TRH RECAP 44: Kuemper Tantrum
KINGS 1, WILD 2 (SO)
The LA Kings are back, baby!
Fresh off a 3-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks, the Kings had another easy win in their sight as the injury-depleted Minnesota Wild headed into Staples Center.
I mean, the Kings have all-world goaltender Jonathan Quick starting against Darcy “Das” Kuemper!
That’s been the Kings problem all season long: Goaltending.
Goals? Psh, who needs those!
Kings play Wild tonight and Koivu is out because he just got surgery…. Yes.

Rooting for injuries is the best part about sports.
Ciekawe komu @marcinhartman kibicuje bardziej w takim meczu jak dzisiejszy Wild – Kings… A przecież remisu nie będzie. To jak to jest? ;)
— Jacek Kasprzyk (@jacekkasprzyk) January 7, 2014
Oh, silly Pole, teams can’t tie in the NHL!
Wild play tonight vs the Kings.. Still don't know how they won the cup 2 years ago
— Anne (@AnneReneeMN) January 7, 2014
I think they won 16 games or something.
Why on earth is everyone all excited about Pretty Little Liars when the KINGS PLAY THE WILD TONIGHT?!? #gokingsgo
— Brenna Humphreys (@BrennaHumphreys) January 7, 2014
Can't wait to watch the kings pound the wild tonight
— Nick Spiess (@realnickspiess) January 8, 2014
Hate it when wild plays the sharks, ducks, or kings in cali because they play late
— Eduardo (@EduardoSo_) January 8, 2014
Pot of coffee is brewing to keep me coherent during Kings-Wild.
— Giles Ferrell (@gilesferrell) January 8, 2014
FUCK THE LA KINGS! FUCKING BITCHES! LO
— Dysfunctional Bubble (@PurpleRainQuin) January 8, 2014
So the Wild play the Kings tonight….. NO Koivu, Parise, Harding….. gonna be tough but I got faith….gulp gulp…
— A-A-RON (@Throne2Success) January 8, 2014
Time for the Kings to fuck the Wild in there mouth.
— ParkerXXX (@ParkerDaniel) January 8, 2014
Kings on paper should drop 4 or 5 on the Wild tonight
— Nick (@ScoreyWebster) January 8, 2014
For those of you that aren't asleep or frozen, puck drops between the Wild and Kings in 10 minutes.

…let’s just get this over with.
FIRST PERIOD:
Is Bieber at the Wild/Kings game? That's all I care about.
— Bryan Horwath (@bryan_horwath) January 8, 2014
Amen.
Kings v Wild. Not sure who to root for. Bonus: it’s Gene Simmons night. #kiss #hockey pic.twitter.com/PfyIcTzwra
— Angela Dallman (@angeladallman) January 8, 2014
…
Honestly if the kings lose they need major help cause they have a Team USA goalie and the wild have a third string goalie on a mediocre team
— Brady Meyers (@BMeyers30) January 8, 2014
Haha right?!
Fuck the kings MINNY ALL THE WAY #Wild pic.twitter.com/58MfjYDtPh
— Angay (@angeeybarra) January 8, 2014
This game is really low energy. Come on Kings and Wild. Let's make it interesting at least.
— Rachel Donner (@rmiriam) January 8, 2014
There, is that better?
SECOND PERIOD:
Kings had the puck for about 5 minutes in the Wild zone right there and took a grand total of about 2 shots. NICE.
— rob (@__robertf) January 8, 2014
Kings out shooting the wild 30-8 holy shit This is total dominance. Unfortunately Kemper is on his game.
— El Diablo Blanco (@KingTrueThor) January 8, 2014
you'd think I'd be rooting for the kings but I'm not GO WILD GO! Ps Minnesota is so much hotter BAHAHAH not sorry
— Mary Grace Sumner (@MGrizzle135) January 8, 2014
Sweet mother of God, what do the #LAKings have to do to score a goal here!!!! ???? #GoKingsGo SOG Kings 29-wild 7??? Yikes
— Reggie Dunlop (@johnnydonutzzz) January 8, 2014
Staples Center is roaring! Kings leading the Wild 30-8 on shots but it's still scoreless in Los Angeles. #GoKingsGo
— Edwin Guevara (@edguevara7) January 8, 2014
LA kings fans need to chill the fuck out. Just because the puck is in Wild zone, doesn't mean it will GO IN. Leave the hockey to us..
— Mistica Schumer (@MisticaRose_S) January 8, 2014
No Parise, no Koivu. Wild getting outshot 30-9 in 2nd period in LAK. Game is scoreless. Kings getting Kuempered
— Jeff Paterson (@patersonjeff) January 8, 2014
The wild are just getting rocked against the kings
— Jenna Hofmann (@Jen_Dogg) January 8, 2014
Hey! The Wild were in the Kings' zone!
— Tony Abbott (@TonyWiseau) January 8, 2014
This game is just as boring as I knew a Kings vs. Minnesota Wild game would be.

