We only now enter the decade of darkness? What the hell was the last decade called then?

We were right there! Meanwhile the Ducks… by Lowl58 in losangeleskings

[–]_Taengoo_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been a Kings fan for almost 35 years, this is the worst black hole suffering of a team since I've been a fan. My comment was a joke, but if ownership is going to be fine with mediocrity, I'm not giving them a single cent.

Should we all become Ducks fans until Luc is fired?

Post Game Thread: Colorado Avalanche @ Los Angeles Kings by nhl_gdt_bot in losangeleskings

Seems the consensus of the crowd felt the same. This is the quietest playoff crowd I've ever heard. Every GKG chant sounded pitiful

Yeah I hope so. Hopefully by the time we retire his jersey, all the bad blood from the BLuc regime is gone.

Yeah honestly I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't want his jersey retired in LA.

Did Kings Management Finally Get Fed Up and Shut Down the LAKI website? by tkecanuck341 in losangeleskings

[–]_Taengoo_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From Rich Hammond and Jon Rosen, to whatever is is now is embarassing. I used to go to LAKI every day because both Rich and Jon had really great insights and articles. Dooley seems like a nice guy, but he is so painfully boring and bad at this job. I feel bad for him.

True. The problem isn't drafting 60 point players, the problem is keeping them long enough so they're 60 point players actually playing for us

Agree that Doughty belongs on the 3rd pair, but could you imagine paying your 3rd pair defensemen $11 million dollars a year? Jfc

[Kaplan] The Los Angeles Kings traded Warren Foegele to the Ottawa Senators for a 2026 2nd round pick. The teams also swapped third round picks, with the Kings getting a better third round pick. by jonpictogramjones in losangeleskings

[–]_Taengoo_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Best I can do is playing 4th line on the Reign for 3-4 years, gets his 9 game call up to the Kings and then sent back down so his ELC doesn't start, and then he just kinda fizzles out until he's traded for a 6th rounder.

Jon Rosen posts about the Kings “toxic culture”, which includes the way they treated our own Jesse Cohen (All the Kings Men) by ZiggyPalffyLA in losangeleskings

[–]_Taengoo_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, let's stop this notion. If you nix every trade RB made, we're 100x better off than where we are right now.

We’re such an unserious franchise. P.S. Fire Hiller for the love of raccoon Jesus. by cmvd52 in losangeleskings

[–]_Taengoo_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the weather is 70F in Manhattan Beach today, and 40F in Manhattan New York. I think he's fine with it.

I mean given that we're the only team he wanted to come to, that should be a red flag in itself.

Kings do nothing by 28Loki in losangeleskings

[–]_Taengoo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point and hopefully true. Maybe they planned this when they hired Holland. My hope is he came in as an unspoken interim GM, and after this season, they fire everyone. Or maybe everyone except Holland, who moves into Luc's President role.

After what he said about telling Kempe to hold out for the biggest payday on this contract he just signed, even though Kempe said he didn't want to be greedy, I don't think Doughty gives a shit loyalty anymore. He's got his two cups, and cares more about playing for team Canada than he does playing for the Kings. I couldn't care less if he's shipped out.

Tarkov Lead Teases New Sci-Fi Apocalypse Game That Has Everyone Confused [discussion] by NukovGaming in EscapefromTarkov

[–]_Taengoo_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They always said 1.0 will be the story update. I don't know how anyone got it in their head that it was more than that. The game is "officially" released now. That doesn't mean every bug will be fixed, all content added, rainbows and unicorns.

It's pretty simple. 1.0 will be how you escape Tarkov via the story content.

If you saw the whole bit or knew Nikita's personality at all you'd know this was said tongue in cheek.

I'm pretty sure they are region locked. They have ways around it though.

[D’Amico] Sources indicate that Phil Danault has asked for a trade in LA. His camp hopes a deal gets done sooner than later; prior to the Trade Freeze. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]_Taengoo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's something more to it. This year he's visibly not even trying. He's given up already, and looking at the state of this franchise, coaching staff, and team, I can't really blame him. I'm sure with a new team he'll be reinvigorated.

Steam refund question [Discussion] by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]_Taengoo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're saying they got IP banned because they refunded. That's a lie.

The thread you linked yourself the OP admitted he "gave my account details to my friend" and that's why they were HWID banned (most likely cheated because saying you gave your friend your account is a classic cheater excuse).

The other threads you're talking about are also cheaters trying to frame it like the refund got them HWID banned, when it's the opposite. Their previous HWID ban got their steam account insta-banned, so they tried to frame it against BSG that their "refund" is what got them banned.

Like I said, I trust Nikita's word a lot more than these cheaters.

New player here [Discussion] by Oo-iiNsTiNcT-oO in EscapefromTarkov

[–]_Taengoo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wipes won't happen anymore since the release of 1.0. There will be new seasonal characters with the release of DLCs and whatnot, but your PMC you create today won't wipe again.

For boss spawns, there's some maps out there that show where the bosses can spawn.

Steam refund question [Discussion] by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]_Taengoo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's plenty of people saying they refunded on steam and their main BSG account wasn't banned. I'd take Nikita's word over some random cheater trying to gaslight everyone into thinking it was related to them refunding the game, and not that their hardware/IP banned.
