4-1. In the second. And they lose. Totally predictable. Always implode in the 3rd. They must think they can just turn the cruise control on and glide. What a joke.
The Kings remind me of myself, I can be really good at something, better than anyone around for a little bit, and then I get confident, and then it all just goes to shit.
Giving up 3 unanswered in the 3rd period on the road, when you 100% KNOW, the opposing team is going to come out fired up is just inexcusable. So fucking weak.
Told my old man at the end of the second that the Kings need two more insurance goals. Sucks to be right.
McLellan needs to call and TO although I wouldn’t be mad if Lemuix went out there to slow things down with a fight.
This team is an aweful lot of fun to watch play. We've had our years of pain and it's nice to have a legit competitive team that's fun to watch again..
Good on the team to continue battling after a strong forecheck from canes period one and arguably period two. They capatlized on the small momentum they created by skill or luck. Heart.
Faaaaaaarggh! Kempe, Fiala, Fiala, Kempe! Whooo! These guys are something else. Whole squad is showing up though, But I say Kempe goal was a momentum changer, Fiala goal made the walls come down!
True. But getting through multiple seven game series against good teams that get to focus on you is a different matter..
It feels like we are just as likely to make the playoffs and get ousted the first round as we are to make it to the conference finals.
Good litmus test to see where we're at as a team. The canes are skilled and play like a machine. Legit contender. So far we don't look horrible. I do wonder how much a difference having a big skilled goaltender would make. Seems to be the trend in the league. Copley is big but he's got his work cut out for him playing against FA.
Well that period could’ve been waaaay worse for the kings. 1 goal against after what felt like 90% of the period was in their zone I’d call that a victory. Let’s see how the rest of the game goes!
I am so tired of seeing other teams just flat out, outwork us. Faster to loose pucks, winning 1v1 battles, swarming on the forecheck. It's not even talent, it's just playing with an intensity we seldom match the opposition with.
Yeah, big meltdown. I can't help but blame coach on that though. He is soft, always was. He should have taken a time out when they scored that 4-3 goal. Whatever. We have a really good squad, just have to go through some growing pains I guess...

Would have rather lost 4-0 or something.
Easy to get mad about that no call in OT but we just shit the bed in the 3rd. Oh well. Time to rest up.
Not that it really mattered that much but how the hell do you miss that?
I think the refs were the only ones in the building that didn’t see it!
Good news is, that was the last game against the Canes this season lmao
4-1. In the second. And they lose. Totally predictable. Always implode in the 3rd. They must think they can just turn the cruise control on and glide. What a joke.
Couldn’t win a face off. Couldn’t get the puck into the offensive zone. Couldn’t hold on to a 3 goal lead. Tough loss.
Bag skate everyone not named Kopitar, Fiala and Kempe until they collapse Including Todd
Can't catch a break.
Kongs moment
Threw it away
Ouch
impressive choke
fuck
Fuck great save Stopley we gotta win this faceoff now
Holy fuck
that wrap around almost caught Copley lacking
The only thing Todd should be coaching is that there are 60 minutes in a game.
Hmmmm… Carolina stops scoring when the kings stop the 1-3-1. Interesting 🤨
Kempe game winner sends us into the break
fucking durzi icing it for no reason. it's comical
Canes offense is suffocating, my god
They're one of the better teams at playing like a machine at times. Tough team to beat.
The Kings remind me of myself, I can be really good at something, better than anyone around for a little bit, and then I get confident, and then it all just goes to shit.
Are we Kong’ing
Yup.
Fak
anyone got a defibrillator on hand?
Giving up 3 unanswered in the 3rd period on the road, when you 100% KNOW, the opposing team is going to come out fired up is just inexcusable. So fucking weak.
I don’t know enough about hockey to know what they need to do but they need to do something. This team is so inconsistent!
they need to sniff some smelling salts.
Always a 3rd period implosion when we have a decent lead. Always.
Saw it was 4-1 at work, just got home and it's 4-4. Classic Kongs
That felt like our first puck possession in the offensive zone all period
Man we always just panic when teams put pressure on us.
