Nice! Comfy thread!
GO KINGS GO!
>>63515099
We'll see, won't we?
Wait are we wearing camo for the game or just warmups?
>>63515200
just warmups
whats everyone drinking?
>>63515200
Warm-ups. They wouldn't wear camo for the game, you crazy person.
>>63514965
Greatness will be recognized this game
>>63515229
I wasn't drinking anything, but then I realized that I don't have a reason *not* to do so. Guess I'll get out the whiskey.
>>63515229
Chicken soup broth. Fighting off a fucking cold because work hasn't been shitty enough lately. Sorry, I'm a little bitter.
>>63515229
Diet cherry dr pepper
>>63515255
It might be cool tho
Based Pia
Oh shit! Stream just kicked on and I got to hear Pia serenading us, now that's a damn good omen. Holy shit, her backside in that dress, HNNNGGGG
>>63515282
Enjoy the view :^)
>>63515229
Champ
Hes a big guy
>>63515292
You have a reason to drink. I can't drink. You must drink for me. Do this for me, senpai
Halak or Greiss?
>>63515560
Done. Tullamore Dew and cola.
>>63515613
I knew you wouldn't let me down!
Does Clutterbuck have the most bully-friendly name in the NHL?
>>63515682
maybe
is there a more manly name than Brock Nelson in the league? Name like that makes me thinks he chews on bullets on the bench
>>63515710
That name always remind me of this

>>63515590
Halak
>>63515682
Katey Perry
Damn it
>scored on by most manly name in NHL
this is how you repay me islesbros?
Another one of these games....
Blood pressure intensifies
Doughty is already having a shitty game
YES YES YES

Why do we still get backups? Kings play last night?
Fuckers are trying to do the same shit to Enroth like he didn't learn last time. That short side is going to be locked down for the rest of the game
Jesus, Doughty is having a *really* bad game right now...
deHAAN trying to help us back into this game
For the love of god stop taking penalties they take so many each game
Fucking hell should have been 2 penalties. That hook wasn't called
jesus, kings, you can't do anything right...you win when you need to lose and when you need to win you fucking suck
>>63516062
When did they need to lose? Remind me...
What are we doing?
>>63516080
more accurate statement would be when i need them to lose
SCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR
>>63516004
he made up for it
>>63516004
*cough cough*
>>63514965
so that's what happens when Doughty doesn't linger on the puck
>>63516118
>>63516122
I didn't say he's have a bad game...I said he was having a bad game *right now*. He's really fucking competitive, so I figured he'd make up for his mistakes this period.
>brown
>5.875 million a year until 2022
>52 shots

you will lose koptiar for this man
There's always that one heckler group at Staples that repeatedly heckle the opposing goalies. I doubt it affects them.
>>63516244
Brown does plenty of other things for the team and we're not losing Kopitar. No fuckin' way that's happening.
>>63514965
Not sure if Gaborik is playing anonymously because he's in veteran coasting mode or just crocked from accumulated wear and tear.
>>63516286
Do it anyway because its fun and keeps the crowd in the game.
>>63516434
http://lakingsinsider.com/2015/11/03/so-whats-up-with-marian-gaboriks-slow-start/
>>63516434
I think we're all still waiting for Gabo to show up
>>63516499
It feels like he's the kind of guy who will let the mental aspect of the game get to him. Like he needs someone to tell him he can still do it; that he's still good. I think this whole thing would go away if he just had someone who gave him the positive support he needed.
>>63516499
I feel his slow start has something to do with brown being on that line for the first part of the season.
They were testing brown for something senpai
>>63516717
Brown is already skating, shooting, and passing better than he was last season. I'm expecting him to start making more assist points and getting the occasional dirty goal this season.
That was a great story time.
who shitposts on /hoc/?
good organize these memes
>>63516848
After Operation Regicide I avoid /hoc/ like the plague, not even worth it for trolling, those threads just give me a headache
SCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR
>Halak's poke check bounces off his own teammate's leg and into his net
Whoops!
Why did I even bother getting hyped for this season?
kongs scaaaaaaaaaaar
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Come on McBain! You should've had that in the bag
islesbros i think im starting to prefer greiss
will they ever find solid goaltending
Any other Kings fans liking Lucic's presence on the ice so far? Guy manhandles people, then sets up pretty good passes in the slot.
>>63517208
I'm liking his performance this game, still on the fence about him as a whole
Anyone else see Paul Krugman in the Islanders jersey and orange wig?
>>63517194
I was thinking the same exact thing Greiss is nice
I'm sick of Halak this season is shit
>>63517296
Well, he's on the only line that's creating offense for the Kings this season. That's something, surely.
>>63517296
Same, dont really like him but i wont argue with success :|
>g/f making carnitas
>Kings winning
>just got accepted into graduate school
Life is good, bros.
>>63517543
>gf breaks up w/ you
>isles come back and win in 3rd
>you start failling in graduate school and go into heavy loans debt
>>63517543
>just got accepted into graduate school
Congrats!!
>>63517543
way to go anonbro
>>63517569
Jokes on you, I didn't take out loans! And g/f and I have been together for 8 years...she's not going anywhere. If the Kings lose, I'll survive. Life's still good.
>>63517569
>not realizing all kings threads are comfy threads
>>63517588
8 years huh, shes gonna leave you
>>63517618
Seems like there are a lot of comfy threads this season so far. Once we hit Jan/Feb, though, there will be plenty of shitposting. I'm just glad I haven't seen DucksFanWhoHatesLA so far. Maybe I'm missing the threads with him in it, but I wouldn't say I'm missing them, goddamn
>>63517647
He's popped up a few times, but not nearly as much before. Hopefully he's found a nice boy that keeps him happy and distracted.
>>63517646
Doubt it. She likes the D and she's an introvert. Shit's cash.
TOLD you that short side's gonna be locked down now. Enroth isn't stupid.
>>63517588
hehe im just playin with you anon, glad you're comfy, same here
Wow. Well, here we go...
This is fucking embarrassing what happened to the Isles team from last year?
>>63517720
Totally forgot he played for LA til tonight
Fuck yeah Enroth and Muzzin
Who hit whom on that play? Did Brown hit or get hit?
>>63517909
more of a collision
>>63517909
Whoever hit who, Brown essentially bounced off that ice like it was a trampoline, dude was back on his feet in a heartbeat
>>63517973
Couple of times I've seen Kings *with the puck* still able to check someone or push them away in order to avoid a check. Saw Lucic do that and Brown did it on that play after the collision. Impressed.
Andreoff playing very aware this game.
I don't like this prevent defense bullshit.
Welp looks like we're gonna lose tomorrow too
gg islebros
Damn, that ended up being a damn fun game.
GG Islandbros
>>63518190
Its the c ucks, lad.
You will win in OT
gg isles, comfy thread, all.
>>63518204
c u c k s are the real wild card. they either perform tremendously or say fuck it during 2nd and OT.
