Anyone else trying to juggle watching this and the Game Awards at the same time?
QB 😫😫😫😫
I saw QBs first goal in New York (shootout)
All grown up now, so beautiful
I’m feelin the QB hatty tonight
Watching QB emerge as a star before our very eyes is awesome.
Quinton Fucking Byfield baby! So happy for him . Haters calling him a bust are in shambles
What else can you say at this point?
Fucking Q, man.
Fiala’s stick died a hero. 🫡
Love Kopi and Q doing the Spider-Man meme pointing at each other.
Kopi QB Juice Fiala and DD, not by percentage but I think it’s the best PP line in the NHL
KINGS COUNTRY…
on a flight to nyc to watch the boys play the rangers and islanders!
King Q has arrived.
It’s really refreshing seeing QB realize that he’s a big guy and will (continue to) score goals by being a net front presence. I could shed a tear 🥲
hoo boy. what a fuckin stud QB is. I’m so happy he’s having this year. What a difference
I just wanna say how impressed I am about how good Drew and Kopi still are. It’s kind of crazy
Kings forechecking pretty aggressively for 3-0. No mercy at all

Hopefully a hat trick from Q on this period with by Kopi getting his 4th 🍎

Good save by Talbot
12 minutes to make history
Thousand oaks remains 🔥 in goal scoring
In the midnight hour she cried Moore Moore Moore.
THOUSAND
TONTM left alone? Clear mistake
Always shocked when we bury a break away.
I fucking new Trevor was gonna score!
Trevor “God Hands” Moore
Pucks? Deep.
In? The net.
Oaks? Thousand.
Moore on the breakaway!!!!
Crank the music 🕺
Might give an assist to the linesman lol
H I S T O R I C A L G A M E
THOUSAND OAKS SNIPER, TREVOR MOORE!
What a joke of a franchise, lucky ass team playing boring hockey. Have fun getting knocked out in the first round.
pedal to the metal boys!! no more sitting with a lead on my history making team!!!
Sure is nice to see a team that can take a lead and hold it, even build on it.
I can’t remember the Kings ever being this consistently solid.
Doughty gonna be limping
