@LAKings874 The clear answer is Jeremy Roenick.

I can’t see a coach that has a lot of options coming to coach the Kings unless he just wants to live in Los Angeles for non hockey reasons.

@KeruboSk I have found my people!

Behaviors that can quietly be signs of ADHD: 1. Walking into a room and instantly forgetting why you went there. Your brain changed tabs before the page finished loading. 2. Ignoring messages for days, then replying with anxiety. Not because you do not care. The longer you wait, the heavier the reply feels, until opening the chat starts feeling stressful. 3. Constantly needing background noise to function. Music, YouTube, podcasts, TV, pacing, multiple tabs open at once. Silence can feel mentally unbearable. 4. Starting tasks only when panic kicks in. Your brain treats urgency like fuel. Without pressure, even important things can feel impossible to begin. 5. Hyperfixating on a new hobby, then abandoning it suddenly. For two weeks it becomes your entire personality. Then one morning your brain quietly uninstalls the obsession. 6. Re-reading a text 10 times before sending it. You are not proofreading for grammar. You are scanning for any possible way your message could sound annoying, rude, awkward, desperate, or “too much.”

@DopaminePlsMe My favorite: "We currently do not have enough stock to fill your request, and expect to have more in 2-3 business days". Every single month.

Your prescription is ready for pickup ADHD hears: complete this timed side quest during business hours, bring ID, interrupt whatever you are doing, remember it on the correct day, and do it before the thing that helps you function stops helping Some treatments come wrapped in the symptoms they treat

@Favwontmiss ADHD/OCD combo is quite the internal discussion when getting rid of something.

ADHD has a tighter link to difficulty letting go of objects than OCD does. Not because you are a hoarder. Because your brain uses objects as memory anchors. Getting rid of the thing feels like getting rid of something you need.

@kevin_jordan__ No

Adderall replaces your ADHD with a different person. The work gets done but the version of you that gets it done is unrecognisable. By 6pm your partner says "you've been weird today". You don't have an answer.

@calstanvard The Kings would have had McDavid playing in the AHL for 2 years if they drafted him.

What sucks is if the LA Kings were competent enough to draft Dorofeyev or Sennecke those two young rising stars would've never been playing NHL games. They'd be in Ontario just wasting away. After 4+ years they'd be called up then given 4th line minutes then sent back down.

@Kingstorian @LAKings The Glen Murray shot off the crossbar at the end of the 2nd period in game 7 will forever haunt me.

On May 6, 2001, Felix Potvin became the first goaltender in @LAKings' history to record back-to-back playoff shutouts. Potvin made 33 saves, and Glen Murray scored the game-winning goal in double overtime in a 1-0 win in Game 6 versus the Colorado Avalanche. #LAKings #GoKingsGo

@CofRedCentral Kings fan here, still excited about our 1st overall pick from 1967.

The Atlanta Flames debuted in 1972, they never had a 1st overall pick. The team then moved to Calgary, Alberta, in 1980. The Calgary Flames, in 46 years, have never once had a 1st overall, or even a top 3 pick. That’s 54 years in total. Spare me with your team is unluckier.

@AwakenedOutlaw It's going to be shaky videos, fuzzy pictures and pages and pages of data and witness accounts. Basically, the same stuff but with official acknowledgement.

This is the part I'm super anxious to watch unfold. Not sure how it's all gonna flesh itself out, but we're going to find out. What I do know is that, for me, it won't change my belief in God, regardless. That's 100% unshakeable. Where are you guys at on the matter?

@upshine3 The perfect appointment time is 7am. You miss the morning traffic (and people) both ways.

nothing ruins a person with ADHD's day like a 3pm appointment

@anishmoonka I had a parrot companion for 23 years until she got sick. It's been 3 years and I would do anything to hear her songs again.