Solid game for Darcy Kuemper through 2 periods… Wild and Kings tied at 0
— Kyle Darge (@KyleDarge) January 8, 2014
Are you shitting me the kings have outshot the wild 30-9 that's horseshit
— Alycia Kaye (@AlyciaKaye1) January 8, 2014
Kings have 30 shots. Wild have 9. It's scoreless. Rum. More rum.
— Isaac Rosenthal (@IsaacMRosenthal) January 8, 2014
The Wild and Kings game is boring me to death
— Wiser (@benwise1990) January 8, 2014
zzZzzzZzz
THIRD PERIOD:
Stoll you muthafucking beast
— Aidan Arango (@AidanArango13) January 8, 2014
What a Fucking goal by Stoll man that was nice he spread that goalie like a lose bitch!
— Andrew Segura (@AndyZ1o) January 8, 2014
Quite possibly the sexiest Kings goal of the season! Carter around the back and spots Stoll wide open for a five hole shot!
— Kevin Ryan Porter (@KevinRyanPorter) January 8, 2014
Jarrett Stoll angry o-face alert!
Can The Wild get penalized for "Embellishment" as they are making The Kings look way better than they really are?
— Mark Zallek (@MarkZallek) January 8, 2014
Uh, what?
NIEDERREITER!!!!!
— #10 (@JaviBats15) January 8, 2014
Wild tasoihin! NINO NIEDERREITER! #nhlfi #änäri

NIEDERREITER FUCK YES
— the flyin' hawaiian (@Lewandoski13) January 8, 2014
Welp, that was quick.
Uhhh – is that Eric Cartman in the background on Wild-Kings broadcast?
— Brian Stensaas (@stensation) January 8, 2014
Why do the #Kings have Cartman from South Park leading their chants? I can see if it was done in CO but in La?! #dumb #wild #NHL
— David Swenson (@Dswen) January 8, 2014
Great job by the wild getting a point outta this game on the road against a healthy kings team
— Zak (@Fleetwoodzak) January 8, 2014
Kings and Wild go to OT. I go to sleep profitable. Can't ask for anything better.
— Me Ow (@FightClubbing) January 8, 2014
And gamblers can go to sleep happy.
OVERTIME:
I hope this kings and wild game goes into a shootout, that would be cool
— Joey Noto (@noto_joey15) January 8, 2014
Haha wild win kings lose Zacs pissed tv is mine I'm happy
— Shaina Gillmann (@shainarosee) January 8, 2014

1. Darcy Kuemper
Kuemper starting = yikes. Yeo might be lucky so many guys are hurt. Keeps his job safe.
— Jarick (@JarickL) January 7, 2014
Sounds like Kuemper might start for the Wild tonight. I can't imagine what is going on with Backstrom, but this could get real ugly.#mnwild
— Colin O'Brien (@ColnOBren) January 7, 2014
Not even worth watching the Wild game tonight. Kuemper in net tonight.
— Travis Scott (@tscott651) January 7, 2014
Why on Earth is Kuemper starting tonight?!
— Brady Livingston (@SkoulaForNorris) January 7, 2014
I don't like our chances with Kuemper in net, every game he has been in was aweful. #mnwild
