Even though he let one in from there, he’s stopped about 5 others from there and that was his best.

Vegas should be stressed. But we all know how this plays out, right?

Otter has never won in OT.

Vegas’s defense is better than Seattle’s, but Dallas looking decent when they are trailing gives me a bit of hope.
Vegas is a much bigger team as well. Their D is huge. (giggle). It makes them more physical just from their size even if they’re not running around throwing hits.
I got a ranch in downtown Dallas/I buy diamonds by the ton/Chase cuties in my Cadillac/Drill oil wells just for fun/But when it comes to boots, I need a deal/That will fit me right, toe to heel/So I get my boots at Western Warehouse.

When we are losing, all of a sudden we look great.

Almost makes me think we should maybe use some of that when tied.

They showed Benn and Pietrangelo discussing and mentioned the full respect these two have between each other. And then I remembered Pietrangelo's famous "You're so washed up" when he was still with the Blues.

And also much more balanced. They have so many options with many guys that can play center or winger, PK and PP. Roy, Carrier, Stephenson, Smith, Karlsson are all Selke swiss-knife type of players than can adapt to any situation.

Almost surprised that ESPN isn't moving this game to ESPN2 so they can get to the WNBA game they've been hyping constantly.

Griner!

They called her “one of the best” female basketball players which is high praise indeed.

Ok so what to feel about this game as it goes to OT...I expect a loss because of recent experience and Vegas has mostly outplayed Dallas anyways.

Whew, nice to not really feel any stress about this one.

Just let Subban do the intermission by himself.

He really is very good, way better at it than Chelios and Messier.

Seriously Messier and Chelios seem like they shared a bottle of Xanax.

Supposedly, Chelios has a big personality away from the cameras but I've never seen it.

Messier looked really pissed when Hintz scored that first goal against Seattle in game 7 and they went to intermission, but I think he just has resting scary face.
