Recap: The Golden Knights hosted the Winnipeg Jets for their second home match of the 2022-23 season. It didn’t take long for the home team to take full control of the game. Jack Eichel scored quickly followed by goals from William Karlsson and Chandler Stephenson. Late in the 1st period, Eichel tapped in his second goal of the game to give Vegas a 4-0 advantage.
Winnipeg got on the board in the middle frame, but Vegas goaltender Aiden Hill stopped any further damage. After 40 minutes the Golden Knights held a 4-1 edge.
In the final period the Jets were able to sneak one in but couldn’t get any closer as the Golden Knights locked it down the final 10 minutes and tallied an empty netter in the final seconds.
The Golden Knights record improves to 4-1 on the young season defeating the Jets 5-2. Vegas will next hit the ice Saturday night against the Colorado Avalanche. Puck drop is scheduled for 7P PT from T-Mobile Arena. (Recap by Jason)
Analysis: The Golden Knights came out looking for blood early and the Jets played right into their hands. VGK outskated them, outworked them, and dominated stick battles on their way to a 4-0 lead. From there they basically coasted to the finish line. (Recap by Ken)

And that my friends is why you do not pass the puck back to the goalie in this sport.

Credit the VGK for playing extremely well for about 30 minutes against both Calgary and Winnipeg. The Jets were coming off of a back-to-back with Colorado, so I give the first star to the Avalanche.
I have to give the 2nd star to Eichel for two goals
I give the 3rd star to the designer of the new Retro Jersey!
Sorry, but I am still not convinced that this team has the legs in the long run to make the playoffs. I am not sure what it is, mental mistakes and a lack of toughness. Probably a bit of both.
I know, I know. I shouldn’t be bitching.
This team needs more consistency for an entire 60 minutes, not just 30. And that’s my biggest point.
Pistol Pete
Come now R-R the Cassidy VGK are playoffs bound!
Richie-Rich
PP, They could make the playoffs, it’s possible. But they need some added toughness that they don’t currently have on this roster to own the ice in front of the net in the OZ & DZ. They’re getting manhandled in that area and it wasn’t even close in Calgary.
TS
Rr, agreed. The Flames were brutal. Hits all over the ice. Did we respond? Nope. We absolutely need to TOUGHEN UP. If March can deliver punishing hits on 240 pounders, then the rest of the team needs to step up, too. NO FLUFFBALLS ANYMORE!
TS
I remember fondly when I weighed only 240 pounds …Go LVGK!
Blitz
Eichel misses the empty net for the hat trick and Alex Tuch hits the empty net for his hat trick. Queue Alanis…isn’t it ironic.
Sorvino
Blitz, Is Alex Tuch living rent free in your head?
Just kidding. Talk about who ever you want. It’s okay
TS
Logan was really good tonight ! He is just what LVGK needed! Unfortunately I missed the 4th period – somehow it went off the air on my rabbit ears TV
Mister Mister
You’re trolling Is not super good.. Raise your game! I will be waiting for something better
knights fan in minny
you will be waiting a long time from fake ts he likes to play his little imature game
knights fan in minny
you have used the rabbit ears thing before you stupid fuck fake ts the thug of north las vegas
TS
Fake TS, Mommy hid her undies, again, didn’t she?? Too bad you’re not mature enough to wear your OWN. GROW UP, MOMMY’S BOY.
Emmanuel
Theyre playing well even in the loss. I dont get the criticism.
Knights fan in minnie
Many here are just angry loser types – you think it’s easy being named after Minnie Mouse?
knights fan in minny
do you get some sick kick being a dumb as fake ts get down to the store and get some malt liquor boy
Sorvino
I got nothing to complain about. No team is perfect. Love the 4-1 record. They can address the added toughness closer to the trade deadline.
Bobby
Amen brother!
TS
Great 1st period. Gotta score 1st to set the tone. Score often, other team forced to play catchup. Our offense kept
