Good game boys.  Great game Gus!!

KK97, the ENG King.

The Wild really battled. Impressive to come out of an intense playoff game with zero penalties. Hope they can keep playing their game back at home.

Go Wild!!!

Good game boys and we got a series. Come on home. Gus is definitely the unsung hero. Kept it zeros after poor start and took everything Vegas could throw at him for almost two periods.

...and well worth staying up for.

That was about the length of the rink too

Solid game — Hell of a first period Wild!

[Skomonkey]

Solid effort. Impressed with them not retaliating in those scrums. Clearly the more they hit, the more they controlled the game. In the second period and beyond they got away from that and had to hold on and chase.

For sure. Cleared my calendar for the first couple hours just in case. Now amped up so getting to sleep will be a challenge.

VGK won the period….. it wasn’t a fair face off… shut up ESPN announcers 

I watch the game on FD. Rather watch the Wild broadcast. National media orgasms over VGK. Many have them picked as their SC champions.

Kap, Ek, and Boldy are definitely the best L1 option.  The rest are having a tough time controlling changes and mainly either got lucky or did enough to keep Vegas at bay.  Not sure that's always going to be the case.  I'm just happy it is split going into St. Paul.  Unless they plan to go 11-7 and put Rossi on ice (who is struggling), Buium should sit.  They aren't going to get enough power play time to take advantage of his raw offensive approach.  The Hertl goal wasn't "his fault," but the Knights can pick on him with impunity defensively until one of them does.

Also, regardless of how the Rossi thing pans out, I'm ok with giving the money he'd make to Gus instead.

Rossi got totally rag dolled. Bandy playoffs in Europe might be a challenge for him. Folingo looks the best I've seen him in along time. Kap knocking the rust off. Boldy a machine in the making. Gus f'in Bus top notch bud.

This may be the best hockey I have ever seen out of Hartman.  He is playing fast, physical, to the net hockey and he isn't letting his emotions get in the way.  Ek had a much better 2nd game.  That top line can play physical with good sticks.

Buium made a few mistakes again.. but I still think he had a solid game for only his 2nd NHL game.  Bogo looks like he is trusting him a bit more.  The kid got 12 minutes on the ice and most of the time he fit right in.
