***LA Kings vs. Chicago Blackhawks GDT 11/2/24 >>1:00pm<< on FanDuel***

At least Big Dave say would have attempted a poke check not just lay down on the ice and let them Slide the puck easily past you.

At least we know now, going to shoot out to certain death with Darcy in net
 
Kings are unable to close out games. Remember Vegas scored 2 goals late in the 3rd. Luckily the Kings were up big or that could have gone sideways. SJ scored 2 late to make it interesting in their first matchup. This is embarrassing. One of the worst teams in the NHL came back late in the 3rd on the road and beat the Kings in OT.
 
The guy seems to be in a funk of sorts. Many times he tries the cute play instead of just straight ahead hockey. Like, he is trying to make the highlight reel every time. Hope that he extracts his head soon, the Kings need him. We all need him.
He seems to be a victim of his own good press. Shows he still has some growing up to do. Hope QB gets back to the simpler, north/south, more physical game he showed us last season.

He has no shot confidence. I see his skating and physicality but it's like he's afraid of the stick.
 
LOL

Once again I race down the hill to watch the Kings blow a 3rd period lead and lose in OT. It's like Deja Vu all over again.

So my hockey buddy calls after the game and asks what's wrong with Byfield. I told him I hadn't seen enough games this season to form an opinion. He said he had a four-word opinion:

"Complete and total regression"

I think that's a bit extreme...it's WAY to early in the season...but I do see a profound lack of confidence in his play. Not sure what the answer is, but Byfield's having a rough go so far. Before he got off the phone, he said Byfield has 2 goals in the past 45 games. Is this true?

Wow.

I was expecting him to take it to the next level and become elite. 2 goals in 45 games is as far from elite as it gets. You'd think he'd accidentally score 2 goals in 45 games.
