Look at that crazy old Swede with his oversized shin pads! What a maroon! Remember the days when Craig Ludwig was the only guy who’s game was so built on blocking shots.

Drag that puck and that Dman right to the crease and bang away. Funnel seems like it would be the perfect counter to all these shot blockers. And it seems to be a natural out of our forecheck. I've been waiting to see some of it from King and our other big forwards, but they're not trying it enough IMHO. Once you get them back on their heels, those shooting lanes will be there. You have to challenge them first, though. @DesertKing,

Kings fans are too focused on murky PP and shot-blocking theory and who's been spending too much of their lockout time at the Bicycle Club and not on the stationary bike, and they're distracted away from the real important issues, like how utterly dirty all the other 29 teams in the league are. Has everyone already forgotten how we weren't succeeding last year 'cos Toronto and their henchman refs weren't protecting us from those monsters on any given night? @Adam M, (Especially if you are the blogmaster)

I don't know why you're the first person to suggest that. Any of you ever play rock-paper-scissors? If your opponent is always selecting one of those and beating you what does that tell you? Make them DOUBT themselves about blocking shots.... @rogiesbackup, Exactly! I don’t know why you’re the first person to suggest that. Any of you ever play rock-paper-scissors?
