What bugs me is all of the cap and IR shenanigans are forgotten and basically, the home ice is with grease pigs now, negating third place. I’m hoping that the NHL has a real good look at this, but it’s unlikely. Bringing players back for one game and letting them rest before and after.

I heard an interview with bettman on one of the intermissions on the Vegas feed, and it doesn’t sound like there is any way that the playoff format will change.

Was at game a few notes

Vegas fans are casuals
Vegas fans don’t know anything about hockey
Vegas fans did not know who Gary Bettman was
Low energy building felt like a regular season game
Vegas had issues matching Oilers speed, Vegas was gassed

I've been at 3 Vegas games including a PO game against Edmonton two years ago. None of your comments about their fans is true.

I expect Vegas to win tonight; greasy pigs got their split and it’s not Vegas “must win”…although moving towards more difficult if Vegas doesn’t win tonight. Win tonight though and get at least a split in greaserville and Vegas looks better.

Vegas to make amends: Vegas to win 5-2.

Please Vegas, just a 4 game win streak. Not asking for much.

Draisaitl the dirty pig already stuck his leg out and tripped a knight away from the play. No call. But had a knight done it to that b**** you know it’d be a call.

What an awful powerplay. Does Vegas know the game has started?
