The Vegas Golden Knights needed something to get their confidence and swagger back and the San Jose Sharks filled the bill, as the VGK won 4-1 victory at the SAP Center. The VGK somehow find a way to beat San Jose just about every time these teams get together and yesterday’s matchup, as strange as […]

Is There a Reason To Be Concerned?
There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. You should be concerned if the team you root for isn’t scoring enough and is losing more games than they’re winning. Unfortunately, that is the case for the VGK currently in this 3-game losing streak where they have been outscored 12-3. The Vegas Golden Knights have lost […]
Even with Jack
The Golden Knights haven’t scored a goal in the last 8 days. In hockey time, that’s 139 minutes and 46 seconds. Reilly Smith scored their last goal 14 seconds into the 3rd period against Edmonton on February 8 in their 4-0 win. Since then, the VGK have been shut out in 2 consecutive games for […]
In a word: Embarrassing
Following the Edmonton game, I praised the play and goaltending of the VGK in their complete 4-0 win against a division opponent. Well, last night, it was just the opposite. The Calgary Flames embarrassed the VGK with 6 unanswered goals in their dominating win at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Alberta. Is Calgary that good? Or […]
VGK Play Well; LB Plays Better
The Vegas Golden Knights played a good game last night against the Edmonton Oilers, but Laurent Brossoit played better. He held down the high-flying Edmonton Oilers and kept Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl off of the scoresheet to preserve a shutout in the VGK 4-0 win in Edmonton. The win keeps Vegas’s perched on top […]
Welcome Home Tucky and a Few familiar Faces
Alex Tuch and a few familiar faces were at T-Mobile last night, but the VGK had no plans to roll out the welcome mat beyond the video tribute in their dominating 5-2 victory over Buffalo at T-Mobile last night. You can almost call the Buffalo Sabers “VGK East.” They have 5 former VGK players on […]
Can You Be Happy and Pissed off at the Same Tim...
Well, if you’re a VGK fan, this is more than possible and it all has to do with their game last night against defending Stanley Cup Champion Tampa Bay Lightning. As I watch games, I takes notes that help me recap my thoughts for these posts. At the game’s 10-minute mark, I wrote, “First 10 […]
A Tough Knight In Florida
The Florida Panthers this season are an offensive juggernaut, especially at home. They average over 4 goals almost every game and have the best home record in the entire NHL at 22-3-0. They’ve scored 53 more goals than they’ve given up in 44 games. So to say the VGK had their work cut out for […]
One Point That Got Away, 3 Points out of 4
The Vegas Golden Knights lost a heartbreaker in overtime against the Carolina Hurricanes, despite two goals in the third period from unlikely sources to tie the game. Vegas never led in the game, but they hung tough and stole a point and now have 3 points of a possible 4 in the first 2 games […]
I Owe Panda An Apology
Robin Lehner had a bounce-back performance last night against a team he has history with. The last time he faced the Washington Capitals was on April 6, 2019, while he was with the NY Islanders. On that night he shut them out by a score of 3-0 stopping all 29 shots. Though Lehner had been […]
