Ben Shelley: Kings suffer another first round exit against Oilers with Game 6 loss

Blake addressed everything in the last year except the main problem. He needs to fire McLellan or this'll just happen for a 3rd year in a row, and if that happens, he should go, too.

Not the coaches fault they came up against the Oilers again. Or are you blaming McLellan for how they finished in the standings thus putting them against the Oil two years in a row?

This kings team doesn't have a single superstar on the team, aside from Doughty and Kopitar all contracts are under 10 million, and are a damn good team. How many teams in the league can say that?

I didn't say anything about the Oilers and what you said could've been used to excuse the Panthers for having to face the Bruins and the Kraken for having to face the Avalanche. No matter the opponent, a coach isn't free from blame because any team can be beaten.

True but some teams are just superior.

Do you think that the Oilers would be superior if they were still coached by McLellan and the Kings had a more competent coach?

Probably. the Kings are a good team with good players, but Edmonton has the better impact players. I dont think the coaches are the difference makers.
