00:00 So LA is in a wild card right
00:07 now.
00:07 I watched I've seen him on
00:09 their long road trip.
00:10 You and I used to talk about
00:11 by field.
00:12 He's turned into a player you
00:14 and I knew he would turn into a
00:15 player.
00:16 He's got the size the hands the
00:17 skill.
00:18 Are the Kings fine to make a
00:22 wild card because I got to tell
00:23 you those three teams in front
00:24 of them are all playing
00:25 fantastic hockey this year.
00:27 Yeah they should be in a playoff
00:29 Scotty.
00:29 I think I give him like a 97
00:31 percent chance that at least a
00:32 first wild card maybe creep up
00:34 because they're not much
00:35 distance between themselves
00:36 Vegas and Edmonton.
00:37 You know Mark Stone goes out
00:38 with an injury.
00:38 He might be done for the entire
00:40 regular season.
00:40 So they're going to be in the
00:41 playoffs.
00:41 My question is right now if the
00:43 playoffs started today they
00:44 play Dallas.
00:45 Would they have a puncher's
00:46 chance against Dallas.
00:47 Yeah.
00:47 Would they beat Dallas in the
00:48 seven game series.
00:49 Probably not.
00:50 But again there's still road.
00:52 There's still 30 some odd guy
00:54 games to play.
00:55 But they're going to be in the
00:55 playoffs.
00:56 And if they start playing the
00:57 way they have on a Jim Hill and
00:59 they continue that because
01:00 they've been better and he's not
01:01 afraid to mix up lines he's not
01:02 afraid to mix up a pair of
01:04 defensive pair combinations.
01:06 I think could be a dangerous
01:07 team right now.
01:08 I don't think so but I want to
01:09 see how they play down the
01:10 stretch.
01:11 The goaltending scuba rod
01:12 themselves and the one thing
01:13 that they do have Scotty that's
01:14 been consistent all year in this
01:15 year of inconsistency that the
01:17 best penalty kill in the NHL and
01:19 some of that is scheme but a lot
01:20 of that to do a goal tending
01:21 you go through the series
01:23 especially if they play
01:23 Edmonton again in the first
01:24 round.
01:25 The first the best power play a
01:27 penalty kill in the league.
01:28 They might have a shot of
01:29 beating Edmonton this season.
01:30 We'll see what happens.
01:31 (upbeat music)
