This team is LOST!!!!!
They are beating themselves every game…. It’s painful to watch….

Huh, Goaltending.
Need I say more.

Amazing how 4 minutes cost the Kings this game, 2 in the beginning and 2 at the end. Great effort in the 2nd and 3rd periods. Credit to Dustin Brown, absolutely awesome, gutsy move coming back after injuring his shoulder....Again, my favorite for Kings MVP, he's playing out of this world right now and showing the team some real spunk. Credit to Rob Blake too for finally playing how we're used to seeing him playing. He's now got some pop on that heavy shot of his from the blueline, obviously feeling better from the hip surgery which prevented him from leaning into his shot. Good effort overall but in the end it was wasted.

Whoa....Blake's interview at the end....Was he pissed off or what??!!

kings suck

Don't you think Crawford would try a different strategy on the PK after 1.5 years of total suckage? The Kings are now below 78% on the PK with Crawford as the coach, worst in the NHL.

I'm tired of watching the veterans make bonehead mistakes and then having to hear about how we're a young team and still learning how to win. Veterans were singlehandedly responsible for the first 2 Calgary goals. At least. If Blake's gonna come out after the last game and rag on the team, then he needs to come out after this game and apologize. And don't even get me started on Lubo in the last 60 seconds of the game. Talk about giving up.

Words cannot express this bull****, but I'll try.

Jason plays like a wall instead of a sponge and gives up WAY too many rebounds. Aubin can't play like either one of those and just gives goals up while gettin paid to do 'Yo Mama' commercials for Mountain Dew. I'm ready to lose a year of Bernier's contract/RFA/UFA status, whatever, to bring him up now. Let him play this year to get some real NHL time in for next year. 5 games did wonders for Jack Johnson, what would 40 games do for Jonathon? I'm ready to take that plunge.

Our offense is truly unbeatable when they are firing on all cylinders. Reminds me of the 41 games of dominance the LAPD line had (Palffy, Allison, Deadmarsh). Sully, Kopitar, Brown is our first line for the next 10 years. Cammi should be our 2nd line leader or trade him for a goalie. (Yeah, I said it...) My fear is the frustration those offensively gifted players have right now will lead them to want to leave LA and leave us high and dry for another 12 years.

The following needs to happen NOW:

-Fire Crawford. While everything is not his fault, 60% at least is and that's too much for me. Line changes galore, system over creativity, no continuity, no motivation. 1.5 years is enough to know he doesn't fit.

- J. Bernier up NOW! Radical move? Yes. Show these 2 crackers attempting to play in net at the NHL level that they are about to be one-upped by a 19 year old who could smoke their salmon with his glove behind his back. Let 'em fight for the backup job where they can't hurt us. Prime this kid up NOW for NEXT season.

- Brown gets the 'C' NOW! Blake being upset tonight is about 20 games too late. He is playing better, so give him an 'A' but prime Dustin this year with the captaincy. He deserves it. His return to the bench tonight after that spill shows it. THAT is the pride I want my team to have. Brown 'C', Blake 'A', Cammi OR Sully 'A'.

Things that need to happen SOON!:

- Stuart is trade bait. He let 2 passes to him at the point get by him with NOBODY AROUND HIM WHATSOEVER that f-ed up 2 good opportunities to set up in the o-zone. He's not accomplishing what we paid him to do. GONE,

- Preissing gone too. Dude is lazy on the backcheck, weak on the blueline, why did we get him again??? In the interview between periods, he says "It's FUN to challenge yourself against the best in the NHL to see what you're made of". HOW ABOUT BEING THE BEST IN THE NHL AND LETTING PEOPLE CHALLENGE YOU!!!! Wrong mentality for this team. Gone.

- Thornton, Dallman, Willsie, replaced with Moulson, (Piskula or Petiot) and Tukonen.

- MAYBE Army replaced by Boyle. Let Brian stay at center and let him play the 3rd line. Imagine the monster he could become in that position 2 years from now. Make Boyle work with Frolov on how to hold onto the puck in the o-zone.

- I even think we need a 2nd cementhead like Westgarth, but with all the talent we have that I believe is ready to come up, there's no immediate room for him.

- Modry stays (He's been pretty solid for once.) Blake stays at 1.5 mil 1 year deal, otherwise move on and go get a free agent D stud for 4-5 mil.

I could go on but why? That's plenty for this season alone. Posting here is a good way to relieve the stress of having your team SUCK for years, but it's wearing thin. I'm not leaving, but a new outlet (Like moves that make sense) would be nice.

It's time for DL to get off the airplane food and sit at his desk and make some decisions at home.

The open netter wasn't Lubo's fault....He was dead ass tired because Crow had his best players out there for almost the entire last two minutes....Talk about long shifts....He should have made one more shift change. LaBarbara was pulled with 1:39 left; when Lubo got the puck I thought "Uh oh"....He had nothing left in the tank. My eleven year old could have taken the puck from him at that point. Poor bench management but again, we don't exactly have a lot to draw from. Still, two 50 second shifts instead of one long 1:39 would have been better. Again, it didn't matter; boneheaded mistakes and penalties killed them in the end. This was another game they could have and should have won, especially after the way they came out flying in the 2nd period and caught the Flames.
