The Game 4 Mammoth-Knights game was a wild affair...highly entertaining, and felt like a heart attack comin' on at the end. One of those games where it's kinda a shame someone has to lose...but glad the Knights pulled it out. Now, go home and get this done. Mammoth will get better, Vegas is hanging on, and their goaltending won't hold up, almost assuredly. Meantime, Flyers better finish before it's too late.
Did not expect Vegas to win Game 1. Heck, didn't expect them to even get to the Conference Finals. Amazing play by Carter Hart stopping a ton of high-danger chances. Avs looked scary as hell. Shortened bench hurt them a bit without Makar. But kudos to Golden Knights for getting 1 win on the road and giving themselves a chance. Still think Avs and Canes are two best teams. We'll see what happens. Should be a tremendous series. Vegas' window closes significantly after this year's playoffs. Colorado will be right there again next year regardless. Next up Canes and a very young Canadiens (youngest in Conf Finals in 33 years!) Wow! Hockey RULES!

Holy crap! Thought there was almost no way Colorado would lose Game 2 at home. Unbelievable performance by Carter Hart for the Golden Knights! Colorado has to make history to win this series now. Don't blow it, Vegas!
Holy Moly! COL jumps out to a 3-0 lead in first...totally dominates.
Nuthin' going Vegas' way, even had a goal waved off.
Then, 2nd period.
Wow! This series is an absolute dogfight! No better sport right now than Men's Hockey. Hands down, not even close. Best Playoffs of any sport right now.
C'mon Per 3!

Nate MacKinnon hurt late in 2nd period. Not out on bench in 3rd. Trainer came out to talk to Bednar. Hate to see one of the game's best players hurt.
Now a bit of fisticuffs. Two Avs players went after Mark Stone behind the net. They call ofsetting penalties. Stone didn't slash anyone, yet they call it on him. Announcers agree it's a B.S. call. This game is a flippin' WAR!
Edit: MacKinnon back out now. What did they do/give him? Now he goes back to the bench. We'll see how he feels. Makar has only taken wrist shots, so he's still not 100%.
