O'Sullivan needs to learn a new move!! He's tried that same stupid move in the last 4 shootouts, AND on his breakaway in OT tonight and has only scored once! IT DOESN'T WORK PATRICK!! GET SOMETHING NEW!!!!!

Other than that Quick played great, and woudldn't you know, stopped all the shots that were going top shelf. I told you guys he isn't weak upstairs, ALL goalies get scored on up high, it just stands out with Quick because you're looking for it every time one happens to beat him.

And please anthony, give TM some props for his choices in the shootout, because we all know if Johnson and Doughty missed, you would be calling for him to get fired, calling him old, stupid, whatever....show us you can give credit where credit is due, and not just dish out trash after a loss....

Great game by everyone on the Kings tonight! You can see the desire to win for each other on their faces and by their reactiond (ie: Army getting stopped on that shot from in tight late in the 3rd).

I have a feeling we are going to have a strong road trip again and climb back into this thing. Looks like the schedule down the strectch worked in our favor with all the road games.
