WDSF Game 1: Minnesota Wild @ Vegas Golden Knights | 12:00PM | NBC, SN, TVAS

[Jugitsu]

I honestly prefer the playoff version of the rules

I somewhat agree. Borderline charges, scrums before or after whistle etc. shouldn't get called lightly. But a hook, hold or a high stick should always be called no matter the circumstances. Whenever those fall through the cracks, it kills the skill in the game slightly.

Andrew Brunette game winner

Youd think Fleury was the goalie with 40+ saves with the way NBC is deep throating him

To be fair Fleury has been outstanding today.

I feel like Minny has had the better of the really dangerous chances. That save where he contorted backwards was unreal.

He was lights out in the third. You can't deny that.

I think they need to be fairly blatant in that they stop a scoring chances, but a simple tap on someone's side that barely impedes their speed should be let go.

I say Nick Roy wins it for Vegas here.

if you're out there hacking people in the face with your stick then refs need to step in, otherwise let the boys have some fun

Missing MaxPac sucks but the reality is that should not make your team look like it has barely any high-end talent.

 

[Jayan]

Hartman will get the winner

It's like the opposite of the Oilers/Leafs

 

[mw2noobbuster]

Fleury is going to score the winner.

 

[TheBeard]

Hartman will get the winner

He's literally going to take a shot so hard it goes through Fleury's glove.

 

[SP1966]

Is it just me or have the Wild run into a goalie doing this to them in round 1 now every year for the last 5-6 years they made the playoffs?

Feels like it, kind of like the Twins and Yankees, nothing good ever comes of those playoff matchups for Minnesota.

Watching the game or the shot totals?

Minny obviously needs this way more than Vegas, that said if they get it I still think Vegas wins in 5 or 6...it will just make things more interesting

He's out of position a lot and makes routine saves look "amazing" Those go in a lot with him. This game he's saving them so it makes it seem like he's saving the game.

PP Minnesota

 

[Wolfpuck]

Wild to the power play

Oh no, early penalty.
