a weird game all around. the kings didn't play poorly, but they sure didn't play well. didn't seem to be on the same page with each other.
columbus likes to goon it up against us, and it seems to work for them. hartnell is a dick, and i thought it would have been a perfect night for lucic to go after him and kick his tail. lucic needs to do something to connect with the fans. it felt like fans wanted to cheer for him, but he looks so terribly blase out there, and my brother and i were both reminded of dustin penner. lucic just doesn't seem to have much zip or passion when he skates. he's not a bad player at all, but he was more aggressive in boston, and that part of his game really isn't present right now.
