you're on! meet me behind the gym after 8th period.

Kings start slow and give up first goal. Not a repeat.

Thankfully they have come back to take the lead.

As I say that they decide to give Kane an unobstructed break on goal.

[Thomas]

Those whispers of the Blackhawks quitting on Q don't seem to be wrong.

[Thomas]

Well that third period could have gone better.

[Angel Oracle]

About that last 12 minutes against a BADDDD Hawks team?

What was THAT?????????

I thought there was enough experience on this team to avoid total meltdowns like that?

[Angel Oracle]

Why are the Kings better on the road this season?    I thought Staples Center was a loud place normally?

Sorry about that. Hope tonight helps

Yeah, it's cool.

One 3rd period meltdown against the down Blackhawks away from an extended winning streak

Let's continue the good times and get 2nd place in the Pacific Division.

[Tank]

We've won 8 in a row at home against the Caps. I'll take it.

i haven't seen Ovechkin play in person so I bought a ticket for last night. Within half an hour after purchase I was hit with the flu and had to stay home.

[Tank]

holy cats, what in the world happened today against st. louis?

[disarcina]

TANK --- here's what happened -- our LA Kings really TANKED.

Geez -- and I was just getting over that recent awful loss to the Blackhawks at Staples when the Kings melted down in the third period.

The meltdown today was Periods One, Two and Three.

This team may NOT be a playoff team after all.

Today was awful.

Why do they struggle at Staples Center this season (17-13-3), but are 20-13-2 on the road????

I had a chance to go to the game last night. I passed. We suck so much at home. I was there for the Chicago meltdown and sat in the hawks shoot twice side. It was brutal.

[Angel Oracle]

That was more like it!    I was there last night.     Still a few too many shots allowed in periods 2 and 3, but Quick was Quick. 

[Thomas]

 Yes yes Kings. I know you guys hate boring games. But you don't have to spot them three goals all the time. Just win it in OT please?

[Thomas]

That extra point would have been nice...

[nando714]

Another goal taken away. Puck crosses, doughty PUSHED into the net and no goal. Absolute BS again. 

I’ll take the point after the slow start but hosed again by the officials. What’s new 

please sweep these next 2 at home before a tough 4 game roadie next week and 3/4 are playoff contenders. 

[Angel Oracle]

What's gotten into the Yotes?    11-3-2 in their past 16 games? 

[Thomas]

LA Kings today announced a new "motivational" coach

 

Though seriously, don't mess around tonight with Detroit. Just a nice boring win. Pretty please?

I’m going tonight and Saturday. They usually suck when I attend. Sorry in advance 

[Thomas]

[Angel Oracle]

They swept Detroit's leg pretty nicely in the 3rd period.

Season defining road trip .
