Kings WIN in San Jose: Reaction Thread

Eric will have a recap in the morning and Nick will have analysis later.

• Wow. A win. OK.
• The Kings played a real...uh...let's say 'gritty' game. It was not what one would call 'entertaining'. There were a grand total of 46 blocked shots tonight. Anyhow, a win is a win. Plus, Vancouver lost to the Oilers (lol) so LA gets some breathing room.
• There weren't a whole lot of scoring chances either:

  Not sure what @fearthefin had, but I had chances at 10-8 (9-5 EV) for SJ. I didn't have the Sharks with any chances at the end of the game.

• Possession numbers ended up dead even as both team attempted 47 shots at evens.
• Dwight King lead the way in possession. He was +13 tonight as King continues to conquer the universe.
• Tyler Toffoli was let out of his cage. He only played 6 minutes at evens but got a lot of PP time. He wasn't really a factor, but hopefully he stays in the line-up.
• Oh yeah and Jonathan Quick got a shutout:
• That brings the Kings to 9 shutouts on the year. That obviously leads the league. Next closest are St. Louis and New Jersey with 6.
• And finally, thank god for Anze:
