Reaves has played 27 games in a Knights jersey. Zero fights. He is itchy...

I am not into predictions, but I think Vegas will acquit themselves very well. The goalie match-up may tell the tale.

No need. Vegas doesn't get pushed around the way Pittsburgh does.

If Kuznetsov does his breakaway thing, this will be the best goalie he faces at stoning him.

If Reaves puts a major indentation into Wilson's face, I can see a non-Pens Metro team giving him a nice contract in the off-season.

Even if Wilson or anyone else like Orpik tries garbage and run away From Reaves you still have someone like Neal who will do something bad to Carlson or Kuznetzov as payback. Vegas handled Winnipeg with ease and they far and away were supposed to be the toughest team in the NHL.

Jackets pretend to be tough. Pens and Lightning never made that part of their game. Vegas or any team from the West is a whole different animal.

Looking on ticketmaster- resale tickets for game 1 Monday is about 1500$/1600$ per ticket!
That is about the same $$$ I see for game 1 in DC. I don't know if there is an extra charge for the Vegas
pre game show! :P 8-)

If the caps win a game in Vegas, regular season ticket holders can probably get their entire next season paid for selling their tickets to the growing bandwagon of fans that don’t know what a hockey puck is.

I have friends that pay for their entire season tickets selling the playoff tickets when the Caps match up against the Pens or another top team in the 1st and 2nd rounds..... they get to watch the entire regular season and then sell the playoffs figuring they will lose in a game 7 anyway along the line....:)

When the playoffs started, probably 14 of 16 teams had a shot at making the cup finals. In the NBA, not so much. Cleveland is in and golden state will win today. BORING.

It's an excellent strategy and has definitely paid off for them.

For Karlsson, the dream is never-ending. What a story.

This series has all the makings of going 7 and also being wildly entertaining.

Real overly-aggressive there.

The ice in Vegas is crummy now and expected to be even worse once it hits 100 in a day or so. They might want to lighten up on all the pre-game extravaganza pyro and smoke. Puck is bouncing all over the place and they've had to patch spots 3 times that went past the break already.

Of course Wilson scores after Fleury kicks the puck into the net.

This is a nightmare.

On the one hand, Curry makes a 3 to take the lead.

On the other hand, Wilson just got punched in the face.

Gotta take the good with the bad.

I wonder if there was a prop bet in Vegas on how long it would take Wilson for his first running cheap shot that sent someone to the locker room....pretty safe payout for game 1 and he made it all the way to the 3rd period :roll: . He is a punk plain & simple - he doesn't really want to stand up to someone face to face but if they are looking the other way he will line them up and go all out.

The Knights need to keep their foot on the pedal - Caps lost game 1 in 2 of the first three rounds and still came back to win. I will not be comfortable until Vegas gets to 4 wins!!

Wilson deserves another suspension. But I thought Reaves was going to prevent this kind of stuff from happening? Marchessault says BS!
