What I am saying is their D has more gas in the tank in most of Game 4 because they played less/got beat up less in Game 3, and it was a difference maker for them. Our guys looked ragged and exhausted, they looked pretty fresh by comparison. It was a shrewd coach choice that looks to be paying dividends for his hockey club.

Calling it right now: Jay Bo scores tonight and we stun the Kings. This series is going to six, not seven.

This TV situation is abysmal. I can't get NHL network in Eastern NC and the game on CNBC right now isn't even halfway over. Hopefully it doesn't go to OT and I only miss the first period.

Why are they stalling starting the game on NHL Network? I don't want a "Live look in" on another game. Show the (Franking) game morons.

I don't get why no one else seems to see this. Heck, he goes out of his way to avoid hits, too, often moving the puck simply to avoid a hit even if it results in a turnover. Wish the Frank he were not on the team and the coach would be forced to play someone else.

I'm (Franking) done with Jackman. That's an increbidle idiotic penalty to take with five seconds left. It's gonna cost the Blues this series. Single-handedly.

If we lose this game, I might have to agree. Jackman continues to be awful when it counts. One fluky goal does not make up for two games that he's tried to serve up on a silver platter.

Shutdown D for 2 Minutes and just go back into this. Knock these guys around and when we get back to full strength, crash that damn net.

We have been terrible at the beginning of every period tonight. And the beginning of OT constitutes the beginning of a period. Gotta come out strong.

Wow. Another weak effort gives up a three-on-two, and probably ends the series.

Autopsy:
1. When your best line is a goon and two journeymen, your team sucks. CPR line my butt. They were the best line for the first two periods, and Hitch The Genius benched them for most of the stretch.
2. All three goals for LA were beyond easy. Just wait around for a bad penalty or a ridiculous odd-man rush or a soft goal, and you win.
3. Folks, this is the franchise. You're looking at it. The farm system has been cleaned out. If this team as it is constructed can't do it, you have no choice but to get rid of several guys and try to rebuild. There isn't a Great White Hope in the minors any more. They're all on this team, and a lot of them have underachieved.

Just depressing that this franchise never, ever changes. I have zero expectation for them to even keep it close in LA.
