9 out of their top 10 scorers all had career seasons. MAF also posted the best regular season numbers of his 14 year career.

I really don't know how to explain it or if it's sustainable but it sure is frustrating. Especially as a fan of a team that shares their division and has only really had one or two good seasons in almost 30 years.

I'm ridiculously bitter right now.

Neal with a stick to the head of quick I think there.... LA defeceman didn't like it much. De Brusk calls it a 'fly by' and praises Neal for his discipline. Open your eyes De Brusk, I know years of playing with the greasers has distorted your perception of hockey but...

I was thinking along these lines until I remember the Kings have Dion. So GO KNIGHTS!

Then if they made the next series I couldn't cheer for the Sharks or Ducks either. So GO KNIGHTS

A Vegas Nashville WCF would be pretty fun to watch

This is a hell of a series so far. Both of these teams are pushing hard.

I hope Vegas kills this off and it goes another 2 hours. Great game.

Continuous overtime is the best thing in hockey.

That’s why it’s stupid to have black and white penalties for that. You see penalties for delay of game, but not for anything “subjective”.

Vegas is so much fun too watch, I was a casual fan of theirs all season, but now they are definitely my second favorite team. I'm fully on the bandwagon!

Both of these teams deserve to lose for having black as their primary colour.

Looks like the ice is failing quickly now. Pucks bouncing oddly and players bailing all over the place.

I wouldn't be surprised if a weird bounce or fall leads to the winner.

Yup, great game so far. I have missed the marathon playoff game with all of these shootouts during the reg season. Even better, not on a work night.
