- UPCOMING SCHEDULE -

[Telos]

****ing A. Doesn't get much worse than this night. As important as the situation gets, 3 goal lead, and lose... Clifford is in the doghouse after this one...

[FrozenKing18]

Sucks.

Props to Dustin Brown for stepping up tonight.

[Cruel11]

Lol jj

[bobafettish*]

fail complete.

[riseandfall9]

Kyle Clifford and Matt Greene lost us this game tonight.

[Racer]

At least they didn't get shut out again

[Muzzinga]

pretty incredible to finally score goals and lose anyway

[CowMix]

I'm not even mad, the ways this teams finds a way to lose are just hilarious. Blow it up.

[Rafa Nadal]

The rare time they ****ing have an offensive "explosion" and that is when they decide to suck defensively. Kings just can't do anything right.

[damacles1156]

Well the Kings at least scored.

Quick has bailed this team out all season. So Not even mad at him.

Much more exciting game to watch.

and, for the first time in forever, Jonathan Quick.

we can't lose games in which we actually score...ugh

[Shellz]

What a great game to watch!


Disgusting by the Kings...

[Jason Lewis]

Brown came to play. Atta boy.


But I hope Clifford is scratched tomorrow if not suspended. Get his head on straight and thinking better out there. He made a **** ton of stupid mistakes tonight, including the hit.

[DAkings20]

Win or lose, DL still wasn't gonna do ****.

I guess we can either score goals.... or play defense... cant do them both.

[Nose of Sutter]

Hi, I'm Darryl Sutter and I don't seem to realize that Mike Richards can't shoot in the shootout. Just chucked my phone I'm so frustrated

The whole team lost the game.

[DocWest]

Score four goals and still lose. At least the 43 Coyotes fans are happy.

Worst pp in the league scores three.

[BigBrown]

Quick was just paying the players back for what he's been getting all season

Seriously though, this team sucks.

[Live in the Now]

Clifford would be in the dog house, but he's not even going to be able to play the next game or two. The PK blew it tonight.

[bobafettish*]

still am baffled as to why clifford got ice time after his stupid penalty.

[kingsfan28]

score 4 goals for a change and give up 5 after the shootout. PK you sucked tonight!

[Ajtacker]

Eerily similar to game 3 of the playoffs last year, glad I wasn't at this one.
