Stanley Cup Finals; Vegas Golden Knights vs. Carolina Hurricanes
https://www.nhl.com/ ^

The Brett Howden shoe is in full swing here. Seconds after Carolina kills a penalty and gets the crowd going, Howden comes in and scores a gorgeous goal, not only beating all-world defenseman Jaccob Slavin to the net, but using his body to shield off his check and then beating Freddy Andersen with a slick move.

That's now 13 goals for Howden - yes, you read that right. The guy is on fire.

Vegas now has two goals on six shots.

Carolina needs a spark here. They look a step behind Vegas.

but are they that much stronger than their record this year

So many teams make the playoffs that the regular season record doesn't always reflect the actual strength of the team.

Carolina finally scored. Not much time if they want to keep this going, but enough if they get serious about it.

Vegas is a legitimate good hockey club. They shut down the Western conference number one seed Avalanche 4-0. Canes score again! Tie Game!!!!

I thought at the start of the series, that it’s going seven games.

Losing McNabb to a puck in the face early is starting to catchup to Vegas

Wearing red, black, and white tonight. Bulldog colors with a Hurricane nickname. Very hard for me to do, but hubby is pulling for them, so I am also. ;)

That would be wonderful! I love series that are so even. It means the right two teams made it in to the finals.

I’m still ticked off that we lost to frickin’ Troy in the regionals.

Missed that one but watched the Gators play the Canes the other night. I think last week? Thursday or Friday? Anyway, we loved watching the broadcast. It just gave me a warm feeling in my heart to know that families with kids could go watch the Gators and run around and have fun. Very much the old days vibe.
