Lychees Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 They recently beat the Oilers 8-2 Just arrogance that the Kings could beat the lowly Oilers, and/or the Oilers would take the McDavid route too. I would love if Calgary beat LA and we renewed a playoff rivalry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William_Clarkson Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Their game against Calgary will determine whether they still have a shot at the playoffs. Still, never have I been so happy Edmonton won. Same thing if Calgary beats them...I'm sure if I looked back though there was another more important game one of them had to win for Vancouver's benefit.

Pimp C Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Hilarious. No playoffs for them. &^@# those cock sucking piece of $&!#s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 it was a calculated risk that the Kings were willing to take. I also believe Darryl Sutter's goalie scheuld have already been pre determined that Martin Jones plays against Edmonton and why not? L.A has been badly beating these guys the past 3 seasons, it's not even close. Heck I would have expected a domination, but hey. lol they lost.

theminister Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Flames are going to beat them. Back to back games of cheering for the Oilers and Flames. Never say never, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benchsplinters Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I'm not too surprised by the decision to start Jones. The Kings probably figured they'd steamroll the Oilers again, hahaha, it backfired and now they're on the brink. Probably thought they had a good chance to beat Edmonton with Jones. Their big game is against Calgary after getting beaten by the Canucks. They need to beat Calgary and if Quick is better rested, he is the guy for that game. Personally, I would rather meet Calgary in the playoffs. Some how the Kings are a team i worry about more because they know how to get it done in the playoffs. The playoffs are a new season; now you see the grit and will to win come to the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMorrison 7 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Daryl sutter isn't that good of a coach, everyone thinks he some sort of genious but in reality he's not. When he coached the flames he didn't do anything their and got lucky with a really good kings team. Not to mention he did terrible when he coached the SJ sharks.

hsedin33 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 This. Honestly, the Kings expected Martin Jones to play better than that. In today's NHL, you need backups that can step up and win games (example: E.Lack) The Kings were gifted a freebie at centre ice by Bachman, who also looked quite shaky at times. This was LA's game to lose and they didn't work hard enough to get it to OT. I will say that Drew Doughty was impressive tonight, and it's obvious to me why LA has two Cups in three seasons when they have a defenseman like Doughty in their lineup. He's the best defenseman in the league IMO. If I had first pick for a Stanley Cup dream team draft, he's the first person I would take. He's nothing short of absolutely amazing. You can have drew poughty, I'll take shae weber thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can throw his tenure with the Hawks into your list as well. He's not a bad coach, but there are much better coaches out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboose Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I don't think he was looking to start Quick for what I think was a 16th straight game? Back to back too. It was the right call, just didn't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 They're a horrible team. The nhl did their best to fix most of their games all year and they still can't make the playoffs. Mitchell was their leader. LA is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedintwinpowersactivate Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Tough call to leave your best goalie on the bench with the season on the line. I guess hindsight is 20/20. Good on the Oilers... full deserving of the win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Most coaches, if you're playing a team that a week before you clobbered 8-2 and it's the second of a back-to-back would have put in the backup goalie. Are people saying that it's our coaches fault when he put in Markstrom and he got shelled? We needed the two points at the time too. I understand the hate for LA. But to blame Bridge Troll for playing his backup against one of the worst teams in the NHL is plain stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Zamboni Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Simply put, he Pete Carrol'd it. it was head scratcher for sure. the game against the Flames on Thurs will be LA's most important game of the season. cant believe i have to cheer for the Flames.....not that i would take them[flames] lightly in the playoffs but i really want to see LA miss the the post season....that will make me very happy! go flames go?? ewww, but yeah!
