***Dallas Stars vs. LA Kings GDT 3/9/24 7:30pm on KCAL Ch9***

[Statue4Deano]

Period 1 was a bend don’t break 20 minutes for the Kings.

Kings need to slow the Stars down in the 2nd. More faceoffs. More board work. More muck and grind. Safe plays and keep it simple and wait for the Stars overplay their hand. Use their aggression against them. Counter attack with speed. Get your shots on net. Looking at you Kopitar.

 

[Liz4LA]

Nice to be up in the game. Kings should of capitalized on those power plays.

 

[Guinevere]

We survived the first period. Whew! C’mon Kings, let’s get a forecheck going and some o zone time in the 2nd!

 

[Statue4Deano]

How long until Robertson is a UFA? Come home, Jason.

 

[Guinevere]

I am aware that Kempe is a game time decision....but I'm gonna just leave him out of the lineup so that he'll be good to go and end up scoring at least 2 goals....

For the Americans, I'll go with 4 or 5 points

GWG in the 3rd. (please.....I have to get up extra early tomorrow in addition to the time change!)

You gotta live in AZ, we never have a time change. . Was a bit hard getting used too! Never lose an hour sleep though!

 

[Halfwall]

DD lollygagging with the puck.

 

[Nyssa42]

That was fiala and he had no choice since the puck could have gone into the net.

Ah. Spence does it all the time, though. He did it on that same play

 

[katydid213]

Kings might as well be sitting up in the stands, watching the game as they are

 

[MiketheKing]

Kempe dangerously rusty tonight

 

[JC6388LAKings]

Kings called for a tripping penalty. Second PK for them. Don't let Dallas take over and tie it.

 

[Halfwall]

Fully expecting a tip in goal here.

 

[MiketheKing]

We're so slow to make any decisions

 

[VCRW]

Kings are making far too many bad decisions in the d-zone. Hiller may need to call an early time out if this onslaught continues much longer.

If there's any hesitation at this point just dump it out without icing that little flippy move all day because our passing is atrocious in our own Zone

 

[VCRW]

Talbot and Gavrikov have been the 2 best players tonight. Hope the rest of the team can elevate their game.

 

[Halfwall]

Great kill!

 

[JC6388LAKings]

Kings with a good kill.

 

[hornman]

Wow Dallas really struggled with that power play.

 

[Statue4Deano]

Significantly better 2nd period.

I like PL as well.
