Wait, so Anderson got pulled like five minutes into the period but gets a holding call a few minutes later?

How does that happen? I'm not watching the game, btw.

Also 15 games is alright. In terms of what other players have gotten, it's a higher number, which is what it should have been. Is it as high as it should be if the league was serious about the whole thing? No. Is it high enough with current standards? Yes.



.... also lolsens, wtf. 3 goals on 7 shots? what

Savage? Yes. Needlessly savage? No. Hockey and Rugby are needlessly savage. Why do they need to fight and tackle so hard in order to gain control of the ball or puck when players of other sports can do it so gently? Cricket is needlessly savage. Why is dangerous and intimidating fast bowling allowed when line and length alone can encourage a reckless shot? By contrast, MMA only allows techniques that are sufficient for the competitor's objectives of rendering unconscious or attempting to maim an opponent through unarmed combat, nothing more. In fact, many potentially very useful tactics are disallowed, not for reasons of balance or entertainment value but precisely because of their savagery, such as driving one's elbow downwards into the back of your opponent's head as they desperately struggle for a take-down, or emulating that most savage of animals, the chimpanzee, and directly targeting the genitals for destruction. These are but a few examples; there are actually so many disallowed avenues to victory that a regulatory authority could probably fill an entire rule book with them, if they should choose to do so.

wtf. Jones hasn't given up an even strength goal against in ELEVEN STRAIGHT PERIODS. Not since the 2nd period against Anaheim on Dec3. And only 1 goal against in the last 10 periods in general.That's unreal.

Yup. We're awesome :) Ducks played a shitty game too. Out-battle and out-shot. Ended up losing in shootouts.

Kings are 10-1-3 since Quick went down with injury :)

This is actually pretty infuriating.

I mean I understand that these guys play fairly hard most shifts, but these guys are not going to carry this team into the playoffs. I swear, it seems like Maclean coaches this team drunk.

Yeo finally pulled his head out of his ass and put Coyle back on the top line. Haula on the 2nd might not be quite as good as Granlund but it's an improvement over Coyle's inefficient centerman ass. I love the guy but jesus he was bad at center.

With Harding in net + new line combos I'm expecting a much better effort and a much better game overall.

Hope you're ready to watch all that effort account for no points tonight

It's certainly possible but we'll see. Parise/Koivu/Coyle was a really good line last season and when they've been together for brief stints so far this year they've looked great. I'm expecting big things.

If you wish to see the truth of your own nature, forget about these value judgments about who’s right and who’s wrong. Instead look deep inside yourself and tell me, what does your original face look like, before you were ever born?

I like the idea that if a player gets suspended then the team roster is minus a player for the duration of his suspension. It would be a better deterrent then fining millionaires.

This seems like such a common sense solution, which I guess explains why the NHL hasn't adopted it.

What is this?

I have HBO Go thanks to my parents' HBO subscription back home. If I can watch it tonight that would be pretty slick.

I really wish you could get HBO Go without a TV subscription, Game of Thrones is the most pirated show on TV apparently, I feel they'd be better off just letting people have just Go.
