You’re quoting something from November?

Of course, I saw this coming from that far away.

Vegas or Edmonton tonight. Who we got? I think Edmonton wins.

Picture this: it comes down to the Kings last game against EDM, they win they make it in, they lose they don’t. Knoblach sits McDavid, Ekholm, Bouchard, Hyman, Nugent-Hopkins and plays Nurse 30 minutes that game. Swayman finally gets a start again.

Ah nuts. You’re right - they have three games after EDM. Thought experiment, or joke, over.

I just hope the Ducks hold on and finish first so it stays Vegas vs. Edmonton in Round 1.

 

[The Nuts]

A playoff spot was just sitting there for the Kigs but now the Preds have charge up the rear and gone on a tear.
Exactly what the Kigs could not due without Fiala and Kuz.

Preds lost ,Utah lost,Vegas lost and
Sharks too
LMAO Mcdavid is right ,it's a pillow fight

 

[Hockey53]

With the score tied at 2-2 late in the third period #71 of the Preds took an undisciplined slashing penalty which led to a Devils PPG and 3-2 lead and a 4-2 win in regulation.That penalty took the Preds out of at least getting a point in the game.The Oilers won in OT vs Vegas 4-3.
The updated WC2/3rd place in the Pacific Division race on Thursday 3/26/26,has the Kings 1 point behind the Preds(who play the Habs in Montreal on Saturday,and 3 points behind Vegas(who play the Caps on Saturday)for third place in the Pacific Division.The Kings play Utah at home on Saturday.

Petition to make "Girls just wanna have fun" our playoff fight song. If we make it. Let's steer into it.

 

[Hockey53]

The Kings had the opportunity to move into the WC 2 spot by 1 point since the Preds lost in regulation,an opportunity to move 2 points behind Utah for the WC1 spot,now the Kings are 6 points out,and better yet,tie Vegas at least for 3rd in the Pacific Division until Vegas gained a point from their game vs the Caps,to move 3 points ahead of the Kings for 3rd in the Pacific Division.But instead,the Kings players and thier coaching staff decided not to show up and got blown out 6-2 vs the Utah Mammoth.
As of Saturday 3/28/26,here is the updated version of the WC2/3rd place in the Pacific Division standings:

I said it before and I'll say it again. The playoff race is going to come down to which teams show that they want it less.
