Hats off to Vegas. Great statement game. No team in the East did it so well. They've handled Florida's physical play, mitigated their forecheck and display more skill. Well done!
Florida better win the next game or they are done.
Wtf Florida even doing in finals? They just ruined the finals.
@velipulla did you watch any of the eastern conference games? Which team would you prefer to be facing Vegas?
@veritas ante omnia Florida certainly earned the right to be here. Taking out the NHL's number one team after being down 3-1 was no fluke. Vegas may want to keep that in mind.
Wow, Vegas looks unstoppable right now. This was total domination. What is going on in the Panther's locker room right now? Their strategy of out muscling the opposition is not going to work on the Knights.
Either Bobrovsky is coming back down to Earth, or Florida's game is being nullified in the right spots
Don't hold your breath, get ready for the four game choke of Vegas when Florida wins in 6
Bob is playing great but his defs are not. Florida keeps giving Vegas more opportunities. Gudas looks like a big dumb snail compared to Vegas attack he cant keep up.
@Marc-Antoine Marcoux Have to say I think Vegas is throwing a lot more high shots at Bob due to his tendency to drop to his knees. There's a lot of open space upstairs.
After what happened to Boston, I am not celebrating yet. Florida will never stop trying.
Vegas looks amazing. They are in total control
Will be happy for Eichel. He suffered too long in Buffalo
Literally this is how any of the games would’ve looked like if BOB didn’t play amazing, just shows you how far a hot goalie can take you in the playoffs
Team defense is generally far more important unless the goalie is giving up soft goals. The knights team defense has dominated every team they have played and they carry backup goalies to victory.
Hill would have given up at least 4 goals himself had he faced the shots Bob did. Flo allowing that many quality shots is just asking to lose. I think prime Patrick Roy, Martin Brodeur and Dominik Hasek all would have given up at least 3 goals too.
@Dan Raiders Warriors Sharks Giants I don't think he's insulting Bob, Bob's been amazing the last 2 games. The difference is that prior to these games Bob was god like in net, now he's just amazing. If you watched the canes and leafs series, those teams were skating circles around Florida, Bob was the only player who showed up every game.
@Dan Raiders Warriors Sharks Giants team defense is important but team defense can only take you so far. A hot goalie can steal games and series and the occasional times a cup.
These goals that are going in now Bob saved against canes and leafs. Florida team defense looks the same as it did all playoffs just Bob isn't making the same saves. A HOT GOALIE also gets the whole team to step up in defending too.
Not really. On the first they left Stone alone to screen Bob. On the second Bob's own defenseman screened him. On the third it was at close range so too little time to react plus it hit the post and barely went in. Can't get a much better shot then that. And on the fourth they left an NHL caliber forward come in alone and cross the net with speed. Florida played poorly. Bob let in at least one so so goal in a previous series yet everybody was so busy claiming he was the second coming that they didn't notice. The NHL has a history of teams that can let you spend time in their zone but not let you score because of the areas they won't let you have. Sure those teams had great goalies but who expects to win a cup with an average goalie? These people would be beside themselves if they saw Grant Fuhr or Bernie Parent play. And those guys were solid all the time. And I read somewhere here that Cary Price played bad in the finals a couple years ago. Really? I thought Montreal played bad. I didn't notice any change in Price's play. Can we try to be more accurate in our assessments? Everybody on here is more knowledgeable then me.
@Kaynen Ouch Team defense took them to a loss in this game.
Love seeing Gudas get everything he deserves
taste of his own medicine there...
Tkachuk too. "Modern Model of Next NHL Superstar!" WUT
Just need Bennet and Upchuck to get a huge dose of there own medicine as well.
@The main man *their
That Karlsson assist was very impressive. The guy took one glance when he first got the loose puck and still put it right on Amadio stick.
Absolutely an amazing assist!
Yes it was!!!
VGK carrying the puck, protecting the puck and controlling the play with SIZE, strength, good skating fitness and discipline.
I absolutely adore seeing Tkachuk look pissed off because he realizes that after the first goal they're Tkafuked.
