Any chance Copley beats out, Forsburg?
GKG 🥅
I’m pretty certain denault wants out because of hillers awful only play defense strategy. He goes up against the other teams best so because hiller doesn’t like to win 5-4 6-5 even 4-3 and would rather loose every game 2-1 because hiller doesn’t care about winning only defensive stats ,of course denault has no goals , he has to wait for the best of the opposition to make a mistake before he can even consider goin* OFFENCE . I would fire hiller ! Keep denault ,DEFINITELY FIRE THE ASSISTANT FOACHES AND PP COACH IF YOU CAN EVEN CALL HIM THAT , and hire someone who lets them p,ay hockey battle for 50-50 pucks even 30-70 pucks ,cycle , 3 forechechers , defense pinching all the time ! Hit the opponent every time it’s the right play etc. pla6 to win ! Regardless the score !
Id keep PD if possible he’s a scorer in the playoffs and great in the dot
Fantastic show so far Eddie. Thanks a lot
14-9-9 right now, if they go 17-11 in the next 28 games they would be 31-20-9 after 60 games that would be the exact same record they had the had last year after 60 games when they ended up with 105 point The most points in franchise history So all you doom and gloomers be patient we are very early in the season not time to panic.
They need to just change the system ! If that’s takes hiring all coaches fine , if all the stay coaches and change the system fine . THE SYSTEM SUCKS !
It’s the system Eddie ! It’s not just denault ,the entire team is disgruntled! They are not allowed to go on OFFENCE !
PD wants out because he hates the style of play and the coaching staff. Hillar sucks and has lost the team Eddie. The
Everything I've heard or seen is this danault trade is poppy cock. Neither him or his camp has asked out.
A player trade is not what’s going to help this team. They just need a new head coach with a better system. With all his experience, I can’t believe Ken Holland doesn’t see this.
#FireLuc/Holland/HillerASAP!!
FIRE HILLER
The issue with the Kings is COACHING!! its funny, there is another team (Detroit) who were horrible 1 1/2 years ago and this year seem to be in 1st place, and I'm sorry but they don't have superstars on their team. Look at the Ducks, are you kidding me? why are the quacks in 1st place?? its coaching!
The kings made too many stupid mistakes in the last offseason signing aging defenseman when they should of got some scoring help
Fire Hiller is the only thing that makes sense now
Denault knows the system is broken Eddie! They’re doing the same thing from last year if not more defensive with slower defensive players. You can hear it in his voice/comments whenever he is interviewed, he’s upset with the boring style of play. HILLERS SYSTEM SUCKS.
Trades won’t help. Coaching change won’t help. Luc and everyone else in management needs to go or nothing will change. THEY are the problem.
Hmmmmm…..Danault wants out……Gavrikov wanted out….Spencer wanted out…..Marner didn't want in….Kopi is leaving…..I think I see a pattern developing…….
Mark Walter please buy the Kings 🙏
Don't worry, these next 2 games they have in hand will be losses so the sharts will move ahead of them just like the soilers have done and the playoffs will be close to being gone! But do we really care? They have no chance of winning crap with this team!
OK BOARING is what describes this Kings team by many Kings fans and fans around the NHL also by sports podcasts! Sadly this Kings team and system are truly BOARING! Luc Robitaille is actually the main problem! Ken Holland is slow on decisions and looks like a mistake! Jim Hiller with some of the coaching staff need to GO NOW!!!!!
Hiller is not the guy. The Kings need to miss the post season.
