The Golden Knights really never got going in this one. A mistake in their own end handed Colorado the first goal of the game. Then a couple more, one in the 2nd and another in the 3rd, were enough to dig a deep enough hole Vegas couldn’t get out of. A rough night in Colorado, but now home for four more.

One of those nights. That puck should be in the Colorado net, instead it's in behind Subban. And they aren't going to win this review.

If you don't pull your goalie in this situation there are 2 reasons.
1) You don't believe pulling your goalie can help you score
2) You are quitting.VGK has pulled their goalie many times before, so they must believe it works. Thus, Gallant has thrown in the towel on this one.

In Subban’s last two losses, the Knights have scored a grand total of zero goals.
Yakety Sax should be the music of choice for the Knights defense on the Avs first two goals. Fluke bounce on the third.
Marchessault is in a serious funk.
This team needs blue line help above everything else.

It makes sense to pull your goalie when you have a team with a strong power play performance which of course we all know doesn’t include Vegas. Yes you have nothing to loose but a three goal deficite is quite a hill to climb even with a great power play scoring record. Another sad loss and Colorado got the breaks. We bounced a couple off the iron but couldn’t buy a goal.