It’s a beautiful thing to watch. Go Knights!
Then hes going to go home and see his dad who will say his team was soft (despite him never won anything)
Let’s go knights!!
TBH it’s hard to gauge his emotions while he’s chewing on that mouth guard like a teething infant.
Watching Florida's goon squad get dismantled is pretty satisfying. Especially seeing Tkachuk the MVP candidate demonstrate the self-control of an angry toddler.
The Panthers are used to having things go their way since Game 5 of the Boston series. When you have it easy for 11 straight games and then suddenly you're faced with adversity, it's like they're rattled and don't know how to respond
Florida is the goon squad?!?!?! I take it you haven't watched Vegas at all this year.
Just remember, Panthers were down 2-0 to the Bruins too. Knights did what they had to do. Nothing more, nothing less.
@Ze Moose dummy, they were down 3-1 to the Bruins. Not 2-0.
@Brian Benoit vegas just has enough physicality to match Florida, and it made them mad. Vegas was unmoved by Florida’s antics.
Go knights go! Can’t say enough at how proud I am of this team. Gotta keep playing like this though. Play like you’re down in the series and you guys can finish this off. You can do this guys! Also I really hope Eichel is ok. I know he came back and even got another assist but hockey players are tough. Sometimes they come back even through injury . I hope he can just be ok enough to finish this series . Come on hockey gods. Just a little more magic !
Panthers run reminds me of the Habs run in '21. Each with least points to make the playoffs. Each relying heavily on a hot goalie. Each back from down 3-1 in the first round. Each swept an opponent. Each clobbered in the finals against a team who had an even hotter goalie and are a much better overall team.
I have to say as living in detroit and growing up watching the wings win in 97,98 2002 and 2008 that was such a fun time. I never knew what detroit not in the in the playoffs was like in my life till recently. I knew as a kid that the red wings were special. Now you have the vegas knights... a NEW FRANCHISE lighting it up making history.. this team is special
who cares
Florida's play so far has been undisciplined and embarrassing. There were times before the midway point of the game that I couldn't help think to myself, "Florida is totally outclassed." It's almost like taking cheap shots is all they have left. I am very, very surprised they have looked as poor as they have. It will be interesting to see if they can pull it together in FLA.
All they know how to do is hit, its pathetic. They are getting dirtier and dirtier
@Jacobif you think panther hitting is dirty or even excessive, compare this to any game, any level 30 or 40 years ago.
I'm not surprised because the Bruins should have closed the door on them when they had them down 3-1...never understand what the hell happened there. Either way, whatever "gas" the Panthers had has run o-u-t. Sorry, but they're toast.
@S Ess they’re back to their regular season programming lol
Offensively they really didn’t look great against Carolina, Bob carried and then their top guys made timely plays when it mattered. But if Bob is looking human they’re very beatable, especially with how deep and balanced VGK is on both ends of the ice
Hoping Dallas attempting a comeback in the WCF series after we were up 3-0 has taught this team that it’s never over . Gotta play like this to the end . Then you’ll get a nice long break and will be Stanley cup champions! You can do it!
I hate to see this happen to Florida, but I love seeing it happen to Tkachuk.
Me to bud hope he gets what's coming to him
Yup. The Cup!!
@Phillip Davis You funny guy
@Phillip Davis not happening
Lol my exact sentiments.
I expected and hoped Florida to be the better team. But no, Vegas won the first tight fight fair and in this second one, Florida had no chance at all.
Anything is still possible, but congratulations to Vegas and all their fans. So far, they are clearly the better team.☹️=my sad Florida face
Just like i said a few months later, this team is a threat. Goal after goal after goal. They make the Panthers like a beer league team. Great win.
I’ll say it again. Luck and a hot goalie can only take you so far. Sad this is the Stanley cup finale we get not even a match. Keep it up Vegas
They beat'em like a rented mule!!!
Go Knights!
i am loving that Brett Howden has been scoring goals in the SC Finals after all those Ranger fans absolutely dragged him.
