GDT ***Playoffs Round 1 Game 5 GDT Oilers vs. Kings 4/29/25 7:00pm on KCAL, FanDuel(?), TBS, max***

Even the TBS guys who have been around this game forever are saying they've never seen a team just simply eliminate their own fourth line and 3rd D pair. And this is just the first goddamn series! How long did Hiller think he could keep this up? The stupidity is just off the charts.
Insanity can look like genius at first then eventually people just realize that person just off the charts bananas, great job coach!
 
That was just sad. It sure didn't look like the Kings are a talented, winning team - in spite of the season record. I don't see them coming back after this crushing loss
 
I turned it off after the EN but I wish I'd have stayed to hear it.
Same here. I really wish I had the ability to not watch the next game but I know I’ll torture myself. TBH, I’m already accepting it’s over and take some joy in the possibility that Blake and Hiller may be gone when the season ends on Thursday.

I still cannot believe Byfield didn’t just chip it out. Had all the time and space and he couldn’t just chip it out.
 
Just heard Hiller press conference, something not adding up, he seems surprised over how the Oilers played, did the players just give up on him as they don't want to play for him realizing he can't coach?!!! The season exit interviews after Thursday will be interesting.
 
What was Lombardi's quote about how every team needed at least one villain, or something ...

What I also hate about this team is the total lack of fighting spirit! They just let the Oilers scumbags push them over again and again and again…

Take the Kane knee on knee hit on Kempe. That p.o.s does that to our best player and absolutely NOTHING happens!

That is so f…ing embarrassing and I feel ashamed being a Kings fan having to see that spine less behavior…
 
Why would we honestly believe Blake will get fired. How many post have we had on this page saying " when they eliminated byso and so, Blake's gonna get fired"? We just go fead and Di_kburger and we have to like it.
 
At least the Kings' futility started from puck drop, nice of them not to get our hopes up with 2 periods of quality play, followed by another disaster like the previous 3rds...As in the OT Darcy can only do so much. They look like they're done, as i can't believe they couldn't get anything going for this game unless Hiller's debacles have well and truly broken them.

I don’t actually believe he will be fired. He should have been axed ages ago. I just hope for it, like I hoped the Kings would win tonight when I was virtually certain they were going to lose.

I hate to admit it, but I’m somewhat indifferent as to whether they win or lose in Edmonton because I’m sure they’ll just crap the bed in game 7, wherein which I’ll have the joy of watching Kane or Corey Perry score the winning goal. How exciting!
 
Hiller is coaching every game likes it’s game seven of the Stanley Cup Final. It’s the first f***ing series. You can’t coach like that. Even if they win, they’re going to get swept in the next round.
 
I still cannot believe Byfield didn’t just chip it out. Had all the time and space and he couldn’t just chip it out.
That play i fear appears destined to haunt us for awhile...it seemed real that we could've swept this team, ...the challenge , the failed clear,... Watching them self-destruct on 3 of those 3rd periods... This has turned into a real nightmare.....perhaps LGK can get us a group discount therapy rate.
