Very impressed with the comeback! Go Knights Go!!!

Missed the game tonight, but a coworker was updating me from his phone. Did Neal's 2nd goal come on the PP?

I'm thinking were gonna see a lot of games this year with 48 SOG against.

Sold my tickets for opening night thinking I had to work, & now I have the night off. I'm going to find a pair here or on StubHub. :thumbu:

We shouldn't have won that game, but I'll take it.

Fleury... Just wow.

Neal... Clutch. GM be like: "Yes my pretty, keep scoring, I have big plans for you..."

I bet $5,000 that VEGAS would WIN through Sportsbook (at HfBoards in the top left corner of the page) and won $11,000!

Now, uh, how does Sportsbook work? Is it real money? Is it just a simulation until you sign up and stake your own money through your credit card. Whaaa? :huh:

Congratulations on the win for your team. Remember this feeling on those nights when things don't quite work out for you (or you get hit with a large (heh) helping of Gary Flawless.

Hope you guys get your home opener too.

I don't wanna hear anyone talk smack about Fleury after tonight, Pickard or Subban would have let in a couple.

Neal is going to be a fan favorite during his stay here and he showed up last night.

Yeah on that note Dallas does look good. Bishop being back in his old form--which looks to be the case--is huge for them. Long way to go, but Dallas fans should be hyped, they have a solid coach and guy between the pipes who will be holding it down.

Great win for you all. Great effort to keep at it. Personally happy for MAF!! He is a great guy. Hope he keeps it up for you Knights fans. I think you may become my second favorite team, at least until we get a team here in Seattle.

It really was a big win. Dallas is going to be a very strong team this year and beating them in such a thriller was beautiful.

That being said, we did win it with hearth. There were so many shaky passes and bad plays. I expect the second game of the season against Arizona to look completely different. I expect we play better together but with a bit less effort.

haha, good win for y'all.


Sabres fan checking in, and doing so in peace. A couple of things...

1. Congrats on your first win.
2. Whoever is running the Knights Twitter feed needs a raise and/or a promotion in the WORST way. They know their hockey, and they have no fear of trolling other teams(so far, Pittsburgh....San Jose...and now Dallas have felt it). There are more than a few Sabres fans who have posted messages of thanks. I quoted that tweet and said "Thanks for having our back, Vegas. #VegasStrong ".

Awesome game. Some quick thoughts:

1- Offense could really have used Shipachyov. But I digress.

2- Garisson still has game! Was noticeable in a good way all night. Equally as good at his job as Neal and MAF were at theirs. Outlet passes, holding the line, blocking shots. He did it all, and was one of the best players on the ice for Vegas.

3- Girard Gallant is a fantastic coach.

4- Perron and Smith are legit top 6 wingers, and will be real contributors this season.
