Not sure why people are so shocked, LA has been one of the worst offensive teams over the last few seasons and once again cannot produce, especially on the PP.

A cup doesnt change those numbers and shouldnt have changed peoples expectations either.

They are built for the playoffs and are once again going to be scarey as heck in them but from a fantasy owners perspective unless you are talking multicat leagues, they are a team to steer clear of.

I don't understand their offensive woes though.

Doughty, Voynov, Martinez, Muzzin... their backend has decent offensive capabilities.

Kopitar, Brown, Carter, Richards... these are all guys with 200+ sog totals in multiple years, 3 of which have performed at point per game paces.

They don't have to play worrying about their goaltender, Quick has the skills to hold down the fort.

The tools are there, why can't they score? It is a complete enigma to me.

But 2 of the three only put op PPG pace for a few seasons.

Stanley's hangover perhaps? Any other Doughty owners feeling a small squeeze lately?? I ranted and raved about OEL and Gaborik last week to a buddy, and they suddenly exploded for some points. Let's see what a Dobber rant will do to Doughty's point totals.

Are you listening Drew?? Anze it up and get it done

As a fellow Doughty owner, I feel your pain. DD plays the #1pp, #1pk and is on the #1 shut down Dman pairing. Sutter needs to find a way to lighten his workload. Preferably on the pk role if you own him in fantasy. Injuries to Greene and Mitchell have not helped out the situation.

Well, no goals as of yet but 2 PP assists tonight and an assist the last game as well. Some signs of life at least!

I am not doubting Doughty as being one of the most talented D players in the league but the 59 point season he had was the anomaly not the other 3 with 40 or less points. He is not the fantasy stud you all seem to think he is. He is a very very average fantasy Dman. Elite in reality but very average in fantasy circles. Get the hell off fantasy island, you will not see 59 point seasons be the norm for this man. He is 45 with a upside of touching 55 once or twice more.

IMO the most talented d-man currently playing in the NHL.

But he has a lot working against him:

- Defensive system
- LA's offensive woes and being among the leagues worst in GF each year
- Being relied on heavily a la Keith the other year... Mitchell and Greene, the two stay at home d-men on the kings are both on the shelf so Doughty is being leaned on heavily defensively
