The Kings pulled within one goal 1:55 into the second period. Wayne Simmonds forced the puck away from Jonathan Ericsson. Anze Kopitar picked it up and shot, and Howard made the save, but with the puck loose in front, Brad Richardson jabbed at it and popped it into the air, over Howard’s head. As the puck was coming down, Kopitar knocked it over the line.
it takes the line mates of simmer and richie to wake kopi up…i’ll take it…

Energy, energy, energy…
Hey, Moller:
You owe the team a goal!
[Reply]
We’re just starting to get rolling. We have ourselves a hockey game boys!
[Reply]
Oh yeah. That’s right.. there IS Still 40 minutes left in this game..
Haters GTFO
[Reply]
was our goal JJ’s fault too?
[Reply]
Love the non-tripping call on Brownie, right in front of the net!
[Reply]
Stupid zebras!
[Reply]
This is all I ask…that the Kings play hockey like they have for the first several minutes of this period…win or lose…good, solid hockey.
Why were they not prepared to play like this in the first period?
[Reply]
No but JJ walking the ling and getting checked from behind losing momentum is his fault
[Reply]
And regarding Brown…he takes alot of dives, so the refs are reluctant to call it when he goes down unless it’s obvious!
[Reply]
Make another goal, boys!
[Reply]
they’re playing north and south now…much better puck possession and opportunity…
[Reply]
Ohhh, Smitty. A little saucer pass over the D stick and it’s a tie game.
[Reply]
common boyz gett this done
[Reply]
not really waves… stoll was covered pretty well. it would have been a good chance but not a sure thing.
power play time boys!!!!!!
[Reply]
Best hockey I’ve seen in awhile! Love the quick outlet passes…
[Reply]
I have to say we’ve got them backing up.
[Reply]
come on boys score on this pp
[Reply]
frolov is a beast downlown
[Reply]
notice how we play better vs. detroit when the play is AWAY from the boards in the neutral zone…
i think…because of all the injuries…it’s the first time i could say that for a long time…:)
[Reply]
Now’s the time to open it up on a PP. Come on Kings!!!
[Reply]
are we goin to see the secret weapon?…
one time pass to stoll?
[Reply]
keep shooting
[Reply]
and yes…fro is playing great…again…lets get a couple, fro-goal…!
[Reply]
simmer needs to be on the pp not purcell
[Reply]
huge save
[Reply]
what a save by quick
[Reply]
At least it looked a little better but man, gotta score!
[Reply]
that is why you dont put PURCELL ON THE ICE
NOW YOU SEE WHAT HE CAUSES EVEN WHILE IN THE OffENSIVE ZONE.
[Reply]
0-26 doesn’t help either on special teams. JJ can’t hit jumbo jet if it was in front of him.
[Reply]
It would only be fair to score a last minute goal to tie this one up…
[Reply]
purcell looks lost out there
[Reply]
AGREE with simmer on the PP
i would like to see scott parse on that unit with handzues.
scott parse can create 5on5 he’d do better then purcell.
[Reply]
boys have to keep playing like they r and good things will come hopefully
[Reply]
Purcell’s is an albatross. Might as well be King’s penalty 5on4.
[Reply]
they must have used soccer nets for wolverine college hockey… cause JJ’s shot is horrible!
[Reply]
purcell has to hear quick’s stick slamming and not throw the puck up the middle with nobody wide open.
[Reply]
Home team struggling…
Suddenly there’s a problem with the glass!
[Reply]
it seems as though dl is married to him at this point (teddy)…i think he’s ours for the season, unless he gets thrown into the bigger and better deal…
[Reply]
Stoner,
And it doesn’t seem to be a shot/pass off the back boards.
[Reply]
Purcell hasn’t played bad.That line held the puck in the zone a good minute,or more.
[Reply]
C’mon! Det got its wind back. Let’s PLAY HOCKEY!
[Reply]
Purcell needs to sit down for the rest of the game he brings nothing
[Reply]
its almost comical how bad it is. he’s real good in the shootout when its up close but from the blue line.. no way!!
the worst thing to happen to JMFJ was doughty becoming a king!!
[Reply]
well the kings have a way better and faster crew changing the glass. haha
[Reply]
DOMM…
it doesn’t matter much…to me, purcell is a bigger version of pos…: someone who shies away from contact when driving (?) to the net…
[Reply]
How much money is Kopitar making this season?
[Reply]
if jj would only play with the passion that dd has
[Reply]
JJ’s past outshines his future
[Reply]
If JJ only played with all the passion you can tell he has in his heart!
The passion is there, I can feel it.
JJ needs to see the Oracle. She’ll tell him exactly what he needs to hear…
[Reply]
i cant remember a game this year where JJ has run someone thru the boards
[Reply]
Maybe JJ will find out he’s the one.
[Reply]
Any truth to the JMFJ to Detroit trade rumors?
[Reply]
NO.
[Reply]
I kinda thought so. Why would DL “bash” JMFJ’s skills if he was looking to trade him? That would diminish his trade value …
[Reply]
JJ is a stud as a player.
he’s a star that plus/minus can be misleading because he’s always on the ice in every situation.
if you ask me:
do i think Johnson’s d-game is the best on the team? i’d say no.
scuderi or doughty would get that nod iMHO.
JOHNSON is going to grow into that role he’s learning to play on this team. i think he is as important piece as doughty.
[Reply]
jj to Detroit? yeah right most of the roster is too old. I see jj in a package for kovalchuck maybe.
[Reply]
wow some guy is gonna jump to hurt himself
[Reply]
crazy Detroit fans.
[Reply]
what did i say about parse
[Reply]