I still laugh at everyone that says we got gifted a team. We have taken players that franchises dislike and have made them great depth players.
As one of those rangers fans, I'm glad he's playing well on a good team. He's a good player just didn't perform in the big apple under the MSG lights. Some people don't. And we don't accept that. I'm just glad his talent IS on display with a good team on the main stage of the Stanley Cup Finals
@Space is Cool Man And got away with chasing a couple of shiny toys on both the trade and free agent market
@Space is Cool Man my buddy was mad that the stars lost one of their "best" forwards to the Kraken. I had to explained to him how the expansion teams worked lol. If he was the best, he'd still be a Star
Rangers fan here. I'm glad he's doing well, as he's a really good kid. However, he was absolutely awful and it wasn't down to lack of playing time. If anything, he should've spent more time in the minors. Bottom line is the Rangers do a lousy job developing young players. Good for him.
Couldn't happen to a more obnoxious team. The Golden Knights are now one of my favourite teams. They're standing up to the Panthers they way others could not.
If Vegas sweeps this will have been the craziest playoffs I’ve ever seen
Watch more playoffs
Aren’t sweeps boring? Why wouldn’t a game 6 or even 7 be way more crazy than a sweep which isn’t as fun to watch?
@Nic E that’s my point though. Florida with the Cinderella story, down 3-1 against the Bruins, coming all the way back and ripping through other top teams to get to the finals, and here we are with there being a real possibility of them getting swept. All that for nothing. And Vegas, who was expected to lose against both Edmonton and Dallas. Look at them now
@Tamman I watched them put it to my Dallas Stars. Their ability to create scoring opportunities, with great puck movement, makes them a very dangerous team. It's almost like they can score at will, when it needs to happen.
@Tamman "And Vegas, who was expected to lose against both Edmonton and Dallas."
Vegas had more points than both of them and Edmonton's defense and goalie problems never end. This one Oiler fan was telling me before the playoffs how Skinner was going to carry them to victory.
Vegas is doing fantastic at team defense that they win with backup goalies. No Vegas goalie had losing record in reg season out of 5. Dallas could not solve the Vegas defense either.
That Vegas does it without a #1 goalie is really impressive. Thompson is hurt obviously.
It isnt over but this was the Florida team we expected in the playoffs.
Vegas is about to sweep Florida. GO KNIGHTS GO
Did not expecting the series to go like this. I was afraid that long break would cool off the panthers
you werent expecting it to go this way, but you were afraid it would go this way?
I was sure that after 4:0 with Canes, the Cats can lose their fire after too long relax.
It's not the break. Florida beat Boston and Toronto, both talented but soft. And the Canes just had no offense. Vegas plays like men, where boston and Toronto played like rattled kids.
Mean reversion kicks in. Nice to see Florida return to the team they were all season.
What a great by the Knights(V.G.K.) One win closer to getting free lap dances for life at the Vegas strip clubs and of course hockey’s holy grail. Hard work pays off! - Gary.
The wives better allow it
You've always reminded me of count Dracula from sesame street there Gary🤣🧛♂
lol, nothing is free in Vegas. Even the "free" booze they bring you in the casinos, you're expected to gamble and give the waitress a $5 tip
Boooooo
Thanks you, Gary
This could have easily been a 7-0 Vegas game. Floridas first goal was pure puck luck which they got alot getting to finals. The Vegas are too good all rounded for them
After 2 of the best rounds in playoff hockey history it looks like back to back rounds of blowout city.
LOL Did you just start watching hockey? That's complete BS if you think this is great playoff hockey. LMFAO
@K Stewart Been watching hockey all my life sonny. This years 1st and 2nd rounds overall were exciting af. I'm including all teams. The last 2 rounds here ars looking to be anticlimactic. I love all the upsets. You must be a Boston fan. Lol
КРАСАВЦЫ! У Вегаса вся команда играет ровно и на высоком уровне, сложно выделить mvp плей-офф. Кубок заслужили )
Не зра оні Эдмонтона вынеслі , і Флоріду вынесуць,І Эдмантан выйграў бы у Флорыды
@Іван Савіч what?
