We'll do a Periscope after the game on Monday to discuss the pair of games against Minnesota and look at what that matchup might look like in the playoffs.
Hint: No matter what happens Monday, I really like it for Vegas.
"I thought it was one of our most complete games. How it's supposed to look." -Cassidy
This really was the perfect get-right game for VGK. No question who was the better team all night long and against a team right up there with them at the top of the conference.
VGK absolutely ate John Klingberg alive on the 6-on-5 situation. Every time he got the puck they threw pressure at him and he cracked over and over leading to the empty netter. VGK win the first of the home and home.
This period was heading the wrong direction for a while at the start, but VGK have turned it around the last few minutes and are looking to extend the lead, not just sit on it.

Speculation* is that since there has been basically no trade-related news between other teams coming out, that McPhee is just collecting picks and prospects from other GM’s to allow them to keep their desired rosters intact (i.e. Minnesota and Anaheim). So on June 21st (nothing can be leaked before then) during the “big announcement” for trades, you will see a bunch of “X team gives Golden Knights a 2nd round draft pick”.
C’mon Knights! You’re boring the NHL before you even take the ice (with your more boring team because your GM took draft picks instead of players). ; )
You are Las Vegas! Where’s the flash? The sizzle? The drama!
*This is speculation. For the excitement of your fan base, let’s hope this does not happen, and you ice the best team possible next season (although all those picks will give you the better team 5 years from now). 😀
