Frankly, I don’t think their zone exits are very clean at all - they tend to muscle the puck out of the zone as best they can and then try to regain the puck.
EDIT: Carolina gave the Panthers the same issues as Vegas, but they don’t have the same kind of finish, so Bob stopped them.

Bolded for truth.
I also don't think Carolina is as fast as Vegas. Carolina would be similar to us. Some fast guys but play a fast style.
