I'm sort of in the same boat, was reminded of tentative plans to go out for drinks with friends who are in town, so I'm kind of hoping those fall through..... I'm not crazy set on driving to Vegas on a whim, but I prefer watching these games live. |

I saw someone explain it as the DPoS is nothing more than a front to help protect against CTE lawsuits and protect the game's image... so, the post whistle stuff doesn't matter nearly as much to them, since they only care about the image of the game itself being overly dangerous.

I find myself always rooting for any team from Canada. My childhood team was the Sabre's but that isn't ever going to happen in my lifetime.

Avs are playing defense pretty well. Grub is on point. But man, they just cannot get setup in the Knights' zone and apply any offense. 3 shots per period ain't gonna cut it.

Vegas has outplayed the Avs for 3 straight periods now with nothing to show for it. Yet...

Ava just look bad, rantenin(sp) can't handle a puck to save his life again. Luckily this team can Score quick. And we score lol

Grub is keeping them in this game big time. They finally got some decent shots that period. MacKinnon just barely missed a couple. Had a stretch where the spent most of the time in the Knights' zone. Still need more shots...

Just the kind of loss I had envisioned before the series started that would extend the series..... Vegas with their three high energy 3rd lines, mucking it up and getting offense through a lucky bounce or two.
They're the Wild on steroids, which is impressive in the sense of being able to sustain the high energy and muck up the Avalanche in dominant fashion for most of 5 consecutive periods. Money well saved... yet sadly, outside of going tomorrow, if they advance to the next round, their next opponent is looking like Wild Jr. |

I do like how Bednar will push buttons and focus on what his team is doing, plus sitting the top line to start the 3rd.
And random positive note, keeping MacKinnon back on the power play and at the end of the game really pays off... just let him go coast to coast or make space from the blue line in. Quote:

Bruins Islanders can't quite fighting. Pastrnak just missed the most wide open shot I've seen all year....
