There goes the save%

Grant with the crosscheck, no penalty. Dahlin gets ripped to the ice by his helmet, no call. Instead, it's an Anaheim powerplay? That is nonsensical.

Huh. So... if they don't have that money, and no one else steps up to replace the TV revenue, it's really good to lock up your core to cheap contracts because the cap will have another hold or even a substantial drop.

All the coordinates are set. It's now or never... (this season)

Yes, but what are their corresponding waistline sizes? 😇

One of the issues of a three-goalie rotation is that they won't see the ice for awhile. Throw in a 10-day bye and... Anderson hasn't played since 1/23 and looks it. Comrie hasn't played since 1/26. And the team in front of them is very haphazard. A strong defensive 1st, then the shorthanded goal against and they fell apart. This is where having someone be the goon could be valuable and spark them, if not for tonight then for the rest of the trip. They need someone to step up with either an immediate goal or a big hit or an outright fight. Something.

Skinner has an open lane into the zone and easily leads to a giveaway.

They haven't looked this bad since then. Even during the 8-game losing streak. They've been so sloppy and passive which is a terr... oh, there goes another... terrible combination. There's a lot of blood in the water.

Shot to the crest. Need to make a quicker pass or work for some deflections and scrums. Again, they're being outworked by the defenders.

The entire team needs a jumpstart.

That's puck luck that they earned. Fanned shot and it slides through for the wide open shot.

Everything on that powerplay was garbage. Turnover, Power not facing the rush. No shots on 3 power plays, outscored 1-0. Gross.

Big fan of the ninja turtles?

They're drawing the penalties with their possession. Now to convert one.

They didn't even mention the Kings prospects on Northeastern until the equipment stoppage.

LA Kings broadcast -- Levi wins the Beanpot! That's good coverage of the visitors.

Playing out similar to the first matchup which was 0-0 after two. Then the Sabres took over. That'd be nice.

Both teams are capable of playing defense. We're at 15 combined shots almost midway through the contest. Danault saved a goal (or at least a fantastic opportunity).

Clean kill.

Bah. Offensive zone penalty on Girgs, and that's a good call.

What? Star Wars Night on Saturday night vs. Arizona with a Grogu tropical mug?

Another PP where they are being outworked by the PK-ers. It's been an issue for a month now. It can't just be the Tage one-timer. They've got to put in the effort to go get the puck, move off-puck, and force the issue. They're not doing that. It gets harder, not easier, as the season progresses.

Alright. Let's finish this period with a power (play) converter.

Tage worries me sometimes in the defensive zone.

Thompson's release is freakishly fast. He missed the net, but wowsers that was a wristed wrocket.