@Іван Савіч ТО же согласен, Эдмонтон бы Флориду вынес. Вегас рабочих мужиков команда, не зря они уже были в финале.
@Brian Jones lol
@Іван Савіч Слава Украинe !!
This is prime hockey psychology. Florida's underdog role could only last so long. They sat in their uncanny success for 10 days and it got to them. Vegas, on the other hand, nearly got humbled by the Stars, but ended the series with a 6-0 shut out road win.
If Florida is lucky, the narrative of them actually being the 17th place regular season team will kick in again, and they can regain that edge. And obviously Bob needs to find that horseshoe again.
Nearly got humbled by the Stars? The Stars lost the series 4-2, same as the Oilers, except the Oilers blew the Knights away in their 2 wins. I’d say the Oilers put up the better fight. But in the end both teams lost. Knights are on fire, but you never know. Look what the Panthers did to Boston after being down 3-1 in the series.
When the score begins to get out of hand it is utterly predictable that the trailing team will resort to rough play for the sake of "trying to send a message" for the next game which is as productive as road rage.
I mean don't go out of your way, but take the opportunity to vaporize someone, so long as it's not the main focus. Try to get back in the game and make em hurt where you can, on the scoreboard and physically
Nah they just mad taking the fat L
Vegas bent Florida over the knee and showed them who daddy is, that’s about the only message sent
Man I sure hope these games get more competitive
What im saying. I don't really care who wins this Cup but I'd like it to be entertaining at least
That may have been the best open ice check I've seen all season @3:31
Eichel's inner monologue: "Mom? Thanksgiving? I can't feel the right half of my body coach."
That, unfortunately, was the only positive thing for FL all evening. They were utterly humiliated otherwise.
How about Guass getting smoked out of the game. He went to check Barbashev and found out.
The stars gave a lot more competition than this, hopefully Florida can pick it up and give us closer games, the knights are destroying them.
The last game Florida lost to Boston was a 6-2 trouncing, which made the series 3-1. And then they proceeded to win 11 of the next 12 games. I wouldn't count them out just yet.
If Florida loses on Thursday, that's when I'll know the Panthers are completely outmatched by Vegas. Florida's weak penalty kill is highly damaging.
Also, is it true that the Panthers have never won in The Fortress? If yes, that's another concern for Florida.
They've also never won a Stanley Cup Final game either. They were swept by Colorado in 1996, and have lost the first 2 in this series.
Eichel, karlson,smith, stone Theodore no goals ..7-2 and people still think FL has a chance? 😂
@Stephen Brown its 2 games. tell me you're a fairweather fan without telling me you're a fair-weather fan
Florida has finally met their match. I like to see a lot of scoring and Vegas doesn't disappoint!!!!!
Просто вынос в одну калитку! Красавцы Вегас!
Слава Украинe
Marchessault Québec represent !
Broke a concession record with 12 goals so far .
Seeing Florida getting torched like this is just pitiful. I'm not even sure if Boston playing like they were supposed to could handle his team properly.
Yeah, I agree. Florida was on fire...you expected them to match up more evenly. Vegas has gone on a whole nother level. Maybe the first game surge just took them to the top.
Bostons goaltending was abysmal. Otherwise they had Florida in the bag.
no no Boston lost like 3 games this past season (you know what i mean) its vegas. their too tough a team, expansion teams are like "super teams" bec of the fact that each team has to throw players at it.
I sort of feel bad for the Panthers at this point. First game they did a pretty great job of keeping up, but that last game- textbook example of a nightmare
На обзоре выглядит, что Вегас делал все, что хотел. Залетало вообще все. Вдохновенная, красивая игра. Хотелось бы все таки 7 игр в серии. Может Флорида найдет в себе резервы?
Слава Украин !!
Even trying to take our best player out didn’t stop him from getting points. Go Knights Go!
