***LA Kings @ Buffalo Sabres GDT 2/13/24 4:00pm on BSW***

Staying the obvious, but the
Kings did not look ready for the start of this game. Jet lag maybe? Perhaps food poisoning at the hotel?

Whatever's going on, it ain't good...

Possible, They partied at Iafallos place for the super bowl

 

[VCRW]

No coach is responsible for the boneheaded plays turned in by the Kings - led in incompetence by the guy with the "C", a guy with an "A", and Mikey Anderson. They all look like they had too many wings and beers at the Anchor Bar.

Should have never happened. Blatant hold on PL not called.

It kind of looked like a Dive to me as well. PL hit him up high with the stick. Did not see any contact down low. Hard to tell though

 

[ICE24]

Sorry Folks, the park's closed.

Iafallo had is Dad host them at the bar for a superbowl party. Must have spiked the punch bowl.

Hillers first in game adversity let’s see what his adjustments are since TMac never made any

 

[T]

honeymoon is over

 

[Sevenhole]

Super Bowl party hangover.

Blame Iafallo

Nice smile by 8 on the bench after that boneheaded pass. Glad he thinks losing is funny.

 

[Guinevere]

The Sabres are bamboozling the Kings with their slightly deceptive pacing and passes. LA had better catch on and stay on their toes, 'cause this could get ugly if they revert back to the same old habits that burned them when TMac was coaching them.

It’s getting ugly…

I might as well agree to this. While TMac's coaching style has admittedly worn out its welcome to his players and us fans, his firing wasn't solely the result of his methods. The players themselves are to blame for not only tuning out their coach but also playing needlessly selfish and uninspired hockey during the January stretch. This game has shown that the players still have not fully learned from their mistakes that plagued them last month. Kopitar, as great a career that he had, does not deserve to have the C slapped onto his jersey, as he's too soft to be official Kings captain.

I am still hoping he gets traded to Toronto. Drew deserves that punishment.

Kings started off behind the eight ball by letting Buffalo set the tone. And Rittich looked off. Gonna need a miracle to win this one.

 

[Rog or Reg?]

I can't believe I raced home to watch this crap. I"d rather be sitting in traffic

 

[symbology]

One of the best set ups of Drew’s career. Tape to tape perfection. So much for cleaning up the mistakes.

Pretty much this.

 

[Statue4Deano]

Carrlyn also having some real trouble in Buffalo.

 

[KHenry14]

down 3-0? And we have to watch 40 more minutes of this crap?

 

[ICE24]

How in the hell were the Kings favored in this game. Did the odds makers not see the Kings /Sabres game in LA?

 

[MiketheKing]

Garbage all the way around. When your "best players" are playing like trash, what can you expect? PLD penalty was just as dumb as Drews turnover goal.
