A win at home? It’s a Christmas miracle! Wasn’t pretty at times (too many penalties), but they can’t all be. I’ll take the 2 points under any circumstances. Happy holidays everyone!
Q is the future and the future is now.
Get with the program boys it’s happening.
I love that Talbot went for the EN goal at the end there. Stressful win but a fun game overall!
GG guys. A W is a good early Christmas present
Is CGY coach crazy? Why pull with 40s left…
Hey, Our favorite trade got a goal!
I am the king of Christmas dinner 🙌
Still not playing as well as they could be at home, but they got the win. Too many penalties, dumb moments, and overall lack of killer instinct (thank god QB is fast as fuck) to finish off games when the grade A chances present themselves.
Back to .500, but they need to figure out how to translate road performances to LA. Cuz they dont look anywhere the same.
Who was more excited to get Drew’s stick, the kid or his dad?
Pierre Luc Dubois scored a goal and had 4 shots and was generating a bunch of opportunities. But I don’t like how he skates. 😤😤😤 /s
bUsTFiELd COuLdNT EvEN GEt a HaTTy!
Quinton Byfield, YOU are going on my blank RR jersey in the offseason.
That was a lot more fun than playing the Kraken
It’s almost like we should give players a little while to come into their own on this team 🤔
Kind of an ugly game on defense, sloppy penalties, but good offense got the job done
PK was really good tonight, and we needed it too much.
PLD scores, and would have had a 2nd if the puck hadn’t crossed, and played very well…but people are still fucking complaining.
God damn QB is a monster.
The boys skated another good game tonight, solid all around. I love watching this team, they skate with such joy and you can really see the team camraderie. This is by far the most fun team to watch since the Cup era. Kopitar for Hart!
Merry Christmas Kings Fans!
Once again I get to turn the automated comment back on:
* Wow, that was a great 4 or more goals!
* This is Byfield’s best game yet!
* Cam is playing so well in the net!
* Thousand Oaks Native Trevor Moore!
That was a great team win. A bit sloppy at times and way too many penalties but all 4 lines were rolling and contributing. Love to see PL get on the board and have a strong game. That hustle by Byfield to ice the game with his 2nd of the night was awesome. He just works his ass off and is really becoming a great player. Double digit goals for the first time in his career. I thought Talbot made some big saves too. Great way to go into the Christmas break.
Sloppy, but the Kings got the points. On the plus side, this Byfield kid is looking really good.
That trevor moore goal was just pure unfiltered unprocessed gluten free non gmo vegan NUT
Byfield is gaining some confidence! Trevor Moore is the man! This year for the most part has been fun to watch.
That was Hanafin QB torched, a guy who will fetch a 1st at the deadline and then sign at least for 7mm AAV x 7 in the offseason.
Really, this was a 5-2 win. That play where Spence Durzi’d himself was a super fluke and not the norm.
The Kings looked great, I really liked them forcing so many turnovers and creating chances. Markstrom was actually standing on his head or we could have put in 7 or 8.
Byfield ‘s play at the end there, galloping and leaving hanifin in the dust was simply magnificent. What a player he is, the motor on that dude to still be able to hit top speed and bury it is crazy. Even if the net was empty.. This is the way to go into Xmas break, come back to the sharts at home. Really nice for PLD to get one before the break too. I feel like he’s getting more comfortable in the system and we’ll be seeing him racking up points. His whole line tonight looked good.
Josh was fantastic on the call tonight
QUINTON.
BYFIELD.
That is all. See y’all on the other side of the break.
Total team win. The penalties were all unneeded and messy, but the PK was resolute. QB got wheels, and PLD back on the score sheet. And of course Moorezy with a wrister that would make Bedard blush. Good way to sign off for the break.
Everybody is already talking about Byfield, but I’ll just add that it’s not often you see a highlight reel worthy empty net goal, so that was pretty cool.
As far as the penalties tonight, was there a single one that was worth taking? I get accidents happen, but I don’t think a single one was because they were trying to prevent a goal.
We got some big games coming up. Don’t take the Sharks lightly. Get that W on Wednesday and let’s get a streak going against our (more recent) biggest rivals.
Was at this one and really had a great time. Moore’s skating is so powerful and impressive live. Also Dubois had a play up the neutral zone where he was legit flying. Dude has all the tools… hope he keeps it up.
Kings felt dangerous all game outside of the ref show in the 3rd. Penalties seemed fairly legit live tho… glad Talbot is okay too. Scary collision.
Happy holiday break everyone, GKG.
Byfield is the future. Long msy he Reign.
PLD was earning his money last night, great to see.