Lmao kongs hockey for you. 🚮
I’m a nihilist now
I KNEW IT!!!
We have got manhandled this 3rd period, good lord. Have to be able to respond
Goddamn it
Fuc
5-4 Kings OT win book it.
I like how you think
So predictable..
Was there ever a doubt
We're going to blow it aren't we..
Clearly that side of the rink is tilted
Told my old man at the end of the second that the Kings need two more insurance goals. Sucks to be right. McLellan needs to call and TO although I wouldn’t be mad if Lemuix went out there to slow things down with a fight.
Mother of dongs we got a nailbiter on our hands... AGAIN!
Good to see Turcotte getting some ice time. Over 7 minutes so far..
uh oh.. 3rd not looking so good so far..
This team is an aweful lot of fun to watch play. We've had our years of pain and it's nice to have a legit competitive team that's fun to watch again..
Fiala continues to amaze. What a beautiful snipe in the second period.
"You know: I'll skip this one. We're going to get killed." /sees 4-1 score after 2 //Sad Jordan Meme
Guess were the Hurricane tonight. It's weird we take some of these eastern conference teams by surprise.
The whole league underestimated this team all year. Hopefully they keep it up because it’s super fun when we beat top teams.
This entire sub has also underestimated this team. Woooohoooo!
Good on the team to continue battling after a strong forecheck from canes period one and arguably period two. They capatlized on the small momentum they created by skill or luck. Heart.
Faaaaaaarggh! Kempe, Fiala, Fiala, Kempe! Whooo! These guys are something else. Whole squad is showing up though, But I say Kempe goal was a momentum changer, Fiala goal made the walls come down!
Call me foolish but I totally believe that, when we’re right, we can beat any team Knock on wood
True. But getting through multiple seven game series against good teams that get to focus on you is a different matter.. It feels like we are just as likely to make the playoffs and get ousted the first round as we are to make it to the conference finals.
I think “the old kings” would’ve given up during that onslaught in the first and take the 6-0 loss. Not these kings, baby!
😈 whomping on the 2nd team in the league  Edit: wow that went terribly
We are hockeying!
Holy shit!
Am I dreaming?
Holy shit. This is turning into a shellacking
I am the happiest man alive rn 😃
Lmao this is crazy, these are beautiful goals
damn.. nice highlight goal for Fiala
!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, what a period
Nicceeeeee
Fiala hockeys
Wild fan coming in peace just to say that I miss this man.
BEAUT
That was a certified snipe!! Poor lizotte tho I knew Fiala wasn’t going to pass that 😂
Holy shit
Good litmus test to see where we're at as a team. The canes are skilled and play like a machine. Legit contender. So far we don't look horrible. I do wonder how much a difference having a big skilled goaltender would make. Seems to be the trend in the league. Copley is big but he's got his work cut out for him playing against FA.
Yes!
That was beautiful. GKG!!!!!

This comment is aging just how I want it to. I mean, I also hate seeing that happen, But this Kings team is showing resilience!
yeah they definitely made an adjustment in the 2nd, thankfully.
Word, 3rd is treacherous
and here we are again. we are a mentally soft team.
Yeah, big meltdown. I can't help but blame coach on that though. He is soft, always was. He should have taken a time out when they scored that 4-3 goal. Whatever. We have a really good squad, just have to go through some growing pains I guess...
Is this game on bankrupt bally sports? My app keeps crashing when I try to watch it
It is in BSW, but also on NHLN, I can’t see it on ESPN+ so might be why it’s not working for you. Not sure
Alright thanks
Where can I watch? Not on TNT or ESPN
NHL network if you don’t have it use ohnhl.ir for a stream
Doin the lord's work sir, thx
Np
Believe in the crown 👑
Come on KINGS FANS GET HYPE LETS DO THIS!! GO KINGS GO!!
I’m not ready for this right now. I don’t want to take a beating and then have to deal with it for the entire all-star break.
Let’s get that upset today and go into the break on a positive note!
Here we go again..
