That game may've been a taste of what we're going to see a lot of this year. The team's energy and youth will catch opponents sleeping and make them surprisingly competitive through 2+ periods of play, but rookie mistakes late in games will waste a lot of it.

Absolutely, Osprey. I can see that happening quite a bit.

We just need the league to reduce game times to 40 mins and we win the cup.

Looks like Amadio and JAD are ready to fight for a spot on this team. My guess is they push JAD to Ontario because he doesn't need to clear waivers.

Didn't see the game tonight but did notice Carter was pointless on a night where we scored 7 goals. Anyone see how he played. Was he skating fast? or gliding?

Except for one play (that sounded like a good chance for him) that I missed, I pretty much didn't notice him or even hear his name. When I did look for him to see how he was doing, he appeared to just be coasting. It's only preseason, but it wasn't very encouraging.

He must've read my critique. Seriously, maybe he was just slow to get going, as veterans often are during training camp. Playing wing and with a kid doing everything to make the team might be helping, too.

Kempe took a stick up high in practice today. Maybe it was retaliation for his dumb, offensive zone penalty that ruined the team's last good chance to tie the game last night.

I'm happy with how the Kings preseason went.

Not saying it will all translate to the regular season, but compared to last years preseason I feel...encouraged. Which has been a rare feeling over the last year. I think I like it.

Will be interesting to see what the Kings do with Bjornfot. He has been really good in camp and the games. He deserves a spot on the opening day roster but doubt the Kings blow a year of his entry level deal and keep him with the big club for over 9 games. I think the best option is back home for 1-2 years, then when Turks, Gabe V. and Artie make the team they all come up and we make a legit playoff push.
