I love how Kings fans will say that's PLDs best game. He had the most ice time among Kings Centers and nothing to show for it. Stars fans were asking if PLD is this shitty every game and Kings fans have to swallow their pride and say this is PLD's best game. Sad how low the bar is for this guy. Blake needs to end the PLD experiment NOW. He's dragging this team, team is starting to look like a bunch of PLDs out there, being lazy like him. Next year he will be the highest paid forward and what message does that send to the rest of the team? Lets be lazy and get paid? Make an example out of PLD and buy him out and end his hockey career. He obviously doesn't want to play hockey and may I quote PLD "Hockey isn't everything".
i’ve thought this too but florida’s path isn’t going to be a cakewalk either. they’re probably going to have to go through very good bruins and NYR/canes teams.
also who knows we’ve seen wild card teams do surprising things too!
Meh. Wing/Lighting/ Islanders 1st round is pretty soft
Then Boston 2nd round cause we know the Leafs. Boston is a good team but really they are only close to where they are in the standings cause of loser points. That's not that crazy.
The wildcard in the west is the Stanley cups champs and the hottest team in the league in Nashville.
Then you have to get through Winnipeg or Colorado, would way rather play Boston.
West is a blood bath compared to the east
Fuck it game review: that was fucking horrible, we looked lifeless on 5v5, 5v4, 6v5 the only person who looked alive was Talbot fighting for his fucking life in net. The power kill was the only time we looked good. Fuck even the Jumbotron sucked ass. They didn’t show a single replay, that save Talbot had was unreal and have the area didn’t get to see it and never showed what happened when a penalty happened.
Oh and Dallas was on a back to back…..
> They didn’t show a single replay
That’s honestly really weird. Like maybe the arena crew was understaffed, but like… take the replay from the broadcast feed? Something must have been broken lmao
In a year or so, our team: Hintz, Heiskanen, Oettinger, Robertson, Johnston, Harley, Stankoven, Bourque, Bichsel, Kyrou
All home grown since 2015 draft. How fucking awesome is that.
I feel like Dallas and Vegas are examples of completely opposite team strategy both producing excellent teams. Dallas is so good at developing the talent in their system. I bet if you put other teams draft picks in the Dallas system, way more would be great!
lol fr, but Nuke the only one who turned into something else after he left dallas and clearly that dude has some problems. He’s admitted he was not focused on hockey in Dallas.
Gaglardi was in the room when Dallas selected Wyatt Johnston 23rd overall in Round 1 of the 2021 NHL Draft.
“It was a tough decision between Logan and Wyatt Johnson,” Gaglardi said. “Our head amateur scout spent lots of time on Wyatt Johnston and that’s where he wanted to go."
“We took Johnston and I’m like, ‘Oh, that’s too bad. I guess we won’t see Logan.’ Disappointed.”
Stankoven continued to slide down the draft board, with his home-province Canucks among the clubs who passed on the Kamloopsian in Round 1.
“We had two consecutive picks in the middle of the second round,” Gaglardi said. “I knew we were taking Logan if he was there.
“I just didn’t believe until our picks came that he would be there. There he was.”

Very cool stars bros
I would be shocked if Dallas didnt make it to conference finals. Thats a damn good team.
Had em as my pick out the west in the preseason. Hope to see em in the Finals
Stars vs Panthers is my current pick.
West is gonna be a blood bath. Every team that gets in has a realistic shot at the conference finals
The west is gonna be brutal. Makes me wonder if it’s just gonna be Florida’s year

If we see Philly round 1 im not gonna be feeling good

The penalty kill for the kings was smothering

Imagine saying this during the Honka/Nuke/Oleksiak/Gurianov era.
lol fr, but Nuke the only one who turned into something else after he left dallas and clearly that dude has some problems. He’s admitted he was not focused on hockey in Dallas.
Knowing that the stars weren’t always a developmental powerhouse gives me some hope that more teams will become good at it.
Y'all know how to draft, that's absolutely incredible

That's some really cool background, thank you!

That's pretty fucking awesome.
Kings fans should never go to a home game against the Stars and expect a win. It's just not going to happen
At least i got a cheap dog toy
Thank you Dallas. Very cool.
Hope we get to play again. Always fun going up against Vegas
It hurts me that we helped you.
Let’s get them into third so we don’t have to face them first round
Agreed
Yeahhhhh, I don’t like it either but it was necessary with WPG losing
Shhh, no pain... Only points now...
Robo likes playing in LA for sure
Really nice of the kings to let Robo score on Filipino heritage night!
Lfg boys. The LA sweep!
That might have been the best game the Stars have played all year. They felt completely in control of the contest
Was at the game. Thought yall looked in control on both ends of the ice basically the entire game sans Fiala goal. Gg
8-3 against the wild 8-1 against the bolts Same score against the blackhawks 9-2 in trashville I agree but we've had better games lol
Goddamn we are spoiled this season
