While I’m inclined to agree, that this series isn’t over. I’d also say that I don’t think we’ve seen Vegas’ final form. They don’t even seem like they’re REALLY clicking yet. and THAT is the scary thing.
This has been my line too. Admittedly a VGK fan, but I have been saying that the Stone/Hertl/Stephenson line hasn't even fully hit yet. Both the Stone and Hertl goals were PP goals. Can't wait to see how they do 5v5 once they start clicking.
You saw what happened once Dallas had a couple of injuries. The Knights are so much deeper than every one. I’m confused that more analysts don’t see that the only thing keeping Vegas down during the regular season was a TON of injuries. Knights are sitting a line now better than a lot of teams are playing in their top 3.
Right! The VGK had something like 500 man games lost to injuries in the regular season. Still managed to make the playoffs, once they start really clicking watch out.
I agree with you about Peter DeBoer saying "we're playing with the defending Champ". Feels like they are conceding and giving the round 1 to VGK. There is no fighting spirit, but we never know. He knows his players' capability and maybe he feels that there is really no more chance to beat VGK on the next succeeding games. 😀
