They can do anything they want...if they want...
1-0 Baby....and we haven't had our 4th Line...err...the Goon Squad get on the board yet
And the goat is on the ice for the first goal. surprise surprise. TM please bench him the rest of the game.
Wolski seems to play really well against us
Doughty's having an off game (or at least off period)...if it wasn't for that bad clearing attempt...they probably would have killed that penalty...
So far the refs missed one period... If they miss another one break out the pregnancy tests...
and guess who was on the ice for their goal??I just dont understand this coach..Has he ever won a championship anywhere???
Second game, second night...
Chasing the puck, no real legs yet...
Wait and see.
Welcome back Jack, what a rocket that was
2-3-4 to 1!
Now, we're playing!
Revenge for the 6-1 whoopin' we got last time! GO KINGS GO! Put the hurt on! Keep 'em comin'!
This is fun to watch
this is what our future looks like
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! AAAAAMMMMAAAZZZIIINNNNGGGG!!! Keep shooting the puck!!
Bob Miller is going to have a raw throat after this one:
"Frolov, short side, SCORE!!"
"4 on 4 skating situation, and here's Brown, shoots, he SCORES!!"
I'll buy him some Halls.
Wow, CO is getting boat raced.
Besides the goals, it's great to see the Kings keep up the pressure like they did yesterday agaisnt the Wild. They look hungry and not satisfied with 6 goals, which is exactly how they should look. I hope this is what our future looks like.
We have the score on our side, now all we need is to see a Westgarth fight. Cmon, man, you're not gonna be here after the break!
It isn't over yet, but I want more....6-2 isn't enough...Pour it on!!!
Go Kings!
And who was on the ice for their second goal????Yea him!!!! Rich...is this the same system the Kings are using or what is happenning??This is great but i cant figure out why?? WOW is all i can say!!!
i love how the kings play with so much more confidence when they're up. it's really obvious in the way they skate and attack the puck
The colorado anouncer just said, "that's the best save I've seen on a avelanche player all season." They're really giving Quick a lot of praise.
It's funny how all the TM basher's quickly faded off this thread. 11 goals in 2 games and maybe more to come.
Anthony and Bill
God I wish Murray would quit holding our offensive capabilities back(hahaha). These are the games that keep us coming back for more. I cant imagine blowing this one.Looks good thru 2.
This is great to watch but I hope the momentum dont go away over the break........
6-3 but the Aves announcers have been real positive on Quick. Also did anyone on Center Ice watch the Denver feed pregame show where they showed Anze's home life. Real cool to do a profile on a visiting player
Yeah I saw that too, Kopitar's got his whole family living with him, It's good to have a son that's a star in the NHL.
The Kings are backing off..6-4
Ooooh... first goal that is all Quick's fault. How he responds to that is huge. Its good that he's pissed.
Hopefully they can respond with more goals quickly!
F THE AVS!
GO KINGS GO!
I don't think gauthier will be playing in the next game
Now there's the Kings I know! 6-5! Woohoo it never fails!
AHHHHHHHHHHHH
Young teams have to learn to win close games on the road...
oh boy....6 minutes...
5....
4 minutes..
The Kings are backing off..6-4
3....
Double-post. I guess I mean it twice as much. I just need any King player to knock Ryan Smyth out.
This period shows that we're still a young team, but I still believe they can win this one. Go Kings!
save by Greene...
framer31,
How long have you been watching the Kings? ;) No lead is safe, especially you have a young, inconsistent team.
Great block by Handzus late to seal the game. Shaky third, but the boys found a way to hang on. Way to get 5 out of 6 points on this trip guys!!! Enjoy your ASB.
I'm so happy the Kings dangled that game out in front of CO's noses only to deny them a comeback.
Adding to our list of things to work on:
Learning how to deal with a lead, and like TM said in the interview, shutting the other team down with it.
As they say back in Wisconsin..OH WOW! What a game, hanging on by a thread!
wow, I think I put a hole in my rug from pacing around. Quick needs to stop trying to be fancy with the puck. other than that,a good road win. what a way to go into the break.
