NHL Highlights | Avalanche vs. Golden Knights - April 14, 2024 

It's ALMOST like they're cheating

​@@johanjotun1647haha you'd want your team to do the same thing 😅😂😂

That won't be anything close to the line. 🤦🤦

@@johanjotun1647 WAAAHH THE VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS ARE CHEATING!!! LOL cry harder!

@@johanjotun1647no rule against it not cheating lol

Indeed. There was no way Hertl was going to be denied! He is finally on a competitive team and he wants to prove himself.

@@davidfoshee1914 Hertl worked very hard to prove himself on the sharks also. Even with his big contract and being on a bad team he still worked very hard when he did not have to. On the knights he can finally become a PPG player. Hertl proved he could be the captain of the sharks but obviously some knights fans really do not know much about him and he needs to show them. Hertl is better than his sharks stats.

I missed that trade. Brilliant for the Knights.

Hertl is a faceoff god. It is known.

Hertl looking very good already for 2nd game ,, I can’t wait to see more of him as a power pack player for my VGK,,,,❤ GO KNIGHTS GO

6 vs coyotes in the 3rd

If only you had a #1 goalie.

I feel like the Avs will either explode into a juggernaut during the playoffs. Or implode into a wet sock and get swept. Scary inconsistency

@@ouromov2895 Is it me or many teams have been struggling with inconsistency? Oilers (nothing new), Canucks, Vegas and LA, Toronto, even Tampa could be in there... Weird!

@@williambouffard8796 I think it's gonna be a really weird playoff, even taking into consideration that the playoffs are like a whole new season.

@@ouromov2895 definitley juggernaut they are absolutely stacked this year

@@kalebmcdaniel9147not even close they below 900 save % they don’t haven’t replaced Kadri or compher I like Sean walker but you lost byram!

Swear, there's no one more dangerous on a break down the wing

Honestly, they are just so loaded. I'd sit Hague over Hutton, though, if Pietrangelo returns.

I love Colorado avalanche ! Greetings from Finland

@@filipohman7277 That´s your Problem. ^^

@@Bikolov No, Thats Your Problem!!!🤣

The book on the Avs is: attack the front of the net. They're soft as marshmallows down there. And going high on Georgiev usually works.

@@annemarie1507 not Georgievs fault like many are assuming to be.The defense is horrible.Manson souldnt get all those minutes.Barbashev was all alone just like Karlsson cruising by Manson who just pinched like a guy who doesnt know better.

Annunen has better numbers by far, yet the Avs just keep putting Georgiev out there most of the time.

​@@annemarie1507 ну ставьте Аннунена в плей офф 😂

​@@samphilips2029, и правда, пусть ставят, он же лучше😂

40 has shown weaknesses all season in two areas: 1) 1v1 he freezes & gives the shooter too much time. Needs to be more aggressive & make a big save. 2) mental toughness/reset. When things go bad, he can't stop negativity. There are many easy techniques to help him.stay focused, calm, engaged, & successful. I also think there might be a disconnect with his teammates. Many instances where he: berates his defensemen after a goal & goes crazy in the crease breaking his stick. I'm not sure if the core believes in him & even likes him anymore (pure speculation). Annunen is gonna get playoff games for sure.

He's evading the puck! I get it, it's fast and it hurts. Put Annunen there and forget this joke.

There won’t be any questions about Colorado. They’ll be out in the first round.

@danielnam9026 dunno... not going to bet against playoff Mackinnon. Still , first round , last 2 champions. Gonna be interesting.

@@danielnam9026вылетит в 1 раунде твоя Жопа…!!!😂😂😂

​@danielnam9026 a one line team with a minor league goalie and a coach who looks like he spends more time in the men's wear and hair dresser than on hockey.

@@kidwichita one line??? you are high af. the avs are the most offensivley stacked team in the league and have the best defenseman in the league

Vegas is a better team. But Dallas is better than anyone in the west.

@@socialseahawksfan9325we’ll see about that rofl

@@socialseahawksfan9325only better cause they’re abusing the cap🤷‍♂️

@@collasalbot7900 seems they are guilty of that but that's more the Nhls doing.

@@collasalbot7900Not at all. So cry harder. Get a new bite pillow too.

Куч одну игру пропустил в сезоне? Что-то не припомню.

​​@@valera-oz8vwвсе правильно у Тампы ещё 2 игры, у Колорадо только 1, так что куч должен взять арт Росс хотя бы,если Макдавида не прорвет у них ещё 3 игр

Кучу нужно: 1. Чтобы команда нормально играла. Не так, как Эйссимонт хайпанул и чуть не лишил парня здоровья.. 2. Максимально набирать очки.

