I am so glad that I've been following the Knights this year. Last night's game vs Lightning, solid 10/10 in excitement and entertainment. I thought the Flames 14-15 season was entertaining, Knights blow that away this year for sure. Makes up for watching the boredom that the Flames are delivering this year.

[D'z Nutz]

Yeah the Knights have been really fun to watch this season whenever I can catch a game. Such an underdog team. I'm glad Malcolm Subban was able to find his game with Vegas. He was looking like a real dud there for a while.

Fun fact about the Knights: Their best-selling jersey is not Marc-Andre Fleury, nor is it James Neal. It's Clayton Stoner, who has never played a single game for the Knights.

Surprised its not Vegas strong. There were a huge amount of those when I was there at the game. But Stoner makes perfect sense haha.

I'm sitting at the keg bar eating dinner alone like a fucking loser. But they have the Vegas game on... Team is actually really entertaining!

Told ya so.

Did you ever consider buying a place down in Vegas? I was really close to pulling the trigger on a place just if they strip during the financial crisis.

Just Hawaii and Chicago. Vegas is all about the hotels, definitely living larger than I could afford full time.

[rage2]

Cue the knights comeback.

Edit - that was quick haha. I swear these guys play better from behind.

Edit2 - confirmed.

[rage2]

Solid. Also puts the Flames into 2nd place in Pacific. Great night of hockey for me.

[rage2]

Flames lose 5-2. Vegas wins 5-2.

[max_boost]

Hahahahaha I was thinking exactly that when I saw the scores LOL

[D'z Nutz]

Jets look really good this year. Now they look better with Stastny

[Quizzes]

Who knew Winnipeg had it in them to bring in a veteran. Well done!

Looks like Winnipeg, Nashville, Pittsburgh and Boston are all in it this year. The asking prices have been pretty crazy.

[D'z Nutz]

Fuck did Boston overpay for Nash, especially when he has no intentions of staying there after the season is over.

[D'z Nutz]

Thank. Fucking. God. I was pretty confident we didn't have the pieces to acquire him despite the rumours, but I'm glad the nonsense is over.

[BerserkerCatSplat]

Man am I ever pumped to have Stastny on board. Laine - Stastny - Ehlers will be one hell of a third line for the Jets.

I still wanted him here, but yea, didn't think we have enough to offer. Any word on what Sharks gave up for Kane?

Conditional 2019 1st rounder (if Kane re-signs with SJ), otherwise it becomes a 2019 2nd rounder + 4th rounder and AHLer O'Reagan. Not a bad price, but still paying for a rental. Even still, Flames can't even afford that package because they're so poor.

I more assumed the Flames wanted nothing to do with Kane because of his attitude issues and not needing someone like that to be added in the locker room