possession well, kept the game in OUR control. It seemed that last season WE were chasing pucks, fighting from behind.
HOW ABOUT THAT MONSTER HIT THAT MARCHY PUT ON THE 240 POUNDER ON THE BOARDS!! HEY, D, CAN YOU GUYS DO THE S-A-M-E ?? PLEASE???
THE hockey GOD
and last nite in the NATIONAL…………..
the Ducks managed to stay afloat against bruins losing 2-1 in OT ( the Pacific Division teams are doing amazing well this season, in case anyone hasn’t been noticing)
Habs dog pounded Arizona 6-1, interesting fight in this game (worth checking out) and the goal by the rookie and his reaction is just plain Frankenstein. The guy is nuts.
The Leafs fell on Dallas in OT 3-2
The Pens iced the Kings (on a long road trip) 6-1 Daryl must be happy.
the blue jackets jurassic parked Nashville 5-3 as the union army scored 4 goals in period three- both teams are close to 2-3 on season
the rangers got sharknado’d by San Jose (now 1-5) in OT 3-2
the senators filibustered the Caps 5-2 storming back after being down 2 -0
the islanders were completely surrounded by the Devils 4-1, the Skipper wasn’t happy , both teams are 2-2
the wild sneaked by the winless Canucks in OT 4-3
the Edmonton turned the Canes into a category 1 tropical storm6-4
the Flames got dosed by Buffalo 6-3 (so the VGK took something out of Flames
as they bounced after coming off their high in last game). Daryll Sutter is NOT a happy camper. Does he ever look happy behind the bench ? IF they gave out a trophy for grumpiest looking coach in league, he would get it by light years.
Both teams are 3-1. Tuch got his third goal of season
Vgk gave the jets a soft landing despite the Manitoba team ping, pang, plink, bing, bang , bong repeatedly hitting the iron and Jets’ announcing TV team (much better than arrogant Flames homers ) lamented over and over and over again “they just missed with that one”, “an inch to right and they got a goal”. “Jets are all over VGK, that one JUST went over the cross bar”. “Next time we will be ready , we play them again in ten games”. ” Whitecloud and few others are from the Manitoba area, Kelly McCrimmon is putting his stamp on this team with home grown boys”.
THE FIFTH LINE
(fans in the stands)
TS
Thg, Sutter just about busted a nut a couple times in our meeting! My lip- reading app told me Sutter has quite a command of the F…ING language…LOL…
THE hockey GOD
@TS
ha TSN Sport center
(Canadian equivalent of ESPN, exactly the same set up), put a floating cloud over Sutter’s mouth when they did the high lights !
Ts
Guy has a permanent troll frown on. Must be a JOY to play for!
Henderson One
I like Cassidy’s style.
Pistol Pete
Second that! How the coach does Q&A is not everything but I do like listening to Bruce more than Gallant and DeBoer. Besides how he sounds I like his overall approach to coaching.
TS
Henderson, DITTO!
Mauldin
Hard to imagine a more ignorant blowhard than this ThG loser…at least TS is just plain dumb and lonely…and Minnie is just plain angry about being alone and named after a Disney female mouse…this fan base is a total joke

Good WIN, period! Goaltending still very solid. Now, bring on those AVs!
Pistol Pete
Avs minus Landeskog helps plus a back-to-back even if it is just the Kraken.
knights fan in minny
teows is out to
JV
If the Misfits can start a game together, I’ll have SinBingo!
Tim
The obvious great start by the Knights. The worry is last two games score all goals in the first and then for forty minutes the well goes dry. Need a little more of the killer instinct. Looking forward to Colorado and Toronto coming to town good teams to measure our progress in the new system.
knights fan in minny
good team effort hill was just fine should be a fun one against the avs winning is fun
Sorvino
I can’t wait until tonight’s tilt against the Avalanche. I am sure we are all on the same page that the goaltending has been very good all be it in a small sample size. This has not been the case for some other teams.
