That looked like a high hit to me by Kane on Sbisa.

Pulling for the Knights to win this series but they could easily be down 2-0 right now after the 1st period.

Hoping Vegas can close out the Sharks tonight. The hockey gods aren't helping San Jose based on the first.

Safe to say this series is over. I can't see the Sharks getting 3 past Fleury.

Yeah, this still doesn't make any sense. The Sharks are thoroughly outplaying the Knights in this game, and they can't buy one. The Knights continue to have a horseshoe firmly ensconced up their butts. Loose pucks seem to find their sticks. Close plays go wide or off the post or just out of reach of Sharks players. What can you do?

Sharks could have easily had 3 or 4 goals in the first. And I don't mean in the typical hockey cliché way meaning they had lots of chances. They actually should have scored multiple times.

You really get the palpable sense watching this that stuff is just coming to the Knights (stuff generally being the puck), whereas nothing is easy for San Jose and can only be accomplished through sheer force of will. Every deflection and tip and flip or indirect pass the Knights make seems to work perfectly, like they're seeing the game in slow motion or something. It must be incredibly frustrating for San Jose.

Not just San Jose. I am more than over the Knights and their magical first season.

Screw this team.

The Knights aren’t giving the Sharks much to work with this period. Vegas has been putting on the pressure so far in the third.

Two more posts, because why not at this point.

The hockey gods seem to be with LVK. Can't believe they are about to punch their ticket!

Poor Sharks just can't buy a goal. And the freakin' expansion team punches their ticket to the West final.

I don't think I can remember a team with worse puck luck than San Jose has had tonight. Especially in an elimination game. Wow.

Knights are opportunistic. They have been in control since the first goal, and they are full money here. Came in to a tough building and took care of business. Didn't need to be fancy.
This isn't luck.

Pretty much rooting for whoever comes out of the east now (barring Pitt). Screw the Knights
