Don’t know why anyone would expect Vegas to regress at this point. This team reminds me of a more talented 04 Flames - less a hockey club and more of a cult.
They all live in the same neighborhood and all have a chip on their shoulder from being cast off from their prior team. They have an excellent coach, and are motivated by their fans and “Vegas Strong”.
They aren’t flukeing out wins or relying on red hot goaltending... they are just out working everyone who comes to town.
It is going to be a real test when we play them.
