WTS: Used Car Salesman - MTL 12/7

It’s remarkable too because a basic look at the data shows that the Kings are top 2 offensively and to say their game is low event is straight up ignorant.

The 1-3-1 and our version of it is very different than NJD and Detroit. We aren’t holding players up, just looking to turn it over and counter. We also forecheck like beasts when it’s viable, and we don’t dump and trap unless it’s late in games and we’re trying to ride it out.

We also score 4 goals a game.

So spot on. I can think of so many teams that truly sat back and were opportunists. The Oilers on their cup run before the lockout, the Coyotes in 2012. Just no comparison to these Kings who keep coming at teams when they attack. Can’t score 4 this often by simply playing trap and shut down.

“Their coach Todd MacL always makes me think of a koala.”

??? I need an explanation…

There is a long running joke back to his SJS days that Todd looks like a koala

^^

The other joke is he looks like Andy Serkis

I think he looks more like a koala

And this may or may not have been Todd on vacation this summer

I’ve been calling him a koala for years. Since his Sharks days. It’s a combo of his round face and waterproof hair.

I laughed too hard at just this part.
