After controlling play and getting grade-A chances for two periods, the failure to notch more than one goal caught up with LA Kings in the worst fashion. They lost their lead and control of the game very early in the third, then gave up a goal in the final minute to…Barret Jackman. (Playoffs are crazy!)
The hottest post-game topic is once again Jonathan Quick, but the team must bear responsibility as well. There’s a lot of things to discuss about what went wrong here, after so much had been going right.
Have a drink, vent, and discuss your first reactions.
Pulling together in tough times has been this team’s M.O. for a while. How do you think the Kings will respond at home?