He wasn't trying to take him out, he was just putting a good clean hit on him to rally his troops. And it obviously didn't work because he can't control his emotions.
@Elite Trader not saying it wasn’t a clean hit but he clearly was out for Eichel. This proves one thing though, Eichel isn’t soft in the slightest.
Looks like Eichel stumbled a bit just before the hit which made it worse. Lots of bad luck in that one
Florida’s D was nonexistent, even before the game was over. And O was Tkachuck hitting everything that moves. There’s something terribly wrong in Maurice’s game plan. Why are they trying to beat Vegas in physicality only? You are a skill-based team.
I agree with everything you said. I wrote something similar.
They give Vegas too much time with the puck. 3 or 4 goals today was made by 1 Vegas player against 3 or 4 Panthers.
How? Because Florida is defending so extremely tight that at least 3/4 of them are close to the guy with the puck. They then become hypnotized and are just closing angles, instead of using their physique.
It needs to reverse. Floridas D-men have to be more aggressive and their forwards needs to be more creative and cool.
Florida team defense looked pretty inept in this game. A lot of easy zone entries, drives to the net, point-blank chances for Vegas (credit to them, of course). Could Bob have made an extra big save or two to keep his team in the game? Yes, but it was far from all his fault.
Vicious series so far lol. Dallas here rooting for Vegas baby let's go Knight's!!!
YEAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
you got rocked by vegas tho? haha
@Mister supafly Vegas choked in the last time they were at the cup. When you're franchise hits 20 years deep then brag . Good luck with your raider's lol 😂
@William Martin i hate Vegas im just saying why would you root for them when they absolutely destroyed your Stars.
Seems that the break has hurt the Panthers a lot, I was worried this was gonna happen, I don’t have a dog in this fight, but I would still like to see a competitive finals
As a Canucks fan, the way Florida is playing in Vegas reminds me exactly how the Canucks played in Boston in 2011. Just couldn’t do anything right and Vegas seems to be doing everything perfect
Согласен с Вами, Флориде надо собраться и играть в хоккей, а не толкаться на поле.
Защита провалила две игры и Бобровский не всесилен.
Пантерам желаю победы!!!
И пусть кубок возьмёт сильнейший.
Ps: Я также фанат Canucks и очень надеюсь на их достойную игру в следующем сезоне.
Panthers reminding me of Habs in 2021. Fairytale underdog run through the playoffs, only to crumble in the final. Price was unstoppable like Bob was too. But hey the series ain't over til it's over... if we learned anything from the Boston series, Cats know how to make a comeback.
I Love The GOLDEN KNIGHTS _ The Vegas Strong Slogan is in big part due to the Knights getting to the Cup in their first year. After the tragic events of Oct 1 2017 The Knights were everywhere in the city, the charitable events sponsored by the team or any vigil or hospital visit members of the team showed up & they played their asses off for one reason to help the City recover from a devastating tragedy & collectively they became invested in the city in a purely altruistic way. the team embodied the idea of "Vegas Strong a City coming together"
Флорида идёт по пути Далласа. Нервы и грубая игра сыграют с ними злую шутку. Еще не все потеряно. Бобровский сделал, что мог. Защита провалена, нападающие бьют во вратаря. Надо контролировать эмоции.
Вегас огонь, Хилл красафчег. Вся команда пашет, даже себе забили😂
Если возьмуют третью игру, ставлю коньяк в холодильник.
What?
Слава Украинe
Перегорели Пантеры видимо, Вегас просто каток...
I cannot believe that Vegas has only been in the league for 6 years and they are doing this. Amazing organization.
Believe it….new teams get all the best prospects and draft picks……that’s the point.
The NHL couldn't be happier that a team like Vegas are doing well, the gambling capital of this part of the world.
@veritas ante omnia I absolutely agree…..
Good thing Vegas is on the road for the next two games because that goal horn sure could use some rest. 😊
I hope Vegas wins, they deserve it after coming 2nd in the 1st season of being a team, they should still make a movie for that
Jonathan Marchesseaut and the club deserve the Stanley Cup
Florida looked both slow and soft in their own zone.