Georgiev needs to be better but AVs D is abysmal and team is undisciplined First round exit

The knights won a cup without a #1 goalie so you just got to believe.

@@stephanea5364it’s the lack of confidence in your goalie. Believe me, it’s an actual thing when playing sports. If the defense doesn’t have confidence in the goalie, then they play worse.

@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants Knights needed backup Laurent Brossoit to win their Cup and his numbers are as good as any elite starter, he and Hellebuyck are the best tandem in the league, if Hellsy goes down Bro is a proven playoff backup with a Cup ring to back him up.

@@ll7868 A healthy Brossoit has shown he has talent. The knights had 5 goalies last season and none had a losing record. The rest of the team just carried them to victory. Bro was undefeated in the regular season I believe and the knights were not even interested in him coming back? I would rather have a cheaper Bro over Hill any day.

They look like a team who knows what it's like to have an early exit due to injuries (last season) I think they're just playing smart not to get injured and it'll be full speed and energy for playoffs. It's a lil frustrating, but let's get these losses outta the way and get 16 wins in the playoffs all that matters.

nope remember that this is exactly how they played in 2022 before they won the cup

@@kalebmcdaniel9147 That was different, though. They had already secured the West and they were resting guys so they had nothing to play for. These have been meaningful games. I've never wanted to be more wrong about anything but I just don't have a warm and fuzzy about this matchup.

Thank you a true fan of hockey. A person that actually watches the game and know both teams gave up three in a row. Vegas just got the advantage with a mistake by the avs. So let's get to the real game and not the stupid comments.

The knights have no #1 goalie though so it doesn't make that much difference.

@user-wb7nw2ve1l I wasn't just referring to just today's game. He hasn't been very good recently. So take your dense comment and sarcasim and shove it. 🤡 Thompson would've have been alot better.

@@user-wb7nw2ve1l Hill is not a #1 goalie is like saying water is wet.

100 percent agreed hope he doesn’t start in playoffs

They are playing the Jets.

we are pretty happy right now

Can confirm, Jets fans are happy right now. Swept the season series and finished it with a 7-0 stomping a week before playoffs start gives me a pretty good feeling about that series...

not really the avs are resting up and not caring just as they did in 2022 before they won the cup

they are glass cannon supreme firepower but glass defense

They just traded their big mean defenceman to NJ. Georgiev was signed as a UFA from the previous off season.

Avs look like they’re thinking about the playoffs. Not over extending and trying not to get hurt. Remember, this was a 2nd game of a B2B

lol the avs played exactly like this in 2022 before they won the cup

It's always been that way.

You can even control it behind you while facing forward and enter before the puck. The key word is control tho, you can't be fumbling it. Either way it's not very exploitable because both are hard to do, which is why you never see it.

This is proof that "Vegas Golden Refs" has never been a thing, in fact quite the opposite, and often! This has been the mostly blatant attempt to fix the game by Toronto.

I am a huge Hertl fan but you got to be kidding me. Hertl clearly touches his stick at 3:29 while the goalie is still mostly in the paint. I am not sure if how Hertl touched him had any impact on if the goalie could save it but Hertl should avoid touching any part of a goalie when he is still in the blue part. The knights only argument here is any way Hertl touched the goalie had no impact on him making the save anyway and obviously some will disagree with that. It would have been smarter for Hertl to avoid him though.

The refs were giving other teams like a goal a game with missed calls and bad non calls vs knights for 4 games straight ending like 3 games ago. I'm fair when it comes to penalties, and most of the times the refs just kind suck for both teams. Then you get games where there have been almost no calls and then 1 bad call or call you didn't like is made and people think it's fixed.

@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants you might be a Hertl fan, but you're obviously still sore about the trade. what part about _HERTL NOT IN THE PAINT_ do you not understand? It doesn't matter if his stick made contact with the goof, the goalie came out of the paint, Hertl was not in the paint. The goal should have counted.

@@PeterDixon734 Do you not understand hockey? You can't touch a goalie in the paint and make it so he can't make the save. That Hertl was not in the paint is not going to help your argument. The Avs goalie is still in the paint bro. Once the knights and sharks played in the playoffs and MAF was fully out of the paint and Logan Couture bumped him and it was a penalty on the sharks. I thought that call was awful and Couture was even hit by the stick of Mcnabb before he bumped MAF. The refs only cared about Couture stopping MAF from making the save and did not care at all that both Couture and MAF were not in the blue at all. "you might be a Hertl fan, but you're obviously still sore about the trade. " It is cowardly to change the subject like this and has no basis on this topic. Hertls contract was awful for the sharks the moment they gave it to him. His contract did not help the sharks win or rebuild and the team was already bad when they gave it to him. The only thing I am sore about the trade is the sharks traded 2 extra 3rd round picks and the retained cap and the sharks probably would have been smarter to trade him in the offseason. The sharks got 6.7 mill of cap space from the knights to help the rebuild and do not have to worry about Hertl getting hurt though. Hertl and Couture both need to be traded.

