Eddie's baby brother! Love the content, never miss a day. We don't need to win every game, we just need to get 4 out of 7. I know its early, but Cardiac Kings 2.0?
The anti-playoff beard! Love it!
What a f—ing game let's go kings whoooooo
The game was over 3 in the morning were I live was so pumped I never got to sleep till 5 GKG
What’s pretty crazy is that the Kings were actually leading on SOG at the end of regulation 31-29. However once OT started, the Oilers outshot the Kings 9-0 initially before the Kings got their first SOG in it. That’s another thing Edmonton must be thinking about now. Came back and outshot the Kings after the demoralizing tying goal late in regulation before the game ended only to put it behind them and come out like gangbusters in OT only to lose it by taking another dumb penalty and then have nothing to show for it this time as there is no “loser” point in the playoffs.
No gimme game Game 2 Kings. Live and learn from last season now.
Kings didn't shock the Oilers. Kings finally figured it out the formula of success against the Oilers. Put Esa Tikkanen (Danault) against Gretzky (McDavid) and make Oilers D commit unforced errors and/or commit bonehead penalties, particularly during transition from D to O. 😅
Excellent show 😊
I've never seen an Oiler team throw away a win like they did in this one. Wow. some really Juvenile players still. Having said that, Oilers in 6)
Start strong tomorrow, put the doubts in their head. Chase Skinner early
Nothing to explain with the penalties, just watch Vincent's post interview. He thought he saw something else and in expressing his dismay I think fueled the fans. In post he's asked about it and he said he took a really dumb penalty. You try for puck or whatever you want go with and it gets skate. Always called.
Now for fans throwing shyt at the players? Raiders fans now? What is wrong with you people? Smh
Eddie, I never thought the Kings could win after being hammered physically & execution-wise after 2 periods, as Oilers had massive possession for the first 40 minutes! But the Kings showed lots of heart to hang in there defensively, never giving up, and also began hitting back to show they weren't soft. Kardiac Kings comeback was epic! Kopi, Korpi, Arvy, Danault on McDavid, and Kempe were brilliant! GKG!!!
Very good win from the Kings yesterday, your right about them containing McDavid and they have to keep doing that if they want to win this series. I believe in the Kings getting it done Wednesday night, Copley should start the game but with korpi's showing in Game 1 he can start again but I would start Copley, also with the powerplay unit, it has to get better as the series goes on and the PK, all these factors coming together, the kings have a good chance of winning the series. Go Kings Go
Are we going to see Vilardi or Fiala anytime soon?? I just think we are going to need that depth to win this series.
I never gave up hope. In the 2nd i saw it coming and even started calling it. Kings fans were complaining but i never wavered.