Every night for years, a parrot named Alex told his trainer the same nine words before bed: “You be good. I love you. See you tomorrow.” One night, he said them one last time. He was found dead in his cage the next morning. His trainer, Irene Pepperberg, had bought him from a Chicago pet shop in June 1977, when he was about a year old. She had just finished her chemistry PhD at Harvard. Most of her colleagues thought studying a parrot was a waste of a career. Back then, scientists believed birds couldn’t think. The phrase “bird brain” came from that belief. They thought you needed a big mammal brain to think, count, reason, or know your own name. Alex spent the next 30 years proving them wrong. He learned over 100 English words. He could identify 50 different objects, 7 colors, 5 shapes. He understood “bigger” and “smaller” and “same” and “different.” He could count up to six with 80% accuracy, and was learning eight when he died. He understood zero. He knew that “nothing” is itself something. Most kids don’t grasp that until age four. Alex was a parrot. He once invented his own word for an apple. He called it a “banerry,” because the inside reminded him of a banana and the outside of a cherry. In December 1980, a research assistant took Alex into a bathroom and held him up to the mirror. He had never seen himself before. He tilted his head, studied his reflection, and asked: “What color?” That was a first. No animal had ever asked a question about itself before. The assistant told him “gray” six times. Alex used the word correctly for the rest of his life. The first time Pepperberg had to leave him at the vet overnight, he watched her walk toward the door and said, “I’m sorry. Come here. Wanna go back.” She kept telling him she would be back tomorrow. She made sure she was. Every night, when she put him in his cage at the end of the day, he said the same nine words: “You be good. I love you. See you tomorrow.” On September 5, 2007, he said it for the last time. He was 31. Grey parrots in captivity usually live to 45 or older. The autopsy found hardened arteries. A heart attack or stroke had probably killed him in his sleep. Pepperberg called it the worst day of her life. The New York Times wrote his obituary. The headline was “Brainy Parrot Dies, Emotive to the End.” Scientists still argue about whether Alex really understood what he was saying. Pepperberg never claimed he used real language. She called it a two-way communication code. But when she remembers the last night, and the same nine words she had heard a thousand times, there is no argument left.

@KeruboSk If you start talking about something I'm not familiar with, I will use all brain power to find a connection, any connection to find a path from that, to something I can relate to. If there is no path, my mind disconnects and moves on.

5 signs your “communication problems” could actually be ADHD: 1. You interrupt people constantly You’re not trying to be rude, your brain just knows the thought might vanish if you don’t say it immediately. Why? ADHD often affects working memory, making it hard to hold onto thoughts while waiting your turn. So you jump in before the idea slips away. 2. You read messages but never reply You open the message, think of a response… and somehow never send it. Why? This is linked to prospective memory. Your brain struggles to remember tasks you plan to do later. Reading the message feels like completing it, so your mind checks it off as done. 3. You overshare without meaning to Thoughts come out as quickly as they appear, with little to no filter. Why? Executive function, which normally helps regulate what you say, doesn’t step in fast enough. The result? Your thoughts go straight from mind to mouth.

@pixiedrink In all fairness, most Kings fans understand how messed up our organization is. I found myself cheering for the Ducks last night and had to stop and question my existence. Congratulations, and good luck in the next round!

@CaseySoftware @ltgiv Reading 'pink stuff' just triggered a memory that I don't understand.

@ltgiv I got the pink stuff, lots of audio tests, and even an IQ test that made it into my "permenant record" In high school I got access to it (nevermind how) and asked my guidance counselor how they had it.. there was a note that I was tested in elementary school :|

I don’t know, whatever the cool one is.

@HawkEmDownChris Suck------Cup-WCF-Cup-Suck---‐----‐---------

Yes or No: You've seen your favorite NHL team win a Stanley Cup in your lifetime.

@edgaralandough I have to empty the dishwasher and make coffee for tomorrow morning. This will take me approximately 7 minutes, but I am going to go ahead and not do it now, but instead, think about having to do it for the rest of the day until the last minute.

If you have ADHD and "time blindness" means you genuinely believe you can shower, dress, and drive to work in 7 minutes... this account is for you.

@ADHDMemess I am bad at math because no one ever told me how it all works.

@IliadRy Young players are better for the future than old players. Scoring goals is important because they use that to determine who wins. Stopping goals is also important, but you shouldn't build a team around it.

The Kings offseason outlook should be

@DannyDeraney @lindacohn I have the worst record when it comes to sports betting, so I put $100 on the Avs.

@lindacohn Thank you for giving us 1 win the av's series. More than I would have.

And so it begins. The most unpredictable first round in all of sports. The Stanley Cup Playoffs. Going all in on a few potential upsets. #StanleyCup #nhl #stanleycupplayoffs Avs in 5 Wild in 6 Ducks in 7 Vegas in 6 Sabres in 6 Lightning in 6 Senators in 6 Pens in 5

Veteran buried his eldest and it’s not looking good for his two others. Posting for any connections, help that can be made while they fight for time.
