Hey Terry, you're old school, I respect that. Not a lot of Kings fans like you but man, fastest Kings coach to 100 victories has gotta stand for something.

[Orenji]

Quick is the best shootout goalie in the league.

He's pretty incredible.

[KopitarFAN]

20 down, 30 to go.

[Shellz]

My ****ing boy! My ****ing boy!

[sweatypickle]

Oilers played a solid road game...
Simmonds and Jack my stars...
Brown just a magnet of SUCK all night..

[DaAnimal]

Yeah! Jmfj!!!

Gj By Quick!!!

[BerniernextRoy]

Quick is one of the best shoot out goalies in the league. No question.

Great win and tack on another 2 points.

[Sydor25]

Kings win with a sloppy effort tonight. Kings were very scrambly in their own zone tonight.

I don't mind Edmonton getting the loser point. Kings finally gain a point on Dallas.

[AKAY47]

Trevor really didn't have a good game, wouldn't be surprised if Kevin Westgarth is in on Sunday instead of Lewis.

Other then that, we didn't play THAT well but hopefully we shape our game up a little on Sunday, Harrold-Drewiske will FINALLY be separated, God they were making me puke, Greene should be good to go!

Merry Christmas to all!

[Ron]

Some of you guys are really amazing...great game against Colorado, so-so tonight for first two periods but they owned the third, and some of you are still not satisfied.

They did get 4 points in the past two games...in case some of you don't get it, that's the BEST you can do in hockey.

[Shellz]

Played good enough to win. That's all that matters.

[BerniernextRoy]

Give some credit to the Oilers too, they have a pretty talented young team over there. Once they get some additional pieces, they will be another player in the Western Conference.

[Puck U]

WINS AGAIN

[Live in the Now]

Stole those points.

Agreed 100%, they look good out there just need to buy into the system and they could eventually be very scary.

[Cruel11]

Jack muther ****ing Johnson!!!

[Sydor25]

5 games in 7 nights after Christmas. 3-2 would be nice. 4-1 would be outstanding.

My guess for Sunday:

Sturm-Kopitar-Brown
Smyth-Stoll-Williams
Clifford-Handzus-Simmonds
Poni-Richardson-Westgarth

[Shellz]

I honestly don't think the Kings played that badly. The Oilers just had no business winning tonight

[KingLB]

For the anti-shootout ppl...look at the replay of Quick's save....I pretty sure half the lower bowl is jumping up and down.

Except they gave a point to a conference opponent. 2 regulation wins is the BEST they could do.

Not a big deal because it is the Oilers and they are not a threat to the Kings playoff chances.

Yeah I don't see this Conference getting any easier in the future, that's for sure.

I don't think any of the "anti-shootout" people have a problem with said shootout creating crowd excitement...
