When the resiliency of the VGK was put to the test last night in Vancouver, they responded, scratching and clawing their way back multiple times. With the score 2-0, they scored to close it to within one; Vancouver regained the 2-goal lead in the 2nd period to go back ahead 3-1 and the VGK scored again. […]

Knights on Ice — “Are You Trying To Get Me Fine...
These were the exact words from Coach Gallant in his post-game presser following the 3-2 VGK win when he was asked about some of the penalties that were called against the VGK last night at T-Mobile. Gallant’s response tells you that he, along with the 18,220 in attendance, minus a few Wild fans, were not […]
Knights on Ice — All Aboard The Pacioretty Expr...
Last night, the Pacioretty Express was full steam ahead and the entire team was on board as they crushed their division opponent, the Vancouver Canucks, 6-3 in a crucial 4-point game at T-Mobile in front of 18,066. The win propelled the VGK over the Calgary Flames and the Edmonton Oilers into 2nd place in the Pacific […]
Knights on Ice — Subban Holds off Dallas until ...
The VGK won their 17th game of the season last night, 3-2, just 51 seconds into overtime with a goal by Max Pacioretty. Patches took a stretch pass from Shea Theodore, who caught the Dallas Stars changing lines with the puck on Theodore’s stick just inside of his blue line. The VGK have tortured teams with […]
Knights on Ice — 20 Minutes
This was a game of 2 teams headed in different directions. The St. Louis Blues had lost their last 3 games; their goaltender, Jordan Binnington, had given up 15 goals in his last 3 games and was pulled in his last game. The VGK were 5-1-1 in the last 7 games and Marc-André Fleury had […]
Knights on Ice — RX Fleury
Rx: a medical prescription. The symbol “Rx” is usually said to stand for the Latin word “recipe” meaning “to take.” Last night Marc-André Fleury was exactly the medicine the VGK needed or had to take in their dominating 5-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. This is no way a sign of disrespect for Malcolm Subban, who played […]
Knights on Ice — In Just 14 Seconds
The Golden Knights outshot the Rangers 17-7 in the first period last night. Then the roof fell in at T-Mobile in front of 18,236. “We played really well for the first ten minutes,” Mark Stone said after the game. “The chances were there. We bury one or two of those and it’s a completely different […]
Knights on Ice — A Good Feeling Falls One Point...
“It’s a good feeling. We had a real good road trip,” Vegas Golden Knights Coach Gerard Gallant said. “If we keep playing like this, we’re going to win a lot of hockey games.” Yes they are, but last night’s game ended with mixed emotions when the New York Islanders beat the VGK in overtime by […]
Knights on Ice — Can U Say 4 in a Row
Yes, just a few games ago, a few of you who are reading this were ready to trade Malcolm Subban for a box of tape. Someone even suggested that Coach Gallant needed to be replaced, under the opinion that his voice was falling on deaf ears. And then if things couldn’t get any worse, Marc-André […]
Knights on Ice — 3 + 3 +3 = 9
Alex Tuch has three goals in the past two games after going nine straight without one. Malcolm Subban has won three consecutive games after failing to win any in his first six starts of the season. And last night at Madison Square Garden, the VGK beat the New York Rangers 4-1 for their 3rd consecutive win […]
