NHL Highlights | Avalanche vs. Kings - December 3, 2023

[@richardenriquez8449]

Kings playing some seriously good hockey. Rob Blake’s building a great foundation in LA.

[@Rorschachqp]

Byfield's having fun and not looking like he's struggling.

[@TheGreyCrayon]

8:04 That double celly was amazing. 😎

[@josephwirtz8352]

Old school!

[@TiggaTrey]

filthy celly

[@mattsnider2667]

8:15 Moore's goal was absolutely filthy.

[@jonrobles1468]

That Byfield/Kempe celly, though....😎

[@tony0824]

Kiiiiiings!! That's a DANGEROUUS teeam.. :-) The second goal was absolute perfection, and WHAT A PLAY by Trevor Moore on that 3rd goal woww

[@biglebowski3961]

Trevor moore spin reminded me of James Worthy of 80s lakers days. Unreal quickness

[@hockeykings46]

Good game Kings!

[@DozerMoto]

Just winning games . Moore is one of the elite youngsters but the league is just noticing .

[@dbrandon4528]

Goalie assist

[@rosen9425]

Kings are red hot cup contenders with this type of hockey, phew!

[@russell-di8js]

still early but lookin great

[@hornedlobster]

As a Canucks fan, this Kings team is seriously dangerous. 4 less game than Vegas and only 5 points behind. I'd argue that you guys are the strongest in the division, ahead of Vegas.

[@Andron161]

1 словом подскользнулись.

[@brizzchizz7302]

Second that as a Nucks fan watch the Caps Kings other night what a Wagon.

[@johnbelt94]

Until april rolls around and they'll be eliminated by lower seed club. 4 games less played means they're a well rested team, and avs aren't as good as everyone make them out to be. If you only score one on old washed up cam talbot, you are not a cup contender.

[@tjwhisenhunt1089]

@@johnbelt94 you’ve been living under a rock for the past couple of months if u think this talbot is washed up. He’s easily a vezina contender currently. As for the kings in general, they’ve had one of the most difficult schedules up until this point in the season with quite a few of the games being back to back, so don’t start coming up with excuses. Kings lead the entire league in gaa, goals forward, they’re first on the penalty kill, and they’re top 3 in point percentage

[@allll5557]

How are they better than the knights? The knights played 4 more games and they have 5 losses and kings have 4. And the knights have been without their 2 top defenseman for almost a month now. You're a salty nucks fan jumping on the kings bandwagon. So patheric.

8:19 Jim Fox NUTTED 🤣

[@Rorschachqp]

It's no longer November. Sincerely, - Jim Fox

[@Xenophontes]

I mean i nutted too...that was some McDavid level move he pulled and I was not expecting it either.

[@paulpinball9952]

Guess Nick Nixon and I were "nutted" too (as was Byfield, if you were watching the game), because that approach and shot by Trevor Moore was SPECTACULAR.

[@Beastfromtheeast8]

L,A & vegas will destroy the avs in 7 game playoff series. They are not good

[@vincentlaforest1756]

Destroying a team in 7? Game 7 literally means they played to the max, hence not destroyed. 🤦‍♂Also LA and Vegas cannot both beat the Avs in the playoffs, that's just not how it works. Next time think before posting stupidity like this.

[@edschramm6757]

@@vincentlaforest1756 read to me as in a best of 7 series, with poor phrasing. similarly, avs would drop to either team, not both. i wouldn't go so far as to say the avs are not good. they are top of the central. the stars could pass them because of games in hand, but second in central isn't weak. 15-7-2 is a quite respectable record. i'll take the 14-4-3 to it, but still, it's a very solid record to be running. they aren't chicago, san jose, or collumbus

[@seun9957]

😍😍😍When Trevor Moore scored, Quinton Byfield was like what, at the bench. Kings win 4-1. They will go on the road on Tuesday, December 5, 2023.

[@AnEvolvingApe]

Had the stanky face going.

