Barely so.

I’d prefer to see Malott sit and Turc move up to the Kopi-Kempe line. Helenius between Perry and Armia.

Exactly. Malott is an AHL-er. And Turc is wasted on Line 4. And Armia does not belong with Kopi and Juice.

321 doesn't really have that much of an impact, it's the loser point that does the most

I need you to analyze the last 10 seasons of play, and show me how it would or wouldn’t have made a difference. Pretty graphs too.

You know the spreadsheet guru in you wants to do it Jammer. It would be a great Holiday project when it’s way too cold to go outside.

I'm nearly positive there's an analytics guy that does this annually, almost none of the changes end up making big differences in the standings overall. I personally would rather go back to ties and no OT. Second choice would be 3-3 OT but with a blue line back court rule. Third choice would be how they have it now because they could always make it worse.

Kings out-Kinged the Sens, but the Caps out-Kinged the Kings. Simple as that.

The Kings game plan of boring the opposition to death seems to be working.

Not just the opposition but it is also killing us viewers! It is so incredibly boring to look at Kings games at the moment, even when they win. BORING!!!!!
