Post-Game Talk: Game 1: #VegasStrong | Golden Knights 2 at Stars 1 | Final | Knights Win!

[rynryn]

Yes!!! WTG.

And why isn't Tuch on the roster?

 

[Murf]

Congrats!

 

[BattleBorn]

Yes!!! WTG.

And why isn't Tuch on the roster?

Waiver exempt. That's the kiss of AHL for us right now. Anyone interested in trading a guy for prospects?

 

[bukwas]

I'm crashing the party, pass the cigars and champagne.

Great start Golden Knights.

 

[hangman005]

Wow what a game.... great to see Vegas come away with the win, both me and my mom were celebrating when Neal scored his 2nd.

Go Knights Go.

 

[Aurinko]

-Nervous passes and bit problems with reading each others plays.

I knew Neal was a great player, but man, that was pure 5/5 performance. And 5/5 effort from the whole team.

 

[CandyCanes]

Welcome to the NHL Knights Fans!

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Congrats on your first win. And congrats to Fleury on an outstanding debut.

 

[FinRanger]

Why didn't Vadim play?

 

[BattleBorn]

Why didn't Vadim play?

Stuck in the AHL since we've got too many heads in the roster.

 

[Summer Rose]

My 3 stars of the night:

1) Marc-Andre Fleury
2) James Neal
3) Ben Bishop

 

[NeverForget06]

Congrats on your first win my friends. I'll be cheering for you guys, unless you're playing my Oilers of course.

 

[2 Minute Minor]

Congratulations Vegas! Fun game to watch.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Congrats guys, welcome to the NHL!

 

[The Nuge]

Congrats guys. That 2nd goal by Neal was straight up filthy

 

[MessierII]

Congrats great game. Glad I caught the second half of it.

 

[Bart9349]

Time to savor the moment. Moments like these might be few and far between this season.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Fleury’s post game lockeroom interview was perfect. Classy and respectful. I will always love him. Hockey players are the best.

 

[VanIslander]

Time to savor the moment. Moments like these might be few and far between this season.

Nah. I expect the Knights to play 0.500 hockey with a winning record at home.
I stick by my summer prediction of 82 points this season!

Just 80 more to go!

 

[VegasKnightlife]

Fleury was fantastic, and I still can't believe the Preds didn't protect Neal. What a game, especially his 2nd goal. Defense played very well.

 

[Kreator]

A big congrats!!

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Congrats Knights Fans!!!! Welcome to NHL Hockey

 

[VanIslander]

...I still can't believe the Preds didn't protect Neal.

Who would you have left unprotected?

• Roman Josi
• P.K. Subban
• Mattias Ekholm
• Ryan Ellis
• Ryan Johansen
• Filip Forsberg
• Viktor Arvidsson
• Calle Jarnkrok
• Pekka Rinne

I would not have protected Jarnkrok. But I think Nashville did the responsible thing. The 25 year old has produced 30+ points each of the last two seasons from the 3rd line, has the potential to produce more with more ice time, and maybe most importantly is locked up for 6 years at a very cap-friendly $2 million per whereas Neal is a UFA at the end of this season and they couldn't possibly offer Neal a longterm deal and a raise on his $5 million salary when Ryan Ellis will need a huge raise by the end of next season.

 

[LadyStanley]

The roster size is back to 22 with the Pickard trade, can't one of the guys they were gonna send down like Ship be in the line-up now?

Neal activated from IR

Congrats to the Vegas Golden Knights and their fans on their first franchise win!
