I believe the answer is the classic case of.... needing to prove he's smarter than everyone. You bench three skill players for trash. Good coaching.

Hakstol zero NHL experience and the only coach in the last 40+ years that didn't win a championship at North Dakota. Can't argue with the logic behind the hire.

The whole game was that way. They sat back and gave up any measure of a possession game in the attempt to keep LA to the perimeter. It was effective if you forget how amazing Neuvy was. They also blocked 30+ shots. Horribly boring game.

Coach watching the sens trap and decided that looks like good hockey that the fans love to watch. If we sit back and block we don't need shots. Embarrassing. Flyers aren't deep talent but have better talent sitting.

Get shutout with two of the top skill players in the press box, then allow an ex Flyer to bury them in OT! Flyers hockey!

Haks-hole putting TK and Ghost back in for next game contradicts everything he said about why he scratched them. He never should have scratched them at all. To say it is all about winning at this time of year, then go into OT tied at 0 and lose, you need to keep them scratched to save face or you just look like a fool putting them back in the next game. There is no saving face for him in this situation except to scratch them again on Monday. Unfortunately, the fact he scratched them at all makes him look like a fool.

17 shots on goal in 63 minutes.

I know you live to bash the Flyers but the Kings contributed as much to that as anything..

Has to be a reason why they are giving up the least amount of shots per game in the league..

Hoping TK and Ghost get back in ...

Right now they have 3 out of 4 points on this homestand and points in 5 out 6 games total.

Tough loss but 1 point is better then no points..

Sort of wish you could just go G, Jake, Simmonds and Provy all 3 v 3..Dont need to see Weiss, Coots, Schenn or anyone else out there ever.

Why not Raffl in OT? I am by no means a Read fan, but i rather they used him than (frank)ing Weezer.
