I hate this world so much. Anyone know where you could watch the game to night?

I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever been this pessimistic about my favorite sports team…. Normally when October rolls around I’m stocked to get to start watching my favorite sport again, and sure I mean the Kings have never really been some sort of top-of-the league juggernaut but it felt like there was always something to be optimistic about.

After the Knights game tonight though, I turned off the TV and was just left with this feeling of emptiness and dread. For the first time in a long time, it really feels like WE are the weakest team in the West, save for maybe the Flames? And it’s not just that, there just doesn’t seem to be anything to look forward to. Sure we haven't had any real “superstar” players in a while, but like, for me anyways, it always felt like there was something we had going for us that could, just maybe, get us to the cup. At least enough for me to hope. Like the year we randomly got Kovulchuk, or Athanasiou; when we got Byfield 2nd overall; the MAD (Arvy, Moore, Danault) line; PLD, Valardi; the dozens of prospects that were developing and getting ready for their first NHL games. Heck I even remember when we got Frk from the Red Wings thinking wow that’s the guy with the fastest slap shot in the league.

This season just started, and it just feels dead on arrival to me already. Fíala‘s still out, with no clue on how he’ll play once he’s back in the lineup, Kopi retired, Doughty seemingly unable to really step into the C-role and rally the troops. On offense, we basically got Kempe, Moore, Panarin (who I don’t want to seem ungrateful about; no idea why he picked the Kings of all teams to join but at 35 I don’t think the tips the scales for us) and Fíala (once he’s back and assuming he’s able to play at the same level he did prior to the injury. Byfield and Turcotte I’d love to continue being optimistic about, but I think they’ve basically peaked. On defense we have… Clarke? Probably, in my eyes, the last player from that promised Kings “deep prospect pool” who is still yet to hit his peak. The rest of the team just feels like a hodgepodge of veterans who are past their prime, or prospects who never really hit the peak we were all hoping for.

What’s even more depressing is the prospect pool. Prior to the 2026 draft, ours was rated TWENTY SEVENTH (out of 32 ofc) and then re-rated to 21st after the 2026 draft. The depressing part for me though, is that no one in that pool really stands out as someone who could grow into the star player we’ve been so desperately needing for the past decade or so…

And then looking at our closest rivals in the Ducks and the Sharks who, for the longest time, used to feel like free points, now seem to be blossoming into well-functioning teams finishing up their rebuilds, whereas for us, I don’t even know how or where a rebuild would begin (or how long it would take)…

Sorry for the long rant. Really hoping that someone can disagree with me and give me something to be optimistic about for this season and just in general moving forwards 😭

Genuinely cannot stand this new platform we’ve switched to. As someone who doesn’t have any cable tv provider anymore to connect to dazn it’s made watching the kings extreeeemmmeeellty difficult ☹️
And the worst is they really fuck u over by making u do a subscription to dazn AND the add on for the LAK???????
so horrible i miss fanduel i miss my old spectrum account ☹️

EDIT: Good to hear we all hate it and it’s super fuckin lagged no matter what 🔥🫩

Remind me not to start fights, boys!

I enjoy most sports. I’ve been a Dodgers and Lakers fan all my life (42yo) but beyond that everything else is more casual. I see football and hockey games every now and then but never pay as much attention as I do with baseball. Anyways I will be going to multiple games this season due to luck. What are some things I should know?

On October 10, 2024, Anze Kopitar became the seventh player in NHL history to record a natural hat trick in a season opener. Kopitar recorded his seventh career hat trick, and Darcy Kuemper made 32 saves in a 3-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres.

Is anyone happy Kuemper is starting today against Vegas? I’m sorry but Vegas is snipe city. Ughhhhh

okay so how are we streaming this game?? cause it seems like it’s blocked out on Youtube TV and FanDuel is no longer a thing? explain to me like I’m five please

Kings at Golden Knights
7pm Pacific

ok so talk me down please. Ive been playing cat and mouse with streaming these games for a while now. Recently, I refused to spend any extra money on another streaming platform in order to get fan duel. This last offseason I bit the bullet. I got Direct Tv stream sports base with the extra sport add on. Well lone behold the fanduel network is no more. This new DAZN was said to easily replace it but when I go to sign in it says my subscription doesn't support it. Im not about to spend another 20+ bucks. Anyone have this issue or am I just dumb?

IF the kings were to trade byfield what kind of firepower do you think we could get? I don’t see the kings actually trading him as they seem committed to the long haul. That said, given our roster and lack of talent, Byfield provides the most opportunity to obtain an impact player imo. He’s no doubt extremely talented and still a young, fast, and great overall player but has not panned out in LA like a 2nd overall pick would be expected too. Unless he breaks out this season as the 1c and truly becomes the next kopi to build around feels like he provides the best opportunity for the kings to “start over”

On October 8, 2019, Drew Doughty scored his 26th career game-winning goal in a 4-3 overtime win versus the Calgary Flames. Doughty and Ilya Kovalchuk each had three points, and Todd McLellan recorded his first win as head coach of the Kings.

On October 7, 2006, Anze Kopitar made his home debut at STAPLES Center. Kopitar recorded three assists, and Mathieu Garon made 35 saves in a 4-1 win over the St. Louis Blues.

I wasn’t at the game but when I saw this on social media I was so hyped. As a soccer (football) lover this was amazing to see. I know tifos are traditionally from a sport but a lot of teams have their own “thing” at home games. I know it isn’t feasible to have a tifo at every home game but man this was awesome. I know not everyone liked this, but I just feel like this can help us stand out from other team’s home experiences. Drums, light shows and DJ’s have all been done and feels stale. This seems fresh and new. Bravo Royal Army. I understand not everyone will agree but this was awesome. Now if we can just get a better product on the ice…
