This has been quite the roller coaster year for the Kings and I suspect specifically Marc Crawford. The team started the year post London with an eight game losing streak. The team sleep walks through a game against Dallas and somehow royally rebounds in the last eight minutes or so to make history with the five fastest goals in team history. Oddly, that loss for Dallas and win for Los Angeles triggered far less predictable results.
The Stars end up firing their general manager and Dallas goes on a huge winning streak. The Kings follow that game with far more losing than winning. That created quite the sticky wicket where some started counting how many games it might take for Crawford to get the heave ho.
I have made no secret of the fact that while I am not sure he was the right choice. Now that he is here, I believe he should stay at a minimum this season. Any organization that goes through fifty percent turnover in players at the AHL and the NHL levels needs some stability. The blame game also rarely works anyway.
