The LA Kings Hire Peter Laviolette as Head Coach | Instant Reaction 👀

1. Great hire. 🎉. Lfg. #GoKingsGo

2. I just realized that Jesse and Zack are real life Bunson and Beaker.

3. What are they going to do with the blue line as assembled. Peter's style is vastly different than "kings" hockey of the last decade.

4. If the Kings can't find a 2C for whatever reason, why not try Turcotte at it? At least for 10-15 games.

5. Asking for more offense from players that play in a defense system is a level of hyperbole i havent seen in a while. Expecting Laf to go from 20 to 30 goals is tone deaf and doesnt take into account he was predominately a 3rd line winger. Asking Q to create more offense when he was tasked with being a shut down Center. Completely unrealistic offensive outputs from players that have never shown it yet in their careers.

6. Great hire for sure!
   However I disagree with the conversation about the goaltending. I think it is Forsberg’s net as of now.
   Obviously as the season gets closer, it may change but going into the season…Forsberg is the guy.

7. Do not be surprised if Phil Housley joins as well
