Certainly nothing to write home about
He was never under .500 and didn't have great rosters. His last season was ownership gong show.

I recall them being well coached and using great tactics.

To be fair, Vegas has matched their total first-round output in this single game.

I admit I enjoyed watching them this year and thought they were full value for their season but couldn’t convince myself they would have success like this in the playoffs- I guess they truly are playing with house money-

Annoyed. Yes. Defensive? About what?


But whatever. Back to the game.

Pens had the 2nd most penalties called against them in the 1st round. As for "puck luck" you don't puck luck your way to two straight Cups.

My recollection of Gallant's Panthers from the few games that I watched was that they were a tire-fire in their own zone.

Just calling out the BS

Be a bandwagon fan all you want...don't pretend you always thought this guy was a great coach and he has reinvented the game. Coach is fine, he obviously has a good roster too

About thinking the comments were about you. It's a tell.

A bunch of cast offs including the coach. Hard work to prove themselves. All buying together and playing for a common goal. That's what I believe is happening here.

What are you blathering about? Don't pretend? I watch games. I like how his teams play.

What a stupid post.

Wow, when Fluery is in the zone he has some incredible vison and puck awareness.

He gives Vegas so much confidence that they are able to play and control the game at their will.

Thanks, got the numbers wrong. Seemed too low.

Curious as to the local TV ratings for the Vegas playoff games.

No exact numbers, that I could find, just this:

Television ratings for the Golden Knights’ first-round playoff games on AT&T Sportsnet-Rocky Mountain have increased by more than 200% even from the regular season.
