Great game for Vegas gave it a good effort but when your are missing 3 key players like Echel , Theodore , and Karlson your going to come up short against top teams . Need a full deck to win here ! When are they back ?
Geez that's hockey if you don't take a shot nothing will go in regardless if it bounces off other players. Duh!!! 🤪
Not a VGK fan but this is a great show, love that Tony and Chris are realistic and not just fans.
That was just bad coaching. Vegas couldn't be bothered to get in a passing or skating lane for the last 20 minutes of play. You will lose every game if you just let the other team skate around uncontested.
