Yes, Marc-Andre, the 2.3 million people who live in Clark County thank you, the 628,711 who live in Las Vegas thank you, the 18,000-plus who somehow got their hands on the hottest ticket in sports and were lucky enough to witness your amazing performance at T-Mobile last night thank you, and I thank you. The VGK took […]
Knights on Ice — Holy Schmidt!
Nate Schmidt played no part in the scoring that beat the Winnipeg Jets by a score of 3-1 to even the Conference Final series at 1-1. And what he accomplished might go unnoticed by the casual hockey fan who didn’t watch the game and simply checks the Internet or local paper for the box score […]
Knight on Ice — Jets Buff the VGK
The night that was expected to be the barometer on how this series would play out went as badly as it could have for the Golden Knights. This was especially true in the first seven minutes of the first period, in which Vegas surrender the same number of goals they allowed in the entire L.A. […]

Knights on Ice — Calm Before The Storm
When the SS Gallant left the dock last night, it had three new crew members and the seas were calm. The new crew members, who helped beat the San Jose Sharks 5-3 in Game 5 or Round 2, were a result of a less than stellar fishing trip that the Knights embarked on in Game […]

Knights on Ice — Keeping Up With The Joneses
How often, in hockey, do you hear the phrase “keeping up with the Joneses”? It usually refers to the struggle to maintain your daily responsibilities, while keeping pace with your neighbors, who for simplicity sake we call the Joneses. But in last night’s game, Martin Jones was the better goaltender. Yes, in no games of the Knights’ […]
Knights on Ice — The Game with Multiple Story L...
The first story line is that a few VGK fans might be scheduling EKGs with their doctors today to make sure there was no lasting damage to their hearts from last night’s game. Those whose heart rate didn’t flutter a few times in Vegas’ 4-3 win over the San Jose Sharks have nerves of steel […]
Knights on Ice — An Interfering Night for the K...
Just when nothing seemed to interfere with this team’s improbable mission, along came a game that seriously challenged its unimaginable path. Having two goaltender interference calls in one game is extraordinary, but for both to go against the VGK is almost unheard of. Vegas also sent a parade of players to the penalty box — […]
