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 […]

With just 30 seconds left in the first period, Nicolas Roy scored his 8th of the season on the power […]
Despite Being Depleted, VGK Find 1 Point
The Vegas Golden Knights had a phenomenal inaugural season, followed by 3 seasons of moderate success, making the conference finals 3 of their first 4 years. But we all know what the ultimate success is in the NHL and only one team can achieve it. It has been an incredible 4 seasons for them and […]

No doubt about it, the situation in the title will be uncomfortable for everyone in the room and last night it happened. Marc-André Fleury returned to a place where he is loved to this day, a place where he played 192 games during the team’s first 4 seasons, winning 117 of his career-total 502 games, […]
VGK Stay Focused And Avoid The Emotion
It’s safe to say that the return to T-Mobile was emotional for both Ryan Reaves and Gerard Gallant, but once the video tributes were shown to the 18,117 fans in attendance, the VGK got down to business and did not let anything derail their night with an impressive 5-1 victory over the New York Rangers, […]
