How can you not watch Olympic hockey? It's pretty much the best hockey you'll ever get to see. Watching the Kings after that is like walking out of the Sistine Chapel and stepping in a fresh, steaming pile of dog sh*t.
Honesty it has a lot to do with the weird start times and how busy I am.

I try to prioritize King's hockey games, but even then I end up missing a few here and there

I barely had time to even see the results of any Olympic events. It's nothing short of a miracle I even knew USA and Canada were playing in the final. i set my alarm literally 4 hours before the game. I had no idea game 7 was coming up, or who was playing. But I can wholeheartedly say I'm very happy I woke up in time and saw the game.

But I'll always hate an Olympic break in the middle of my hockey season.
 
Tonight will be 5 losses in a row with the last 4 being Divisional losses. It took 9 losses in 10 games (or was it 10 of 11) before Todd was let go. But this team looks even more defeated and inept than Todd’s group.
 
To be fair to the Kings if it wasn't for Keumper earlier in the season, the Kings would have been eliminated by December. They lasted all the way until early February so that is an accomplishment.
 
Both olympians out not to return today, Armia and Doughty. With Fiala out for the season, the olympics really did do a number on the Kings.
I’m very nervous of that narrative (though true). That’s the kind of narrative that could keep a Lot of people employed who definitely shouldn’t be.
