    ~~I think Vancouver can clinch by getting a point. If they get 1, then they’ll have 99, which is the most that Minnesota and St. Louis can get.~~

    Edit: I’m an idiot.

  2. pennepasta14

    you think tocchet is motivating the boys right now saying we can clinch if we win?

  3. itspronouncedcady

    This subway commercial makes me irrationally angry.

  4. RefereeMason

    NHL App just told me the game is at end of regulation. Great app.

  5. Three analysts: “The Canucks don’t care who they play in round 1”

    David Amber: “But let’s say they care…”

    Analysts: “But they’re good so they don’t care who they get. They only play good teams”

    Amber: “But let’s say…”

  6. therealbeef

    Come out flying and get a cheap and dirty one to start here. Fuck LA!

  7. UraSnotball_

    I’ll take those shot attempt/hit differentials any day. I think we beat this team in a 7 game series with any luck.

  8. sonicdeathmonkey53

    Late goals in periods really really piss me off

  9. StuckInHoleSendHelp

    On a brighter note, I just ordered butter chicken and I’m very excited about it

  10. aristhought

    we’re in a great position for the playoffs tbh, not too stressed

  11. They stopped doing the trap? I don’t think they’re being very effective at it tonight.

  12. Frustrating to be down after the second because it looked like LA was barely clinging on for most of the period. Vancouver with pretty much all the O-Zone time through fifteen minutes.

    The Kings looked like back when the Canucks would try and defend a tie game or one goal deficit. Canucks have been the better team so far in this one, I think. Just unlucky.

  13. Hunter-Western

    When you’re fighting for every second, every inch, superior physicality matters, Joshua & Lindholm in the lineup ahead of Aman & Di Giuseppe would make a difference. We need bigger, stronger guys to keep teams honest, we’re getting outmuscled and rubbed out too easily nullifying our superior skill. Tight intense physical game.

  14. WhenInAaronRome

    I’d rather lose in 4 games to Edmonton then in 7 to LA.  

    This is one of the most boring matchups possible. 

  15. itspronouncedcady

    Some good energy in that shift. It’s fun to watch them continue to push versus turtling like they used to.

  16. If the SCF ends up being Kings-Caps, I may actually die of boredom.

  17. BryanAKADJ

    Fuck sake, Hughes is trying everything he can to get us a goal JUST SOMEONE FINISH

  18. StuckInHoleSendHelp

    Unlucky game so far but they’ve done a decent job keeping LA of their turtle/trap game.

  19. Rahtgooves

    We really need to start getting pucks to the net

  20. Brief-Astronomer2684

    Imagine being a Kings STH and having to watch this garbage style of hockey every game

  21. RelevantJackWhite

    do refs usually call the number of the player offside?

  22. GenerationEh

    I can’t imagine demoting hoglander on that line tonight. Petey hasn’t come within a 1000 miles of winning a pick battle and Boeser hasn’t either

  23. kruizer28

    I like how we’ve played tonight. Really tight game and we’ve matched the grit LA has. Games like these usually come down to special teams and bounces and that hasn’t gone our way so far but I don’t see any red flags at all tonight

  24. HeadRevolutionary410

    Top right Hughes, bottom left Myers

  25. MasterChrom

    Myers has done nothing but piss me off this game. Huggy set him up several times and all he’s done is whiff on the fucking puck.

  26. Kings just block everything. Need to take it to the net rather than trying to get a shot through.

  27. Ahh yes, who doesn’t like to reduce a game played for entertainment to a snoozefest because it’s the most efficient way to play

  28. The hate on Myers is insane. He made quite a few good defensive plays earlier in the game and broke up some good scoring chances. Yet, people only focus on him not able to get the puck on net.

  29. Bubbly-Cut8566

    Why is it that when we play the kings we get no penalty calls for us. Haven’t had a PP since 4 minutes into the first

  30. HoggyBoar

    Myers over Hronek may have cost us this game. Myers just eliminating all Hughes good work