[@jonrobles1468]

That was a VERY tiny window that he fit the puck into. But when you're going great, you score those kinds of goals.

[@EveryTimeIDavid]

Such a nice goal by Moore.

[@montuckyman4982]

Moore has dazzled yet again! Hasn't he had a few of these short side impossible snipes this year? I seem to recall a nasty backhander, same side off the rush.. .

[@TravyBallerton]

Yeah hes scored some nasty goals like that, and you are recalling correctly

[@TheVirusOfHumanity]

Nice rebound win after that terrible loss in a dominant game against the Caps.

[@Kedbuka]

Exactly right

[@KBA4life]

Yup

[@Rorschachqp]

The Caps game, gotta give Lindgren his credit. What should have been a 4 spot was instead a 1 goal game.

[@controlleddemolition9112]

MacKinnon trying to do a "Magic Johnson" -- ie, calling his own fouls -- didn't work out so well. First he embellished, then he turned to whine instead of back-checking. Kings are playing the best hockey in the NHl right now, and this is coming from a Rangers fan.

[@larsandersson5974]

Backchecking is less fun. Leave defense for the defenders :-)

[@eggrolll]

Just Mackinnon being his usual self. Biggest fairy in the league. He's so good, yet such a diva.

[@vincentlaforest1756]

@@eggrolll If he embellished that much then why didn't he fall? I remember a time when people were saying Crosby was the biggest diva in the league. I guess you guys are just jealous of greatness.

[@edschramm6757]

@@eggrolll he is a diva to a degree, but nowhere NEAR what mcdavid is. when he makes crysby look like he's not complaining, it's bad.

[@juckoosaurus]

Moore's goal 🔥

[@sirefromtheshire]

From a Ducks fan, its nice to see the Kings doing so well. I'm a fan of the game first and foremost, but I love seeing Southwestern hockey thriving. Kempe has really turned into a beast for the Kings. Also happy that Talbot is working out for the time being because I know goaltending was a big worry for them. Same with Byfield. Some guys just take a little longer to develop. Terry was our late bloomer, although he was not a high draft pick.

[@obey2dmax]

You have at least a couple of young studs: Carlsson and Mintyukov. Aside from Zegras and McTavish.

[@sirefromtheshire]

@@obey2dmax yeah man we have a lot of killer rookies. Growing pains right now

[@5Rodneyterr]

oufff that Nate backcheck was brutal. Coach cant be happy with that

[@StayMe7o]

Previous play by play man was way better and exciting

[@reindeerheadgames]

A freakin beautiful game.

[@seun9957]

😁😁😁Avs scored first, but that was the only goal they scored. Kings won 4-1. Trevor Moore got 12 goals of the season. Peirre Luc-Dubois is a little bit disappointed. He's off to a slow start with the Kings. Go Kings Go!

[@mitsanut5869]

It took Moore some time to get comfy with Kings, too. Give him some time. He will be ok. He's just not used to being on such high quality team, with so many great players, from Kopi all the way down to 4th line. He has to compete not only against other teams but he feels the pressure to perform inside the team because everyone else is hitting it on all six. He'll be fine.

[@petermihacerar1137]

@@mitsanut5869 pierre luč dubois has škilast enough for a good season! He is a big bonus on this playoff contending team!!!!

Are you f'n kidding me, Makar injured again? Another record breaking season gone. This Kings team is actually scary good.

[@paulpinball9952]

Matched by the Kings' concurrent restful week, objectively a fortuitous schedule assist. Don't nobody cry about NHL's "unfair scheduling." Live by it, die by it.

[@fantastopotomus]

[@gostfalcon]

McKinnon gets so mad at the refs causes us to lose a lot of games. He should just keep playing regardless, and not stop and look ref.

[@TheGreyCrayon]

Especially since the whistles were put away this game, and he should know better. Although, I feel that there weren’t that many necessary calls honestly. Refreshing to watch a game that wasn’t screwed up by poor officiating. Overall clean game by both teams.

