The system Vegas uses is infinitely better than Calgary's. Flames look brutal so far.

All Vegas so far. Their puck pursuit and forecheck is relentless.

Ive counted four mid to high slot chances for Vegas so far. And good ones too.

Man, I wish the Flames were the Knights. Knights flying while Flames look like goofs with the puck as usual.

Gotta leave a coach on the side of the road sometimes to get him going?

While you guys are watching the Flames and Vegas play, I get to watch Ottawa and the Blackhawks play.. wtf Sportsnet West. #### Ottawa, who gives a crap about them. Why are we seeing this instead of the Flames. Holy -_($(#)#/_!_;'!$

Classic Flames rope a dope. Give it another period and we’ll have the lead.

CGY not playing in opponents end at all. I'm really noticing the difference in how CGY attacks compared to opponents.

CGY does not use the middle of the ice. Straight line hockey.

3 man forecheck, stretch passes and keeping the puck between the dots. They rarely dump and chase when attacking.

Simplest way I can sum it up from what I can see - Vegas's style is "make a play, any play, quickly." Our style is "take your time, don't make a mistake." So every Knight is going 100 miles an hour all the time, while we're standing still a lot.

Don't worry, you're not missing much yet. Flames are unprepared to play once again.
