GDT ***Playoffs Rd 1, Gm 4 GDT - LA Kings @ Edmonton Oilers 4/27/25 >>6:30pm<< on TBS, tru, max & FanDuel***

Now here's the 3rd period for Game 4. Don't screw up this time, Hiller. Keep having your lines to be more aggressive on O. Don't give any hopes of a Deadmonton comeback here.
 
Love the scoring from the middle 6 guys tonight. Oilers have been focusing on shutting down Kempe and Kuzmenko tonight. Kings are taking advantage with the Phil and Q lines. Well played so far. GKG!!!
I always thought that would be our advantage. One line has to go up against their big line. Maybe 2 if they separate 97 & 29. But that leaves a line they can’t match.
 
For a seasoned veteran Kopi has made some head-scratching decisions so far in this game... multiple times... to be honest these are plays I expect to see from a rookie.

He's taking WAY too many risks with his passes. Gambling-wise, Kopi and Hiller are attached at the hip. Riverboat Gamblers. Sometimes they end up in the Mississippi..

...but, all-in-all, I love our approach! However, there is a fine line between being aggressive and being stupid.

Be smart Kings, and we come back to LA up at 3-1.
The Mississippi - HA!

There was a time on that third PP also when there was like one Oiler way in front of the net. Kopi got the puck and could have skated in quickly for a bad angle shot, but, he would have been pretty uncontested. Worth a shot.

Instead he waited for all the Kings to show up and the Oilers too.

But yes, otherwise this is a well balanced aggression from the team on the whole.
