***San Jose Sharks vs. Los Angeles Kings GDT 1/22/24 7:30pm on BSW***

[JC6388LAKings]

Kings draw another Guppies penalty, courtesy of PLD. Come on, get another makeup goal.

 

[Liz4LA]

Come on guys, get one here.

 

[VCRW]

Once again, Kopi passed up a shot with plenty of net open.

I know everybody loves Laferriere but he is extremely limited as a player. He skates well and he plays balls out but the hockey IQ is low and he’s a below average passer. He screams 4th liner. I can’t wait until Arvidsson is back.

Who loves him? He's mediocre.
The Kings used to have the best top 9 in the NHL. Then Blake traded that away to get PLD.

 

[ChiKingFan]

Laffy should not be on that unit.

 

[Liz4LA]

Bad time management there.

 

[JC6388LAKings]

End of 2nd. LA let the Guppies take over and allowed 2 goals. But then, TO makes up for the Kings' miscues with a timely late period goal. Unfortunately, LA continues to be hit-or-miss on the PP. The 3rd period is now shaping to be really important for LA as they can't afford to let this game slip away.

 

[VCRW]

Drew is having another one of those "questionable decision" games. He and Spence have both been real sloppy with the puck tonight trying to force plays.

 

[Statue4Deano]

Laffy should not be on that unit.

If Fagemo can do anything 5 on 5 that spot on the PP is his but so far he can’t even find room to shoot.

 

[bbfrc77]

I’m sorry but can you screw up a PP with momentum any worse?

 

[hokiecat]

Laffy should not be on that unit.

Who would you play instead? Kings right handed forwards are Fagemo, Kaliyev, Lewis, and Laf. Horrible job of roster management

I do. At least way more than Fagemo, JAD, Grundstrom and Arty. He's a rookie just learning to be a pro.

Once again, Kopi passed up a shot with plenty of net open.

I was actually typing to post… an old complaint shoot the puck Kopi! By my count three times in this game. I’m just exhausted commenting on it.

Kaliyev is not right-handed. So there is actually one fewer rightie than you think...

What's your point? He's 22 yrs old and he makes a 10th as much has PLD.

 

[Statue4Deano]

He’s getting too much ice time and he cost the team a goal. That’s the point.

 

[Sevenhole]

Just wish about five more shots by the kings were top shelve like the one from TO.

 

[Statue4Deano]

I really hope Blake holds onto Clarke. I’d be shocked if he doesn’t turn into a special player at the NHL level.

Took them 30 minutes but they finally started to aim high. Hopefully they keep firing them in the 3rd.

Agree but the question will be how many skating scoring Dmen do you need? Englund has been a great addition but how do you not have Roy on the roster
