• VGK faces must-win scenario in Game 4
    Apr 25 2025
    The Golden Knights are trailing the Minnesota Wild in the opening round 2-games-to-1 after another convincing win by Minnesota. They beat VGK 5-2 for a second game in taking the series lead. Again the top line of the Minnesota Wild took over a game and VGK's top line couldn't count. Kirill Kaprizov scored two power play goals. The Wild had 4 points on 17 shots from its top line. The good news is if VGK can steal a win Saturday, they would be tied up in the series heading back to Las Vegas for game 5. They Golden Knights have seen constant pressure from Minnesota. On Thursday night, the pressure led to two more goals on turnovers. VGK also might have goaltending issues. Adin Hill was pulled after two periods after stopping 17 shots on 21 attempts. He has not been sharp in the series so far. We talk about Saturday's game being a must-win for VGK. And, we have our WTF feature.

  • Bret Howden scores twice in series opener to beat Minnesota 4-2
    Apr 21 2025
    Bruce Cassidy said we can expect much of the same style the rest of the series between VGK and Minnesota. The Golden Knights and Wild played at a fast-pace and it was a physical game. VGK prevailed 4-2 before a T-Mobile crowd. Howden's first goal was on a missed assignment by the Wild's Zach Begosian. Howden had a clear path to the net where he beat Filip Gustaffson. It gave VGK a 3-1 lead at the time. His second goal was at the buzzer on an empty netter with :01 to go. We talk about the impact of Tomas Hertl who scored a goal after winning a face-off. Hertl also assisted on the Pavel Dorofeyev power play goal. We also discuss areas VGK has to improve on to be successful in the series. The Golden Knights depth already has shown up.

  • VGK-Wild series preview
    Apr 18 2025
    Will the Golden Knights continue their dominance against the Minnesota Wild? We will find out starting Sunday when the best-of-seven opening round begins in Las Vegas. The Golden Knights have won the last five meetings between the clubs, including a three-game sweep this season. Both teams appear to be relatively healthy as the series begins. TNT reported Noah Hanifin was listed as day-to-day with a lower body injury, but we haven't heard anything from Bruce Cassidy. Kirill Kaprizov and Joel Erickson Ek, two key parts of the top line recently returned to action. This could be a battle of the top lines for each team. We make our predictions for each series. And, it WTF time with all your comments.
