I'm not even going to justify this game with a lengthy recap. It's one thing to lose at home against the best team in the league. It's quite another thing to lose at home to the worst team in the league two days later. The Kings ended an eight-game losing streak with their 3-1 win against the Avs.

The good news is that Jordan Leopold contributed offensively and Jose Theodore won't be getting many more starts this season. Other than that, I'll just try to forget about this debacle.

Stars of the Game:

Three Kings dudes.

See the thing is

Those "good things" you mentioned, Well Leos goal was essentially a soft goal by Aubin, it really wsn't the best looking thing on the planet.

And both goals scored on Theo hit the post and went in, It was hard to fault them on those, trust me I tried.

Yeah he's right

And scoring 1 goal didn't help either. I mean, those two goals weren't that bad, but come on, did you really expect a shutout from Theodore? Or Budaj for that matter? I guarantee we will lose every game of the season with either goalie if we only score 1 goal in the whole game.