Yes, I thought I noticed that too.
@Henry Browne You saw it too?
@PumaTomten no he didn't lol
@PumaTomten From the highlights. I didn't see the whole game[I wish]. Vegas is fast and those quick passes in front of the net! Florida looked always a step behind.
Let's go Golden Knights!
Matthew having that many penalties and not fighting once is strange.
Only time will tell if it's a home and home series. Depends on who gets the most power plays in Florida.
Clean hit on GuASS, Dude went in for a hit and got reversed hit
Бостон, Торонто, Каролина... Ни одна из этих команд не была бы такой, как Флорида в финале Кубка Стенли. Перестал тащить Бобровский, и мы увидели истинный класс этой команды...
Ну на счёт Бобровского не согласен потомучто его расстреливали с очень точных бросков которые игроко Флориды даже не крыли,а так да Флорида себя ужасно показывает
@ROMBINSON Да его и те команды, которые прошла Флорида, расстреливали с таких же убойных позиций, но он чудеса творил, а в финале Кубка чудес стало значительно меньше!
Хватит ныть. Ребята с 3 - 1 вернулись против лучшей команды. Go cats!!
Бобровский один что ли в команде? Сами фанаты вознесли его игру до небес, а теперь начнут говном поливать. Если нет командной игры, сколько бы воротчик не отбивал, но и забивать надо тоже.
Большой перерыв, потеряна игровая практика. Так случается с каждой командой, которая ждёт соперника!!!
Good job boys!Go Knights Go!
GO KNIGHTS GO!!!
Vegas Beat the breaks off Florida, scored 4 goals on bob and 3 on lyons. We then proceeded to see Florida implode
Pretty clear that florida was being carried by a hot goalie who has since cooled off, they're a mid team at best.
FL imploded after the 2nd goal.
I'm patting myself on the back, I predicted if Hill continued his solid play, the depth of Vegas would be too much for Florida to handle, he has and it is
The knights team defense carries "multiple" backup goalies to victory and you give the credit to Hill?
Hill got the Knights a playoff shutout and I think he faced only 2 quality shots for the entire game. The majority of NHL backups should have won that game easily facing those shots.
The knights had 5 goalies in the reg season and none of them had a losing record.
Had Hill played on the Sharks this season there would have been 99% chance he would have had a losing record because the Sharks team defense looks more like Florida in this game.
The Sharks had 4 goalies in the reg season and none of them had a winning record. Had all 4 played for the knights instead that would not have happened.
Tkachuk's very hard clean hit was incredible!
Cheapshot, lined him up, that could've been a lot worse, Vegas is finally stopping the Cinderella story Panthers. I've said this for months, Vegas is a great team, Panthers got on one of those freak rolls.
Honestly, watching thus felt like playing nhl23 on rookie. I was praying this would be more interesting
Well it looks like at least one Black & Gold Team will win the Stanley Cup this year. Finish them Sir Bruce and Knights! GO VGK!!!
NHL strives in hot beds of hockey, Vegas and Florida. Recent newcomers in their second Stanley Cup final.
Классный канал ! Спасибо! Продолжай!
2:50 Bennett pretty deliberately hit Stephenson after the goal :D (He doesn't seem to be going full force tho)
Best game of the playoffs! Maurice went from "What the F___BOB" @ 1:32 to "what about Bob" to "who cares about Bob" when he gets pulled!
best game in what way? you mean as far as Vegas being dominant - then ya, ok.
Remember that meme of Vegas and Dallas hiding in the corner while the big bad Panthers where standing over top of them.... Oh what a difference two games makes
Coming from a sharks fan, the panthers look like we did when we finally got to a cup final. It's like we forgot how to play hockey and got DOMINATED. I really want Florida to be a goldfish and turn it around, but honestly, I'm not seeing it happen.
