    Well, we’re playing a good team, so maybe we’ll do good. We’re usually at our worst against bad teams.

  2. NoahtheRed

    Good start, Jack. Let’s keep that momentum going

  3. BeardedPaladin

    There had to have been a “come to Jesus” moment last night or this morning. Team is actually playing their defensive structure

  4. UnhealthyCheesecake

    FIQ: Broadcast is reliving the best VGK memories of 2023, what’s yours?

  5. Top_Faithlessness903

    We need a karlson goal to secure our victory. We have lost the last four games and he’s been scoreless the last four games….

    ![gif](giphy|ukQq6zZgXhOSECtTUY|downsized)

    Come on dancing queen!!!

  6. What a fucking effort from Doro to get Amadio that chance!

  7. Wafflemonster2

    Amadio’s actually become the real deal, hot damn

  8. NoahtheRed

    Come on, let’s get it out and back into scoring territory. 2 goal leads are not a good place for us

  9. Steve_Hunts96

    Oh Thompson… THAT’S MORE LIKE IT!! Great fucking save on Kopitar

  10. RoombaArmy

    WE PLAYED AGAINST ARIZONA IN THE FIRST GAME AND WE BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THEM

    AND HE HAD NO POINTS

    NO POINTS

    BUT IT IS OKAY BECAUSE THAT YEAR ONE HE WAS PRETTY FUCKING GREAT!!!

  11. benseifert666

    Whoever asked for a Wild Bill goal earlier there you go! Sick setup by Cotter

  12. joey_1324

    #WILD BILL!!!

    I flipped this game on to see we are actually winning and Wild Bill bury one.

    Damn it’s a great fucking night with the Browns clinching the playoffs and the after party with VGK playing well for the first time in a while.

  13. EnricoMatassaEsq

    Great fucking puck handling and pass from Cotter to set up Wild Bill

  14. Where has this team been the last 4 games? I missed you VGK never leave us again.

  15. FloralDemon

    That replay clearly shows PLD messing with Marchy first.

  16. benseifert666

    Dubois, Refs both wasting Marchy’s time right now

  17. Vegas_Golden_Refs

    Let’s finish this game strong we really need to snap out of this slump.

  18. Steve_Hunts96

    #༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ VGK TAKE MY 3RD PERIOD ENERGY ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

  19. Thompson looks so much better today. It’s like night and day. And he’s getting goal support with the defense.

  20. cookbacondrunknaked

    Wow. That was the fastest goal tender interference I’ve ever seen.

  21. SuperCake61

    You know i was just about to say why the fuck Thompson was doing a spin-o-rama in the net. lol

  22. TheGiantRascal

    I hate ESPN+ so much. It’s so annoying having to mute every time they go to commercial.

  23. joey_1324

    Holy fuck that was an intense ending, but we held on
