"It was a perfect opportunity in our minds to use our other starter. That's been a strength of ours all year. We wanted Robin to get in a game and stay sharp, in case we needed him. So there was a lot of rationale to it."

"The game tonight wasn't about Robin Lehner," DeBoer said. "We didn't play well enough in front of him."

#### Vegas. Love seeing them get destroyed. Then they goon it up of course. Ryan ‘no talent’ Reaves at the front of it. Marchesault is a little b**** too.

Isn’t the test simply who scares you more McDavid or MacKinnon?

Not even close. I never want to face MacKinnon in the playoffs ever again.

I live 500 miles away from the place, and do NOT get any Las Vegas stations via either broadcast or satellite. I live closer to Denver than Las Vegas, and the Blackout policy never caused me any grief when the 'Hawks played the Avalanche.

If the NHL really wanted to punish Vegas they shouldn’t suspend idiot Reaves. Let him stay in the lineup and keep another player that can actually play hockey out of the lineup. All he’s good for is running guys and punching faces. What does he play, 6 min a game?

You mean that 12th seed that BEAT the Oil?

That just shows that even with McD, that team is flawed, and proves the point: E=NG.

Not to be that guy, but McDavid has literally scored no-look 5-hole against the Flames twice...

MacKinnon in the playoffs is elite on another level though, no question.

Well. I’m not sure how to interpret this.

Vegas has in all 4 years of its existence been in the playoffs. This year they are easily in the final 8 of 32

I think that any problem is a nice problem to have

You are defining the best player as the best offensive player.

Until they take out the defensive zone, the best player needs to also play defence.

With the game on the line, you want the player with the best chance to score before the other team.

Those were against the Flames, if the avs got to play against the Flames it would have been scary. Doing it against one of the best teams in the league during the playoffs is different than doing it against the Flames. Mcavi couldn't even do that against the jets this year, he could hardly do anything in the playoffs this year. I can't wait to see them go head to head next year, you just know Mackinnon will destroy the oil by himself.

No, he was beat clean from 15’ out by the best player in the world, who was left uncontested. Pretty much as simple as that.

Looking at those highlights makes me imagine that on that goal MacKinnon was thinking, "Pppphhhhhtttt. I can do that."
