   I’m sure he meant to bank it off Auld’s glove, over his head, and into the net.

   But seriously, the guy is playing out of his mind.

   see what happens when you put the puck on net.

   what was going on in front of the king’s bench about a minute before the goal was scored?

   Simmonds looks more productive with Kopi then Williams. I don’t miss Williams at all.

   Also CONGRATS to KOPI for being #1 in the league in points!

   Also he’s the #1 Center in points and has been all season long!!! Go KOPI!

    Show of hands

    Who here thinks Murray should KEEP Simmonds on the top line and have Williams EARN his position back?

    With the way Kopi is going, I don’t think it matters much who is skating with him.

    Oh and when Quick did the splits on the one that went way up in the air and scuderi bodied the guy I think I popped MY groin just watching it.

    well put Hamish….after all he scored with Fro on his line didn’t he? Wait…Kopi skating with Simmonds and Frolov…did he get demoted to the third line?

    Williams has earned his spot. Have you seen the points on that line before tonight? An injury shouldn’t keep him off of it.

    WWAMD,

    You and anthony are the same person, right? Like I’ve said before, I’d take one JW over 5 POSs. Get over it already…

    With Kopitar’s hat trick and Ovechkin getting zero tonight, they both lead the league in points with 16.

    Watching this game on the Dallas feed and Karlis Skrastins was being interviewed. Has anyone seen this guy being interviewed? Every 5 seconds he says “You Know” He starts each sentence with you know and ends it with You know….Kinda funny, and makes for a good drinking game

    Are you just trolling? Justin Williams earn his spot back because of one great game? Williams has been helping Smyth and Kopi light it up all season.

    I like Simmonds on the first line. My line combos would be:

    Smyth-Kopi-Simmonds
    JW-Handzus-Brown
    Frolov-Stoll-XXX
    Ivanans-Richardson-Westgarth

    I think its safe to say that Frolov, although he’s playing pretty good this game, will revert back to his old lazy self in the next game or two.

    khahon and thats were we differ.

    O’Sully is playing 2nite…Whats Williams doing?

    Williams actually hasn’t done much this season. Really he’s a pylon on the first line. Its nice to see someone different there eg. SImmonds who adds another dimension to that line. Its great! and great energy! Williams is usually playing catch up, gives a pass to either Kopi or Smyth and they work it get a goal and Williams gets an assist out of the whole deal.

    Btw I’m not anthony for the millionth time. Maybe there are people out there that aren’t blinded by the Dean.

    just shows the ignorance in some people here … the capacity of attention to detail beyond a player for such hate is unbelievable!! is looking like a fool that much fun especially when your team is winning??? hmmm i think so … at least for us who chuckle up to some of the garbage that comes out of some people’s mouths here haha

    Remember the first line was doing great with Williams….and if the Kings can use the excuse of back to back and 4 games in 5 nights…so can Dallas…Its also their back up goalie…With that said the team does look good tonight…but i WANT a win over Phoenix on Sat.

    WWAMD,

    I’m not blinded by DL whatsoever. If you ever read my comments, you would realize that I grill DL quite often, especially in regards to not acquiring some tough, gritty players, which is what this team mainly lacks.

    I really do think you’re anthony.

    Hey Rich,
    Think you get get Dean’s thoughts on Kopitar’s start and how Kopitar has reacted to Dean’s open questioning of him and his conditioning during the offseason?

    POS may have played today but he was also a -2…and contributed nothing to his teams victory.

    I will take a point per game player any day of the week. There are not many in the NHL. Williams is one.

    Do you understand hockey?

    Frolov wasn’t demoted, he was stuck out there on a couple line changes…….wow!

    It must be miserable to be in your world
