Sheng Peng: Karlsson's Brilliance, Marchessault's Grit Wins It; VGK Sweeps LA Breaking down Brayden McNabb's game-winner + Pierre-Edouard Bellemare's line pushes back on Anze Kopitar + just how bad were the Knights in the 1st?

Wow! Congrats Vegas. Very impressive.

This team is straight up legit. I can totally see them in the finals. I am rooting for you Vegas. I love what you have done this year....

Wait... so that 1st period was legit THAT dominated by LA? Making sure I am reading that imbedded stat line correctly.

I guess the Flower as pick # 1 for Knights was pretty solid... 2 shutouts in a 4 game sweep ....

congrats.... the road ends here though.... sharks in 6 in the second round....

Where is Muzzin going on that goal....just gave up the middle of the ice and hung Quick out to dry.

Muzzin has to be the most overrated dman in the league.

defense didn't beat the kings.... lack of scoring did..... i fill neither team is very good.... right now....Sharks will take Vegas easy in 5-6 games

Congrats to Vegas and their fans, can't wait for game one of round 2 at Vegas what can they do to top that pregame!

Congrats Vegas! Hopefully SJ can close out against the Ducks tonight, get some rest, and give you guys more of a challenge in the 2nd round! With so little history it's hard to even know how any series will go against Vegas.

Whoop!

Sharks go down next,

meh...who knows, I'm sure someone can post a graph at how good or bad he is, depending what you want to see.

I don't know about that....Vegas are well coached and play a good style IMO

That's what teams have said all year about Vegas. Including before the playoffs that they couldn't handle playoff hockey.

Someone is bitter.

With the exception of one period last night the Knights made it look easy. Clean breakouts over and over and possession through the neutral zone then gain entry clean and start the cycle.

Just an excellent job coaching by Gallant and co.

Say what now?? The Knights are the real deal and can play with ANY team in the NHL. Please keep in mind that this is an expansion team that has played together for less then 1 full year. what they are doing is AMAZING. McPhee did a masterful job of getting the right talent and Gallant put them in a position to win with the style of hockey they are playing. I for one love it and hope they continue to make history

Agreed, but I didn't say he was bad, I said he was overrated. He was on the WCoH team over Subban for god's sake. He does a lot of things right offensively, which people praise him for, but he frequently gets lost in his own zone and that seems to largely go unnoticed.

You always agree with me when you’re right.

McPhee just took what was available.
Gallant has done an exceptional job.

(frank)ing right boys!

While all the games were close the team really showed a different gear the Kings couldn't match.

Fluery's stats are video game like on easy mode. I foresee a much tougher matchup against the Sharks. They won 3 out of 4 this year but all the games were close not just on the scoreboard but in actual play as well. The Sharks can actually skate with Vegas. I think it's gonna be a great series.

The first line is starting to gel again. Can't wait to be there for game 1 of the 2nd round
