[voice of an anthropologist] after careful research and data gathering (5 mins of dicking around on the pages of a bunch of kings replyguys/beat reporters/pundits) eye believe i may have cracked the code : u can tell how frothing mad someone on kingstwt is by what naming convention they use to refer to a player.

Non-exhaustive List:

nicknames them (i.e. juice, Q/QB, kopi, arvie, real deal akil, big save dave/BSD): good bet they’re pretty happy with the player, usually followed up by a clip of said player popping off or some reportage of a stat that makes the player look good.

last name: they’re in Analysis mode and want to seem objective — they aren’t. they never will be. yeah twitter user clarke for norris, you definitely have no biases here babe!!! (they’re just like me fr CALL CLARKIE UP TO THE NHL RN IM SO SERIOUS JIM HILLER)

initials+player number: they’re a tumblr sleeper agent and this is their dogwhistle? (<- working theory)

SPECIAL subcategory!!! Pierre-Luc Dubois Derangement: they never call him dubie (that’s reserved for the actual la kings players and the apologists girlies [gn]) but they will call him PL, PLD, Dubois, 80 — and no matter what, without fail, they will find a way to point out his contract.

using NUMBER ONLY: they’re killing this player/players to death with rocks and want to seem objective but likeee… it comes off as MAJOR overcompensating 2 me <3

common/key phrases:

engaged: vibes-based barometer of how hard they think my disasterwife PLD is trying during the game, varies from person to person but generally stays within the same neighbourhood of agreeing with each other

intangibles: ok i wasn’t present for this one when it happened but jim hiller/kings management is obsessed with Andreas Englund “having intangibles” , which means Clarkie can’t come up from the AHL and everybody disliked that to the point “intangibles” is a meme.

sidebar — things i know about englund: he’s a swedish guy who looks like he churns butter in an apron while living in a cottage, but is actually the kings’ playoff goon (???) he’s STAPLED to jordan spence, who is a much better dman analytics wise and also eye test wise (funniest shit ever is how well spence does away from englund, even funnier is how often kingstwt brings it up)

the 1-3-1: the la kings’ hockey system. 1 guy out the front, 3 guys clogging up entry lanes through the neutral-zone/their own d-zone, 1 guy hanging back. no1 on kingstwt likes it and has wanted it gone for years — still, when the discourse comes around they immediately close ranks to become the biggest 1-3-1 proponent EVER. they will protect the sanctity of their hockey god-given right to play whatever the fuck system they want to!!! even if it’s incredibly annoying <3
