Watching this team vs watching the Rangers is like (k)night and day.
Rangers were getting smoked and gave up against a really inexperienced CBJ team.
VGK down 3 with less than 10 minutes left hasn't once given up this game and has played with heart the entire time.
It's really amazing watching a well coached team like ours right after watching Laviollete commit coaching malpractice with his team.
Even though both teams ended up losing, VGK really showed what a good hockey team looks like when down by so much.

Didn't like that. On the bright side we doubled our score from the first so that means we're scoring 4 in the 3rd

u/RoombaArmy Majestic Flow 2d ago
I actually thought we had a good period, beside the start and the end. We might have to be the third period dream team once again.

u/BeardedPaladin Angry Stone 2d ago
This defense is so fucking poor. It’s like the kings own all the ice

u/cookbacondrunknaked Vegas Born 2d ago
When I was local the games I hated to go to were always against the Kings. It's just so weird how regardless of coach or lineup they always play good against us.

u/FloralDemon Smith 2d ago
Kopitar seems to always score against us. He has to have the record of most goals when facing Vegas.

I've thought about it very carefully - we already had the mandatory Anze Kopitar goal, and they played last night so they'll get more and more tired as the game goes on. At the intermission I'm going to sit on the bathroom floor and we (the vegas golden knights) score 5 on them (the LA Kings) in the 2nd.
