    I would have said we were lucky if Quick was in there too. We let 2 Blues get in behind our “D” and the Blues didn’t score when they should have. Relax and hope we get lucky in the other end like we did on Carter’s first goal last night. The only agenda I have is a Stanley Cup repeat. Like Kopi said, “It’s too much fun not to do it again”>

    Maybe – Quick doesn’t wait in his spot for either shot, he’ll push out hard toward it and that limits the effect of the deflection. Different styles = different holes

    FabKings Reply:

    @DesertKing, I was at that Anaheim game, talk about ups and downs……my blood pressure was awful all night.

    Bright side is Muzzin, he left his guy for that 1st of 7 goals that night in Anaheim and I was beside myself with shock.

    Since then, he’s becoming a fan favorite for improving his defense and his great offensive skills.
    Wish the kid success, glad he’s coming through for us.

    Sutter is 21-6-5 at Staples. That shows that he actually coaches, makes adjustments, and uses the last switch to get the best match-ups.

    Yep and when sutts changes the GT’s, it’s not a message to them, but the rest of the team. Wondering when fans will realize this..

    @Goring 19, I remember Sean O’Donnell getting 5 for fighting and blues scored 3 goals on that PP. I felt some satisfaction when we swept the blues last year and when we scored 3 goals on the PP against the Devils…and tonight of course…never forget.

    What a game! Way to battle back, boys! To see that kind of push in the 3rd period in the second of back-to-back games is amazing.

    I am happy for Quick. Nothing against Bernier. I just think Quick needed that. Bring on Dallas!

    YoBro Reply:

    @LT21, Are you a Kings fan or a Quick fan? It’s OK to be both, but …. Team first, man.

    [Reply]

    LT21 Reply:

    @YoBro, I am both but my favorite player is Quick. That is ok to have, you know. I knew someone was going to take what I said the wrong way, that was why I put in the “Nothing against Bernier” part. I just think Quick needed that for a little confidence boost before his next start. I didn’t wish for Bernier to struggle but if he did I was glad Quick was able to come in and get the job done. Did I say anything bad about Bernier? No. I am team first. I just think it was good for Quick tonight too.

    @LT21, Maybe it’s just cause you continually beat on Bernier, I took it differently than you intended- my bad. ;)

    @LT21, The backup quarterback is the most popular guy in the stadium.

    LT21 Reply:

    @LT21, No worries. I don’t intend to beat on Bernier. If it comes across that way then that’s my bad. I just have my favorites and want them to play and do well. I know I come to Quick’s defense a lot but that is because he is my favorite. In the end, just want the W.

    YoBro Reply:

    @LT21, Your last line sums me up as well!

    Go Kings

    and WTFK, If the backup is WINNING, he’s my favorite too!

    Spencer Maze Reply:

    @LT21, I really didn’t understand why JB got the start last night. I get the fact that he’s the hot goalie but last night was a perfect opportunity to start JQ considering how much success he had last year in the playoffs against the Blues…
