Last night the VGK were missing $18.3 million worth of crucial players to their lineup and it showed in their 2-0 loss to the Minnesota Wild.
Mark Stone and Alex Pietrangelo who were injured in Saturdayâs game in San Jose did not play, even though Pete DeBoer claimed that Stoneâs not returning to the game in San Jose was based on the score of the game and their upcoming schedule. I did write in my last post that this might be a fabrication, as this organization is very tight-lipped when it comes to injuries.
Minnesota has not been kind to the VGK in the past; coming into last nightâs game, they had 1 victory in 5 games at the Xcel Energy Center. In those 4 losses, they managed just 6 goals. Last night they were shut out by Kappo Kahkonen, who extended his winning streak to 7 games compliments of the non-existing offensive of the VGK. The VGK power play was 0-3, with zero shots on goal in the
Knights on Ice â Tuch It From:
Alex Tuch is on fire and Marc-Andre Fleury is smoking hot in the net. These two were instrumental in VGKâs 4-0 shutout of the San Jose Sharks last night at the SAP Center in San Jose. Vegas has 3 wins this season in 3 games at the SAP Center. The Sharks have just 2 home wins in 8 games played on their home ice. Overall, the VGKâs record is 7-0-2 at the SAP Center in the regular season, with a record vs. San Jose of 11-1-3. The once-heated rivalry is starting to lose some steam as the VGK are clearly the better team and the Sharks offer no bite at all when it comes to these games.
Max Pacioretty’s goal, his 2nd of the game at the 1:25 in overtime, saved the Golden Knights from what would have been a disastrous loss to the San Jose Sharks. It was Pacioretty 3rd winning OT goal this season as Vegas won the opening game of this back-to-back 2-game series
One year ago this week, my family got together for a surprisingly different night out; we went to a Bingo Hall in Albany. I m pretty sure my sister suggested it as a bit of joke, but it was one of those things that we all unanimously agreed would be a fun thing to do.
It was me, my girlfriend Samantha, my sister Sherri, brother-in-law-Frank and my mom, AKA Mama Codes. Pops didn t want to come. There was probably a Syracuse basketball game on TV to keep him busy on a Friday night.
Hard to believe it s been a whole year and that Bingo was the last normal thing we all did as a family.
