I also wanted to remind everyone that when the Ducks lost Getzlaf they went on a seven game winning streak.
C'mon people, stop crying. It is a TEAM game.
Corey Perry, Teemu Selanne, Bobby Ryan, Koivu... Oh yeah, they were really hurting bad after losing Getzlaf... The Ducks have one of the best crop of forwards in the league. They just have question marks in goal and a non-existent defense.

The Kings can show their true character if they can band together and work though this. It will still be tough, but this will not be an excuse to miss the playoffs. Give him a chance to get back in.
Kozun is a winger all the way. With Moller, Lewis, Richardson etc... I don't know how many tiny centers we need We don't even know if he is NHL ready... I am fine with the Kings trying during the regular season, but I doubt he is the answer at this point in time.

Hey laugh it off if you want but they lost a key part of their roster and still had to play the games. During that 7 game stretch was their defense non-existant and goaltending a question mark?

That Seven Game stretch was against the Non Factor East If I am correct. And Hiller was playing out of his mind.

GO RAIDERS!
I know we can't, but her tweets are always like bad news.
Didn't get a good look at the play, but is there any chance the poor Staples Center ice contributed to it?
i love how all you guys claim to be experts on ice, and can tell what's good and what's not just by looking at it on TV. I would wager that 98% of you don't know jack ****. (I don't claim to know all, but I a lot more than those who are so critical) i've been around the equipment, and the surface itself pretty regularly since '04. Don't refer to team ice reports either, look at the officials.
The Pens have managed with their center position decimated for weeks now. Getzlaf was out 5 weeks and the Ducks did fine in his absence even with all of their issues on D.
This team is built around world-class D and goaltending. Obviously you can't replace Kopitar, but the team can put enough pucks in the net from other people to bridge the gap until they can get Schenn from his junior team or get Kopitar back from IR.
It sucks, but it's not the end of the world. The win today certainly helped.

I don't understand? The players pretty regularly admit that our ice isn't very good compared to the rest of the league. Why does it have to be so controversial to suggest Staples having poor ice?

Because my dad, and his guys bust their ***** to get the ice to a playable level when sometimes having as few as 4 hours to do so. I read reports on an almost nightly basis, the officials rarely say it's anything but "average" to "good".