[@stephen9302]

Go Kings Go! Great win against a great team (AND AT HOME!!!)

[@Aldamiras]

I don't know just yet Jim Fox...but a shot again at the Cup?

[@paulpinball9952]

Overlooked by the Talbot-Copley haters was Sunday's 60-minute squeaker over the San Jose Sharks, won by the New York Rangers and Jonathan Quick, 6-5. I'll take Kings goaltending.

[@russell-di8js]

not often recently we see the avs humbled so easily! fair play u kings play lovely hockey!

[@vincentlaforest1756]

Humbled? Lol Kings just had 3 perfect/unstoppable goals, other than that Avs were pretty much in control of the game.

[@vincentlaforest1756]

Rematch on Jan. 26, let's see who comes out on top then.

[@bigles9083]

Kings fan heads up to Ave fans .I do not beleive your going to win another Cup with Gorgiev in the net.I saw him play against Kings when he was a Ranger.His stats and play look like a back up then.

[@mitsanut5869]

Avs defense did not help him at all. None of the 3 goals was a one he'd wish to have back. One was laserbomb redirect, the other was 4 guys tik-tak play - no chance there, and the third was Moore simply being Moore - ridiculously surprising everyone with his move and quickness. He gained 6 feet on the guy with just three steps - I know only of one other player in the league capable of the same thing. Second goal was... all five Avs froze after the first of the three passes, everyone watching the puck. Would you be able to save any of these 3 goals? I really don't think so. And I am Kings fan. But you gotta be fair here. It's incredible how cocky so many Kings fans got lately. Things may change very quickly here and Kings may find themselves in a slump, one or more key players could get injured.....it's a long season, and at the end of it, it all meant nothing if Kings won't go very deep in playoffs. We are hardly one quarter of the season in and so many of you already see Kings at the top of the mountain. Anyone remembers Bruins last season? Hello....!

[@o339o9]

Don't be too cocky, the kings have the weakest goaltending tandem in the west. Talbot and copely? LoL are you kidding me?

[@grantl7384]

[@POSS99]

​@@grantl7384according to athletic article that came out not too long ago, only two goalies in the west (demko, hill) made the top 5 goalies list. And johnathan quick currently has better stats than both talbot and copely. So I have no idea what you're rambling about

[@dae3xt]

yes. the kings are more popular than the LA GALAXY. not sure what LAFC is?

[@tionlover]

It’s weird cuz even tho hockey is getting more popular in LA, the lakers are exponentially more popular. Can’t forget those rich folks who come to the game during the 2nd period. But it is more popular than soccer for sure.

[@tionlover]

@@Kirill_is_a_HOFer97 no, but the kings winning in 2012 definitely made some peeps hop on the bandwagon. So, even if their favorite sport ain’t hockey, they can still like it and casually watch it.

[@blackrabbit5115]

@@Kirill_is_a_HOFer97 Salt detected 😂 The Kings have just as strong a following as any other hockey city in the country. Every single team in the league drops attendance numbers during bad years, including whatever sad team you root for. If you want to cry about fair weather fans go have a look at Chicago's attendance record over the last 20 years

[@scrub_jay]

@@Kirill_is_a_HOFer97 The team has been in LA for over 50 years now. If they weren't popular they would have moved long ago. The team does not command the public consciousness the way the Lakers and Dodgers do, not even close. But the fans are dedicated and for many families now 3 or 4 generations deep. Attendance does not tell the full story in LA as there are so many entertainment sources vying for attention, unlike in MN or Canada, but even in 2019 when LA finished in last place, they were middle of the pack in attendance, with better total numbers than BOS, NYR, WPG, and OTT.

[@audibletapehiss3764]

Let's see, when did they teach us to never stop playing when you don't get a call? Thinking I was about... 11? Worse than that, it still wouldn't have been a goal if he'd backchecked at all, I mean at all. Could it have been called a slash? Sure. But it wasn't close to being a "must call." Refs don't own that goal, MacKinnon does.
