Ok, it seems that we’ve gone back to the future. Last night’s 7-4 Kings win of the Oilers was almost like a game from the 80’s where the Kings and Oilers in the playoffs scored 18 goals between them. Most of my comments are only from what I heard since my Center Ice package decided to blackout the game since I’m in the local area for the Kings. Of course, the Kings didn’t broadcast it but at least Versus did online.
The good – Garon back in goal, 7 goals, Alyn McCauley played for the first time this year, another solid effort by Armstrong
The bad – 4 goals given up, Garon rusty in the first half of the game, no local coverage
The ugly – Scott Thornton going nuts and whaling on one of the Oilers
Overall, a good win, two in a row, and going for three in Calgary tonight.
Go Kings Go!
