Canucks have their win. And they might fluke into another one. But this isn’t a tightly contested series with a goalie stealing the show. This is an onslaught with a few Hail Marys being answered. Vegas will move on.

Canucks are getting their asses handed to them as usual...goalie is stealing a game. I have said a billion times that he is the best goalie in the NHL right now...why would I be hiding?

This series will go exactly how I called it...Vegas in 5 or 6 with Markstrom stealing a game or two


Vancouver is not getting Markstrom on a cheap deal, teams will be lining up...its going to cost six or seven M with term

Was hoping the flames would have got somebody good in the LA kings fire sale. Tanner Pearson is nothing special, was hoping for toffoli.

One of Alternate captains. Vegas has never, ever, named a captain.

For a top-tier team, that's pretty surprising. They should have named a captain by this time but they still haven't named anyone.

Any possible candidates?

I think they are biding time until a home-grown star emerges. It's not at all a bad strategy.

Sounds like engelland is a healthy scratch?

https://www.rotoworld.com/hockey/nhl...eryk-engelland

Vegas media before the COVID break suggesting whitecloud took his spot and therefore Engelland is expendable.

Fighting two Canucks at once in that one flames game, he will always have a spot in my heart.

Nice win. Let's get the Knights out of the playoffs, please and thank you. Keep winning, Vancouver.

Vegas is big and angry and not very nice. Not sure how any team left other than Boston can match up against these guys that way.

they are not a mean team tho. STL was heavier and meaner, but they are the fastest team left in the playoffs.

Notwithstanding the lopsided score, that was anything but the reverse of game 1. Knights still dominated large stretches. If they keep playing like that they'll win in 5 or 6.

I wouldn't complain. Four years isn't a huge commitment. His floor is that of being a pretty good #1, and his ceiling is what we have been seeing in the playoffs.

I suspect some team will offer him more term though.
