Must protect Lagace from any sustained pressure; otherwise, a long, long night.

 

[Plural]

Whew, that was close. Morrissey with a wide open net. Luckily he fumbled.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Max, well done!

 

[Plural]

Who was that just leveling Big Buff?

 

[Northern Knights]

Perron scores!

 

[Plural]

That's it baby! What a goal! Big Buff losing his battle and what a beautifully constructed counter attack. Nice job.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Perron, sweet drop pass from Derek, then...crap.

 

[Northern Knights]

Bah, redirected. 2-1.

 

[Bart9349]

Need one of the NHL goalies back.

 

[Plural]

Knights having some troubles calming the puck down. They seem bit sloppy and unorganized. Hate to say it, but they're bit lucky to be leading 2-1. Not terrible, but not the best Knights I've seen.

Well, now just kill the penalty and get off to 2nd with good morale.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Gotta kill this penalty, can't give up a tying goal this near to end of first. C'mon VGK!

 

[Northern Knights]

Stop losing faceoffs.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Another penalty...bad timing.

 

[Northern Knights]

Delay of game now. Not good.

 

[Plural]

Oh for f***s sake! That's a bad penalty to take. It was a great kill though. Let's hope for another one.

 

[Northern Knights]

Hey, if you win a faceoff it's easier to clear the puck... who would've thought?

Glad to get out of that period with the lead.

 

[Plural]

Laine tuning his shot closer and closer. Can't give him many more looks.

 

[Nevada Jones]

I'll take 2-1 after one. Gotta finish off the PK, then get some of that second period magic back.

 

[Bart9349]

Not smart. Don't keep throwing the dice by giving them power plays.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

I thought the Jets took over last 8 minutes or so. Knights definitely got off to a good start, but there’s always the 3rd to worry about.

 

[hangman005]

VGK started off well, good pressure and what not, but then they let Jets come back in.

That delay of game penalty was unlucky but we need to win some damn face offs if we want a chance at this one. Hopefully we play a big 2nd and 3rd period and show the Jets what this team is made of.

 

[Bart9349]

Gary Lawless on Winnipeg TV. Coming from Winnipeg, he knows the team. Gives his props to the Winnepeg GM. He's very optimistic about the Jets. Personally, I don't see it. (I expect both the Preds and Blackhawks to improve as the year goes on.)

 

[Nevada Jones]

15-5 WPG on faceoffs...didn't realize it was that bad.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Max, what a save!

 

[Bart9349]

Lagace played huge on that PK.
