The Kings played terribly for 45 minutes. They were unable to match the intensity of the Blues. They were lucky to get to OT in that game. However, I feel like the Blues gave everything they have and the Kings have way more that they are capable of. I'm not sure what Sutter was thinking with his crazy line combos today but the forwards were unable to get in the zone or sustain a forecheck for most of the game. I'd like to see him put the players back where they've been playing all season. Kyle Clifford is no first liner.
Regehr has been solid for the Kings. I'm glad he wasn't more seriously injured. Taking a skate to the face is really scary.
