Golden Knights score.
3-2 Golden Knights winning early 2nd period in a high scoring game.
3-3 with 7 minutes left in 2nd. This is going to be a great SC final

That's an insane number of goals for a hockey game. It's like they were using a Chicago typewriter for the shots.
Happy with the result (obvs).
Got a bit too nerve-wracking for me tho. Near that entire second period, Caps had Vegas on the run.
I'm confident the Knights can have this, but it's more than skates that need sharpening.
COYGK.

Lets get weird!!!!
I'll be honest, I don't see Kessel as a first line winger, due to his lack of work ethics...but if you were to ask me which player adds more to the game, JvR or Phil Kessel, I'd go Phil Kessel every single time. I think JvR will command about $6.5 to $7 million on the open market. Someone will pay him that much (just cuz...), but I think Kessel is worth the money he's making.
I do not see him as a star. If someone were to take about $1.8 million of his cap hit for him to play for the Oilers, I could not say no.
Someone on Twitter was saying how much of an overpay this is for Kane and how someone like Chris Kreider has about the same type of numbers, but CK will never command that much money on the open market. Despite his talent, I've never liked Evander Kane. I think he's more trouble than he is worth. Did he have a great playoffs with the Sharks? Absolutely. Is he statistically that much better than Chris Kreider? No. Is he getting paid more than Chris Kreider? Definitely. Does he add as much value as that of Kreider? No way in Hell.
Given what the Sharks just did, which is not only overpay Kane, but also basically taking themselves out of the John Tavares market. The Sharks are an excellent organization and I can see Kane scoring something close to 40 goals with that team. However, this is too much money for a potential albatross.

I was kind of expecting this kind of a game between the Capitals and Golden Knights. VGK consistently battling back and scoring goals as a quick response to any goals scored on them is no longer a surprise. It's almost expected. I do think the Capitals have a little more fight in them, but I am thinking VGK wins the Cup.
Having said that: go Caps GO!

I would agree with that assessment of the Kane deal.

The Caps tie it up 1-1. That save by Holtby with 2 minutes left was incredible. That has to be the save of the year. That's why he's an elite goalie.

Does the ice at TMobile usually get that rough and choppy late in the periods? This has been my first chance seeing Vegas at home so I was wondering.
