Wonder how many coaches will start trying to imitate the Vegas system next year.

They were outshot, but they were not outplayed. Well, maybe Sharks PP looked better in general than Vegas PP but that's about it.

Yes the momentum just kept growing and it turned into a strong belief. Just crazy how much is mental in high end performance.

Exactly Kypreos. Controlling the middle of the ice. Look at all those highlights, pucks carried in through the middle.

That would help greatly. However, the Flames and many other teams just sit on a one or two goal lead. This Vegas Knights team has been pressing every chance they get and not just dumping the puck away. This is a total team effort. They've been doing this on most nights in the regular season.

I like to see the Flames do it. Takes total team effort. Knights are such a fast team as well. Awesome along the boards which creates neutral zone turnovers.

Yeah this is not lucky shooting percentage. This is a style that generates high quality chances. At a high rate.

Who did the ducks protect by letting the knights take theodore? Theodore is a great young defenseman. That is looking like a bad decision ducks....
