Weak call on Vegas there. 2 minutes for playing defence.

And I agree, the Knights certainly don't look like the unstoppable juggernaut their record would indicate. Oilers have been the better team in this period with Vegas getting beat to a lot of pucks.

Holy crap, he's back quickly. With that much blood, I thought he'd be gone for at least the game.

Guess Vegas has a good cut man.

Haha, talking about betting odds like it has anything to do with actual cup winning probability.

That’s not what you think it means Sportsnet.

I'd like to see an Engelland tussle with either Lucic or Maroon. Or Nurse.

Quinn's fanboy excitement whenever McDavid touches the puck is embarrassing.

Russell is pretty bad. Giveaway, failed clear and then an icing with 17 seconds left.

I sometimes think he gives the puck back just to pad that stat.

I know that it is technically better for us if the oilers win, but I can't help but cheer for them to lose.

It's hard not to cheer for Vegas, even when we want them to lose

Getting the rust off after the 5 day break.

Vegas has been better, a lot better, than the Oilers for 45 games

Didn't realize they had just had their break. That definitely explains it. They had a couple of really solid shifts in the Oilers' zone at the end of the 1st, so it looks like they've woken up.

He recovers like a 16-year old, too.

Gushing about the 8-2 oilers win against the Knights’ 5th string goalie.
