Thought the league started cracking down on that like 10 years ago.

Depends on who is taking the shot and who is getting hit.

There he was! Handing the puck over for a short-handed breakaway!

So he is playing tonight.

Millen is very good.
To me it's neat that I had his hockey card as a kid and he's been a steady part of my hockey experience ever since.

Vegas is very much a team that just expects all the breaks and starts really trying to get away with as much as they can, as soon as they feel like they're not getting enough breaks.

Vegas got a better chance on our Powerplay than we did.

There isn’t one this season. Once Lindy gets traded, perhaps we’ll start to see actual changes to PP1’s lineup.

Need skill.

Other teams no matter how ####ty still get timely power play goals. Us? Nope. Never.

LOL, dude was double teamed with no help on a power play.

Did you hear Millen say he’d been having a good game right before that or are your ears going too?

I used to find him dreadful - he’s improved quite a bit over the years IMO

That's about as blue chip as you can get.

We might be the first team in history that is actually better with the same or less amount of players as our opposition, than when we have more.
