Yes and no. He is sitting at home still pissed off at Blake for sticking him with this lineup/mess. He can often crack a smile as it is no longer his headache.TMac is sitting at home and smilin...
Tonight's game in the form of a taco.
Hate to say this, but I believe this road trip is the end of the Kings playoff hopes. They certainly aren’t going to rally behind Kopi and Drew as their leaders this year. I think re-signing Kopitar at that $7 million cap hit was a worse mistake from Blake than the PLD mess.
Except either Kempe or Fiala have led the team in points all season. Kopi is becoming Handzus. I would not have gone higher than $5 million. That would free up another $5 million/season for a top 6 forward or top 4 defenseman. What’s the $3 million supposed to get you? Kopi has already been paid over $120 million in salary and bonuses. Why the excessive greed?Had discussion w coworker, was not happy that they gave kopi 7mil/yr, his argument was that he was still leading the team in scoring....
This and the PLD fiasco is a major setback.
The turnovers are exasperating from PL, Fiala and Dewey!
