Entering the frozen waters of T-Mobile last night, the wounded VGK came face to face with the Sharks, never a good idea with real sharks or with a San Jose team that’s been on fire of late, now winning five straight, while snapping the VGK’s win streak at seven (one shy of a franchise record). Last […]

Knights on Ice — The Business of Hockey vs. Bra...
The Vegas Golden Knights continued their winning ways last night with a 4-2 victory over the downward-spiraling New York Rangers at T-Mobile. The Rangers have lost four games in a row and have been outscored 22-5 in the process. These are two teams going in opposite directions, as the VGK have won seven games in […]
Knights on Ice — Pirri’s Replacement, plus the ...
The guy who replaced James Neal back in September and replaced Brandon Pirri just the other day not only scored for the second game in a row, but they were back-to-back game-winning goals. Max “Patches” Pacioretty deflected Shea Theodore’s slap shot from high in the zone off his pants to beat the New Jersey Devils by […]
Knights on Ice — Not in The Moment, but Patches...
Yesterday’s 3-2 win was against the Anaheim Ducks, a team that just over a month ago was ahead of Vegas in the Pacific Division. That was then, this is now, and the Knights have won five games in a row. They’re 16-3-3 in their last 22 games, while Anaheim has lost seven games in a […]
Knights on Ice — A Very Pirri New Year
The new year is only a day young, but things are just like they were in 2018, especially for Brandon Pirri who keeps scoring goals game after game. Last night he scored his 6th goal in 7 games and his 9th goal in just 9 games as a VGK. His goal last night was the game winner […]
Knights on Ice—Play Hard, Play Quick, No Mistak...
The words in the title could be said by a coach to his players before they hit the ice, but Jonathan Marchessault isn’t the coach. He’s not even the captain. But he is for sure one of the leaders of the first-place VGK. That’s right: first place. And not just first place in the Pacific […]
Knights on Ice — Finally
Finally, Malcolm Subban gets a win and with this win, the Vegas Golden Knights become the last of the 31 NHL teams to have a win credited to their backup goaltender. Truth be told, this should have happened sooner; in the prior five games Subban started, Vegas scored only six goals total. He played well enough […]
Knights on Ice — Siegfried and Roy, Copperfield...
Las Vegas is known for having some of the world’s best illusionists. Siegfried and Roy, who made elephants and tigers disappear right before your eyes, are probably the most famous, though they’re followed closely by David Copperfield, who not only disappeared the Statue of Liberty disappear in New York Harbor, he poofed away a jet […]
Knights on Ice — VGK Head into Christmas Break ...
Bad breaks happen; they’re part of playing sports. But recently the VGK seem to be on the wrong side of everything that could possibly go wrong. Last night they kissed away another valuable point away to their division rival L.A. Kings in their 4-3 loss at T-Mobile. Just like Saturday’s game against Montreal, this one […]
Knights on Ice — C’est Ce Que CR...
When you believe “it is what it is” in Montreal or any French-speaking country, you’ll hear “C’est ce que c’est.” As a fan, there was nothing you could have done about the events that transpired at T-Mobile in the overtime loss the VGK suffered to the Montreal Canadiens by a score of 4-3. Unfortunately, a […]
