That lineup looks pretty good if Perron is good to go. I'd exchange Carrier for Nosek maybe, but I'd be comfortable either way. I don' see that as the Kings starting lineup though, unless they've been coy with their injury reports.

Intensity level:
Dialed up to 11.

Yeah I'm not sure what I'm doing exactly. I haven't shaved in like two months (well...maintenance shaves don't count)

I've been rocking the playoff beard for a while now

I’ve lost my voice at many points this season. I, and I think most people who attend most games, have taken to being a little less participatory in the crowd experience through the season. Season tickets take a toll on your voice, especially during long homestands.

It’s all out the window tonight, if the voice is gone for tomorrow after the game tonight, it’s just gone. Hope it’s back for Friday and I hope they don’t come back this round because they swept the Kongs.

Let’s go!

Let’s f***ing go.

I'm completely with you. I've gotten to the point where I have a coughing fit every time I even think of cheering. All that is out the window tonight and I will have two pockets full of lozenges.

I feel like a horrible fan because the only games I could watch this season were national TV games. But the good news is all of these playoff games are on national TV, so I can watch them all!!

I really wanted to win a round at least so it wouldn't feel like the magical season fizzled out with a quick playoff exit.

Now that the Kings are the opponent that feeling has quadrupled.

Just don't lose to the Kings. Let's go.

I’m interested to see if the Knights have another gear or if they even need one. Every game I saw this year, they looked like they were playing playoff caliber hockey while the other team was in regular season mode.

They've looked a little crappy lately, we're hoping there's a switch, that they can find it, and flip it.

I've got a feeling having everyone in the lineup will do it.

I think so too. This team is scary when they forecheck like they can. It just comes in waves, doesn’t matter who is on the ice.
