Vegas Golden Knights spark a potential season turnaround with a gritty overtime comeback against the Detroit Red Wings. Can Bruce Cassidy’s squad harness this momentum for a deep playoff push?
Tony Dasco and Chris Gawlik break down the Golden Knights’ rally from a 3-1 deficit, spotlighting Ivan Barbashev’s key goal, Tomas Hertl’s overtime heroics, and Aiden Hill’s rollercoaster performance. The duo explores locker room dynamics, accountability resets, and Cassidy’s pointed “take care of your own crap” message after locker room finger-pointing. Goaltending remains in focus, as the hosts debate a possible Adin Hill-Jordan Binnington swap with the St. Louis Blues, the implications of Binnington’s no-trade clause, and what it could mean for VGK’s postseason outlook.
With the NHL trade deadline looming, could the Pacific Division shift further? Get insights on Edmonton’s blue-line moves, Calgary’s stockpile of draft picks, and Vegas’ newest addition, Cole Smith. The trade winds are howling—will VGK make another splash?

Not sure why this team does not drive to the net every play to score ? Why do they wait till the 3rd period every game ? Where is the man in front of the other teams Goalie stationed to screen or get a deflection for a goal ? This is how you win games to much effort wasted skating in circles when we are in the other teams zone with endless passes .

They don’t lead with physical presence. Need a few of these guys like a rabbit in a running race. Their skill sets at offense which are already a lot..would be complemented.
Nemec from New Jersey talented young D NJ said to be willing to let go..
Fools gold… TRADE TRADE TRADE
I don't thing Binnington's the move. I feel Hill just needs time to find his groove and to know the team supports him.
That was the year my wife and I moved here as well
I wasn't there but you could really hear it at my house
Nice game for the PK 4/4. Cole Smith definitely finishes his checks and that 4th line had jump.
Binner 7 years ago was a gamer not now. He was suddenly. 900 Olympics final 3 games, sub .900 4 nations except the final game. Binner can have a high save % on high danger shots. The problem is he creates those opportunities by being out of position, poor puck control ( rebounds and where the puck goes), etc. Then scrambles to make the big save and it looks great when he does but its also not great tending… plus it was mathews taking all those shots in 4 nations. Matthews every goalie has stopped every shot from mathews in any big game. No game 7 goals no 4 nations goals no Olympics goals in the 3 games that weren't against pee wee bantom teams. No goals in the last 9 games where the leafs needed him right now. 2 goals in the last 3 series the leafs where eliminated total. Thats a bit of a rant but you get my point. Plus the final goal at the Olympics binner flubbed through his legs. Not excactly what your hoping for when you out chanced your opponents by a 2-1 ratio.
Cole Smith and Scissons did well on the PK. C Smith was hitting or at least bumping into every red jersey that came close to him. He looked like the Kolesar of old.
What's sad is we had an olympic goaltender on the roster and we decided Hill was the better choice to keep than Logan.
Not mentioning the guy who actually drove the offence last night and had a 3 point game in the title is a disservice to him.
Dasco, calm down bro, Hnidy corrects himself 98% of the time when he makes an initial incorrect call! Early WTF!!!
When Cassidy put Marner, Hertl and Dorofeyev back on the same line late in the game it seemed to spark Marner and Hertl. The 3rd goal Hill let in was not good but Hill locked it down after that so I give him credit for giving the Knights a chance to win.
I’d take bobrovski over Binnington
Nick roy to colorado. I'm going to fkin puke.
I need to be a guest on this show you tell you the real tea
Lauzon for Whitecloud
We arnt gonna talk about how Vegas got robbed by Washington…. Gave up more to get nic dowd than we did to get Marner. Make tht make sense