Thought you were talking about the Avs

@@Emma_2Banks I was actually as I was talking about both goalies who played in this game.

Yeah, Avs look bad, right? Oh, you were talking about Vegas' goaltending? You got a real boner for the VGK, huh?

BWAHAHAHA you’re deluded! The alberta oilers are going all the way and are gonna tear the golden refs apart like this Monday

Trust me edmonton wants NONE of vgk

@@liljoe31 After that smoke the golden queers caught last week trust me WE WANT VEGAS

Haha ok. I'll be back here when send mcsoy and leon to golf season again

A good team that no longer cares about preseason?

Hate hate hate hate. You know we are good. But love to hate. But dont worry everyone that speaks evil about this team will biye there words when the playoffs start. I love the way we are playing bcuz if your a fan of Colorado u know we are about to come out of this funk. We know are team can do it. It's just a matter of time when we will break out. Watch out. Losing is good u learn from it and adjust. Just remember playoffs are different. Plus we are 1-1-1 against vegas. So please shut that crap down.

Win it for Hertl the fans and city already have got it.

Eichel and Karlson deserve another cup.

nothing compares to tottenham

It was Liverpool and Arsenal who bottled it today, though.

@@JOY-ux5fy Avs also bottled a 3-0 leaf so.

@@JOY-ux5fy true that, we’ll see how the title race goes

avs actually won the big cup two years ago spurs have not won anything remotely big for over a decade

Нет химии, пусть на физике или биологии играют.

dont know hockey blame the goalies.... the defense are playing like pee-wee dolls stop blaming the guy that allow them to have 40 wins or they would be fighting for a playoff spot without Georgiev.

Don’t run into the goalie then???

@@SteveEagleshe left the crease

@@rsuninvfor a second, then he got back in the crease and got pushed. See the eye doctor

​@Yorha_Unit_2B_ 4giev crossed out of the paint when Hertl was already out, I think you need yours check, along with the refs.

3:17 at 0.25 speed it looks like his right skate is on the redline and that Hertl is already touching his shoulder and if you were not looking at their skates it looks like Hertl is already touching him when he should not be and hertls left skate is partly in the blue. Look at 3:48 to 3:49 his right skate still appears in and Hertl is clearly touching him. Imagine being wrong the whole time and calling the other person an idiot.

It's not about the money, it's about the skill.

19 million get it right!

@@bigrobfff2398 20 million. U get it right

Lol you’re just mad because the Golden Knights are an organization that is run well enough to know how to best manage the salary cap when their players get injured. Besides five million of the 20 million or whatever the number happens to be is because of Robin Lehner, who hasn’t played in years.

Your tears are delicious

They’re in the playoffs. It’s called laying off the peddle and taking it easy before the big games.

Listen all this hate is for a reason. You make fun of this team bcuz you know they can play better. You only talk about good teams like that. Just wait. Its just a matter of time when they will get hot in the playoffs and then you really are gonna be hating. Y'all just hate MacKinnon and Makar. Bcuz you know they have a shot at the cup. Vegas struggled too. So stop being a hypercrite

They got knocked out last playoffs by the Kraken, a weaker team in comparison. This playoffs they’ll most likely be gone in the first round again.

@Yorha_Unit_2B_ except they aren't resting anyone of importance, not even their goalie who has been overplayed all season. And they choked a 3 goal lead, that has nothing to do with "laying off the peddle." This team is just overrated, that goaltending and depth is going to cost them in the playoffs 1000%.

@user-wb7nw2ve1l why would I hate Nate and Cale...? They're absolutely amazing talents, that's a ridiculous claim. The comment was partially sarcastic but Colorado is overrated. Their forward depth and goalie situation is garbage, Georgiev has struggled all season (maybe because he's tired from being overplayed) and they never addressed it. It's 100% going to cost them.

if they start to play defense unlike pee-wees Georgiev will do his job....

How is this related to the game?

Currently, yes. But prime Ovi destroys prime Panarin.

Toke the joke

LOL? It would be total anarchy on the ice if you would get away with anything. "Here, take a cross check to the face"

The penalty was in 3rd period in regulation and bled over to OT. Fyi...

Your team's FO should do a better job and MAYBE they might do just as well as the Knights 🤡
