Like I said in the GDT a couple of days ago. I'm just coming around to the idea that they don't stink.

I think #9 is pretty high, but I guess you've got to respect the record. The next two games will tell us a lot.

If a franchise wants to build a fan base then making the playoffs in Year 1 is a dang good way of doing it!

I don't think they're in that top percent of teams without Fleury, but then again I was sure their blueline would lead to a ton of goals against so wtf do I know. Real happy with the team, either way, as I'm enjoying every game and that's what counts.

High pick/lottery chance is probably more valuable to this team long term than a playoff elimination. So I hope they deal Neal for a high pick

I'm a pocket fan of the knights

they're a new team so no one can be on the bandwagon or everyone is
Except for the Las Vegas natives
plus they drafted Cody glass who's a Winnipeg boy which is my main excuse for hopping on the wagon

I don't know how Vegas is doing it with a number four goalie and a cast of expansion draftees, but you couldn't have started the first month of an expansion team any better than this. The team plays a hard, fast, organized, structured game brand of hockey and making a great impression so far.

They've been doing ok except they haven't been able to hold 3rd period leads lately. Thursday's game was the first where they never had a lead.
