***LA Kings vs. Ottawa Senators GDT 11/30/24 >>4:00pm<< on KCAL Ch9 (& Spanish radio)***

[Sevenhole]

Missed the first period.
I was hanging upside down in a tree.

I'm going to enjoy this game more than any game I've ever seen in my life.
Not to get into personal stories but this is one worth telling. I should be dead. I fell off of a cliff today and ended up 25 ft down hanging upside down in a tree with both my dogs hanging in the tree on their leashes.
This was witnessed by five college kids, all athletes, and their equally athletic girlfriends, who formed a human chain down the mountainside and pulled me out of the tree then rescued my dogs. This happened two hours ago. If those college kids hadn't witnessed my fall I still be up there in the tree hanging upside down at least 40 ft down to the next switch back, a sheer drop into space.
I'm a little bruised and battered and scratched up but it's nothing short of a miracle I'm alive. I owe my life to those kids.
I wasn't planning on having a drink tonight. That game plan has been altered

Brother, if you need anything, let me know. I know I’m a distance away but seriously if you want to reward those kids for saving you, let me know.

 

[Nyssa42]

Ugh. I hate these afternoon games!!

 

[JC6388LAKings]

Ottawa takes the lead. Eck. There was a deflection on that shot that befuddled Dave.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

Fiala scores! Redemption from earlier! Game is tied again 2-2. And it's an unassisted goal.

 

[Sevenhole]

Fiala doing the right thing

 

[VCRW]

Okay… that really helps. Need Fiala to contribute positively. Thank you.

 

[Halfwall]

I almost posted earlier this is going to end up another wild Kings/Sens game.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

Helenius uses his big body and checks a Sens player in the O-zone.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

LA on the PP again as Ottawa is called for too many men on the ice. It's time to get that lead back, Kings.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

LA always seems to try and look for the perfect shot while on the PP. They're now 0 for 2. The Kings need to stop fooling around in the O-zone and shoot more often.

Oh you wanted a goal? I'm happy that they actually got it set up.

 

[VCRW]

PP is perimitized again… Can we go back to 5 forwards now? And why didn’t Byfield shoot from 12 feet away?

 

[Sevenhole]

I still like Clark sitting at the top of the power-play rather than the five forwards

 

[JC6388LAKings]

BSD again. Tkachuk's goal attempt was denied.

I think we can agree that no matter who’s out there somebody needs to shoot the puck instead of making it a passing drill

Isn't that why he's here? I don't get the 5 forward thing at all.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

2nd period is over. Both teams traded goals as the game remains tied at 2 goals each. It looked like it was going to be a repeat of their last meeting a month ago, but fortunately, it didn't turn into a crazy goal-scoring bananza. But the Kings better regain their form and try to gain the lead back in the next 20 minutes.

 

[KHenry14]

another even period

 

[orpheus]

I am sorry I am late! I was eluding the Martians!

 

[VCRW]

Byfield tried a make-a-wish pass instead of challenging/surprising Forsberg with a clear shot from the right side with all that traffic in front. Bad angle be damned…
