Discussion Questions
- Sabres forward Victor Olofsson has eight career NHL goals. All eight have come on the power play. (He’s the first to do this since goals by type began being counted in the 1933-34 NHL season.) How afraid of you are the Kings penalty kill tonight?
- What do you think Tobias Bjornfot does in the press box or the locker room or wherever to kill time when he’s not playing?
- Jack Campbell is starting tonight and Jonathan Quick seems to be, uh, hella mad. This is a recipe for disaster, right?
Few notes from LAK AM optional skate - no McLellan, Brown, Carter, Doughty, etc. Campbell left early, assume he's starting.

Jonathan Quick was on ice taking shots from players and getting really upset with himself. Smashed stick in two over the crossbar.
