Good show, Eddie, thank you! I was at the April 4th game vs. Oilers and the Kings were good defensively but were awful on offense as they were missing players, Fiala & Mikey. If they aren't 100% healthy by game 2, the Kings don't have any realistic chance to win the series. Even with all players, the Oilers who are the best team in the NHL the past several weeks, are expected to beat the Kings & to reach the Final. If the Kings goalie, I assume will be Korpisalo is elite in the net, the Kings have a decent chance for the upset but if the Kings goalies play their "B" game, I expect the Oilers to win in 6 or 7 games. Plus I'm afraid that the Oilers will once again be more physical than the Kings which could take its toll on our players in the latter periods & as the series gets longer. I think I am more realistic than just being a Debbie Downer pessimist but I would love to be wrong & see a big upset. GKG!!!
Great show Eddie! We appreciate all you do for the kings and for us! You’re one of the few if only kings podcast and you do a amazing job! Crossing my fingers fiala and others are back for play offs! GKG 👑
I just hope that berdard don't end up getting drafted by the sharks or ducks or hawks pretty much anybody in the west I want the blue jackets to get him 💯
Good job Eddie 👍 😎
I admire your optimism, Eddie, but I see my Kings don't match up with the Oilers. First, the injuries to Fiala and Vilardi is huge! They are our skilled scorers and without them in the line up, I can see the trouble we have scoring. Second, we have showed we can play defense, but I do see them have lapses and make mistakes at critical times. Durzi scares me in a tense game as he's shown to turn over the puck at critical times. Our goalies are good but can't seem to make the big save we need to have at those critical moments. Third, Edmonton improved their defense by making that trade for Mattias Eckholm. Forth, Stuart Skinner is showing he can play in big games and making clutch saves. If I were a betting man, my money is on the Oilers to win the series. In fact, I predict they'll be in the Stanley Cup finals. Just my humble opinion, I hope I'm wrong…
