I took my 6 year old daughter to the game last night. First hockey game. She had a blast, and had no problem screaming for the Kings when they scored lol.
Like most of you know, we’re long time Vegas natives, so I do follow and cheer for the Knights whenever they’re not playing the Kings. And man they looked bad last night. Critical divisional game and they couldn’t care less. That team has some major problems right now.
LOTS of Kings fans there.
Was gonna post the same. The Kings? Best game they've played all year after like the first 5 or so minutes. Really carried over the game vs. the Bruins and played at a high level. So awesome to see.
On the flip side, sure, part of it was the Kings playing well, but by and large that's the worst I've ever seen VGK. Mostly disengaged, rattled, no emotion really out of the human helicopter and kept that big dumb emotional baby stone in check too.
All that dog shit puck luck from early in the season came back as a horseshoe last night too, Vegas could have been up 3-0 before the Kings found their game. Credit to Copley for being unflappable, I think this season either Quick or Peterson gets rattled at those posts.
Also all aboard the Drew Doughty rollercoaster, never know on any given night this year if he's going to be the best all around dman in the league, a shutdown savant, or a sloppy lazy turnover machine with soft D.
Last night he was an absolute monster, him and Mikey were completely dismantling VGK down low.
