Last night at T-Mobile, the VGK played an important divisional game against the Calgary Flames who currently are in first place and started the evening 9 rather large points in front of the VGK. But for the first time in all but 2 games this season, the VGK finally had all top-6 forwards in the […]

Knights on Ice — Quality Over Quantity
In Wednesday’s loss to the Anaheim Ducks, the VGK lost despite scoring 2 power-play goals and 2 shorthanded goals. Last night the VGK scored only 1 PPG and 1 SHG on the way to a dominating performance, beating the Arizona Coyotes 7-1. The onslaught started with the patience of Nicolas Roy and Jonathan Marchessault on […]
Knights on Ice — In Spite Of, Notwithstanding, ...
Whichever you prefer, the results will be the same when you’re using these words to describe last night’s Vegas Golden Knights game vs. Anaheim, that Vegas, despite scoring 2 power play-goals and 2 shorthanded goals, somehow found a way to lose by a score of 6-5. It was a strange game, as the unlikely occurrence […]

By the headline, you’d be correct in assuming that the VGK had a good night at T-Mobile against the Edmonton Oilers. But that didn’t happen. The VGK self-imploded in the last 2 minutes and 10 seconds of the first period, allowing Edmonton to score twice on their last 2 shots of the period. Robin Lehner […]
Knights on Ice — One Step Closer
Granted, it may be just baby steps, but slowly, the VGK are getting their players back into the game. Last night Max Pacioretty returned from a fractured foot and William Carrier returned to the lineup in last night’s 5-2 victory over the Nashville Predators. Pacioretty had been out since Oct. 14 and Carrier since Nov […]
Knights on Ice — It Took Just 2:15
The VGK have had first-period woes this season, but seemed to eradicate them when Chandler Stephenson scored just 36 seconds into the game, followed by Reilly Smith scoring his 6th goal in the last 7 games at the 6:50 mark of the first period for an unexpected and quick 2-0 lead. But in just 2:15, […]
Knights on Ice — 40 Minutes
The VGK’s 1st period starts have been suspect, along with their powerless power play and once again a slow start put them in an early hole in last night’s game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Columbus scored just 45 seconds into the game on a goal by Gustav Nyquist; then Alexandre Texier added a shorthanded […]
Knights on Ice —Knights Define Resiliency
Yesterday, the VGK did not even have a morning skate, which is the norm for a game day. In the morning, they were down 11 players to injuries, COVID, or surgery. Yet somehow, this team refuses to let anything get in its way. Not even the Detroit Red Wings, who had never lost at T-Mobile. […]
Knights on Ice — No One Is Feeling Sorry for th...
After last night’s loss to the Carolina Hurricanes at T-Mobile by the score of 4-2, Captain Mark Stone was asked if he and the team could take any solace in knowing that the VGK overcame a 2-0 first-period lead by scoring 2 goals in the second period to tie the game with a lineup that’s […]

The Vancouver Canucks came roaring out of their locker room and scored the first 2 goals on just 4 shots in 5:56 of the first period for a quick 2-0 lead in last night’s game at T-Mobile. But the Vegas Golden Knights responded by scoring 7 of the next 9 goals for the 7-4 win. […]