The Panthers need to slow down the knights in the neutral zone. They are flying through it and setting up good plays. Continue to be physical and a few breaks will come their way.
got to say well played knights well played. lets see how game 3 goes cos on this form the kinghts will take the series in 4 games that is my honest opinion
Nothing is won yet, but the boys have given me hope....but nothing is over yet.
You´re wrong my friend , game one and two are both won and over.
My bet is on the team with the most Canadian players! Go Vegas, from Canada!
But Florida, I still want to see some good hockey, find your stride again
What kind of silly logic is that bro?
I get you are proud to be Canadian but come on.
@Dan Raiders Warriors Sharks Giants You say what kind of logic is that and then precede to say his reasoning and yet u don't understand. Like what?
@Dan Raiders Warriors Sharks Giants that is completely logical, cheer for the more Canadian based team..
@Michael Poteet It is silly like looking for any reason to say he is proud to be Canadian.
Nobody is winning the cup for their country when players on both teams are from the same country and some do not even care about it like that.
@Rondy It is silly logic when the players are not playing for their country. Even the American players playing for American teams are not playing on team USA hockey right now.
Without the players on your team from the other countries being on the team you do not win the cup.
Sure a team could win the cup with 100% of the players from one country but it still would never be the same as country vs country because the other teams would still have players from your country on them.
Florida had a great run but they are done.
Gary Bettman will really puff up his chest when he presents the cup to Vegas.
You’re not in trouble until you lose at home. Florida hasn’t had this happen…yet
Florida was the underdog for all their previous playoffs, and Vegas the top dog, and here in the finals these two positions have been confirmed. Is there a change in the plot coming up? Yes, according to Florida. No, says Vegas. May the better team win . . .
What a perfect hit!
4th goal, Bennett behind his own net, way out of position, trying desperately to make a huge hit while the goal unfolds in front of the net.
Take it all the way Knights !!!!!!
this is the first series ive watched that actually looks like playoff hockey lol
An 8th seed frauds just got curb stomped by a scary vegas team twice. The knights might win their first cup this weekend
Damn talk about a team falling apart.
Made Florida look like a beer league tonight. Let’s do it to um in Florida too GKG
Удаления, нет защиты . Никакой вратарь такую игру не вытащит. Развалилась команда....
Slava ukraini
"Никакой" вратарь это в точку
@Рулон Обоев а ты, видно, неравнодушен к Бобровскому)... зависть? или более глубокие чувства?!)
а Барбашев тебя не воодушевляет?!))
@PlanetCaravan cuckraini*
@velipulla saunan taakse maanpetturi
Knights even look bigger . Wouldn't a sweep be sweet ?
No i got tickets for game 5 i need Florida to win once.
Sweep no but Florida is done.
I mean, if u want a suckish playoff finals sure
@Youngwolf cup sweep hasn’t happened since 1998, probably due for one
@Hypn02 True, but the leafs haven't won since the 67 either.
I like seeing an 8 seed in the Stanley cup finals. It's good for the game
Yes and no, viewership is way down when the big boys aren't around anymore, but people do like an underdog.... even if they were just being carried by a hot goalie and have since shown true colours.
Last 8th seed to win cup was LA? In 2012? Im guessing. St Louis in 2019 had to be around 6th 7th seeded
@Paul Thompsonthe big boys aren’t always top seeded
После сегодняшнего матча, однозначно болею за пантер!
Slava ukraini
@PlanetCaravan Слава БЕЛАРУСИ

I don't care about either of these teams but there are 16 Canadian players on this Vegas team I believe. Soooo Go Vegas!
And 14 on Florida. 30 Canadians in all. Its Canadian elite hockey pedigree.
You Canadians and your silly logic and pride having to be inserted into this.
@Dan Raiders Warriors Sharks Giants Who hurt you?
@Michael Poteet Changing the subject shows a lack of intelligence.
@Dan Raiders Warriors Sharks Giants you evaded the question?
Whoever was on the goal horn for the 7th goal that was savage. Hahaha
If a 5th string goalie beats a $10 million goalie, then someone has a real problem 8:15

If your $10 million goalie gets pulled, that meets the definition of a problem 1:56
