If you’re not from Brooklyn or not Italian, let me help you with this explanation about how you should feel about the VGK’s first regular-season four-game losing streak in franchise history. JUST FORGET ABOUT IT. There’s nothing anyone can do about it. When you score just 6 goals in 4 games, chances are pretty strong […]

Knights on Ice — The VGK Stumble from Their Bye...
Last night, the Vegas Golden Knights returned to the ice after being off for eight days and it showed. In a very unKnight-like performance, their play was sloppy in all areas of the ice in the 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes in Carolina. It was also their third loss in a row and the fifth in […]
Knights on Ice — 47 Saves on 48 Shots, and 20 S...
Juuse Saroys is currently the backup goaltender for the Nashville Predators, but you’d never know it watching him play against the VGK. Last night he saved the game for Nashville and was the best goaltender on the ice at T-Mobile. It’s a cold day in Las Vegas when your game storyline is about a goaltender […]
Knights on Ice — The Wild Leave Vegas with 2 Po...
Last night was a tough night to be a VGK player and fan, but it was even tougher to be Brad Hunt, who left Las Vegas with the Minnesota Wild on their plane following the Wild’s 4-2 win at T-Mobile. Brad Hunt had been with Vegas from day one. He played in 58 games as […]
Knights on Ice — The Feel of a Heavyweight Figh...
Yes, last night’s game had the feel of a heavyweight fight, with punches and counter punches exchanged between the VGK and Fleury’s old team, the Pittsburgh Penguins. There were multiple lead changes, a comeback for the Penguins after they were nearly TKO/counted out at the buzzer that ended the first period trailing 3-1, even a […]
Knights on Ice — Power Outage in Winnipeg
Last night in Winnipeg, the Vegas Golden Knights encountered the Winnipeg Jets, the first game back in Winnipeg for the VGK since they captured the Western Conference Championship on May 20, 2018, by a score of 2-1 on a Ryan Reaves’ goal. Revo’s goal eliminated Winnipeg from the remainder of the playoffs and sent Vegas to the […]
Knights on Ice — Another Proof of the 0-2 Theor...
Those who’ve been following my coverage of the VGK over the last two seasons know about my 0-2 Theory. For new followers, the Theory is this: The next team to score in an 0-2 game will win. Last night, the Theory held true as the VGK beat the Chicago Blackhawks by a score of 4-3 […]
Knights on Ice — Wounded Knights Nipped by the ...
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 […]
