is one of very few younger players with an upside and he looked good tonight when he was allowed to touch the ice, still absolutely NO trust from the coach…

Nobody thought this Kings team was going to beat the Avs.
Or Vegas. Or Jets. Or Wild. I am not going to panic if/until we lose to the Penguins.

Yes, I just got done watching the recorded game. Clarke in the box was awesome. Clarke making friends eh?!?! . I loved it! Nice to see one of our players getting under the Stars of the league.
