PGT: #44 Kings vs Stars 1/12/12, Post Game S/O Loss, THOUGHTS & TIDBITS

[onlyalad]

Doughty's penalty didn't cost the Kings the game, there was hardly any time left. Richard's double minor was upsetting to see and the missed call on the Doughty trip was unfortunate. Still got a point

[Willard]

LaRue, one of the refs tonight, was one of the two refs for the worst refereed game I ever saw the Kings involved in.

That was back when Jason Allison was the #1 center about 10 years ago, and the Kings were called for like 10 minor penalties vs 1 or 2 for the Avs and lost the game because of it.

Those of you who remember it, can recall Kings fans throwing things on the ice after the game against the refs Hasenfratz & LaRue.

I see LaRue isn't much better now than he was back then.

Kings are saying it's upper body injury. Damn...

[cheap77]

I don't get it. I still don't even know what to say about that ****ed up game. I mean... really?

How was that not a goal at the end either? And those penalties.. Why? and what the ****.

Am I the only one thinking that Doughty played pretty terrible tonight?

Hope Kopitar's injury isn't serious, and I look forward to the next and last meeting!

Oh we'll be ready and waiting. Tell your boy Morrow to keep his head up, karma is a *****.

[Shellz]

We came back after being down two. I'm happy the team can do that. I'm glad Ididn't watch the whole game or I wouldbe pissed.

I bet not.

Yes I did,because then it led to non calls and make up calls.

[DocWest]

Benn came off like a total ***** in that game. I wish somebody knocked him out when he was pummeling Williams in the net.

Doughty diving, mishandling the puck in the offensive zone, etc.

Probably Neck related, I really hope it's not yet another Concussion. The season of the Concussion.

[Cruel11]

Doughty and Richards both had terrible games.

Williams and Brown were also underwhelming, save for Brown's goal. They weren't connecting with any passes and they were both kind of derping it around in the offensive zone.

Ref had nothing to do with that loss? Change the title, embarrassing.

lol suuuuuure.


Again cause that is how it works.


Refs did fine. Jesus, can we ever just say we lost? Someone around these parts always has to roll out the blame game on officiating. It's pathetic.

That was a crazy physical game and for the most part...pretty evenly called. Pretty fairly called.

[dunbar42]

I don't know if I can watch this team without Kopitar.

Without doughty's penalty, the ref doesn't blow the play down and the kings score. He blew the whistle because of doughty's penalty and Fraser touched the puck.

This.

Might as well trade him to Vancouver.

He will get his. No need to worry.

Karma on a clean hit?

[chesed]

I'd trade the point for a healthy Kopi.

I'm disappointed. Disheartened. Can't blame the hit or the reffing... all the complaining in the world won't change it, bad or not.

But I still wish Dallas would die in a fire.

At the end their Benn blocked a shot, it hit his hand. Might be Karma cause it looked like he was injured. He was not in the shootout.

[Jason Lewis]

Honestly...

I hope the best for Kopitar....but this is a physical game. If the NHL penalizes that...that's a can of worms.

What next...yelling to the guy before you hit him "HEY I AM GOING TO HIT YOU LOOK OUT HERE I COME AAAAAAAH!"
