Canadiens @ Golden Knights Game 1 Top Six Minutes: The Casino wins big

Montreal in the Stanley Cup semifinal, who would have thought?

First Period

• Good start; all lines seems to be working.
• Romanov draws a penalty for a high stick, ferocious forecheck on that penalty kill from Vegas.
• The Tsar with a big hit on Pietrangelo, who defenately didn’t expect that.
• More big chances for Montreal, they need to get one into the net soon.
• Come on refs, you got to call some things.
• ... and the bad guys takes the lead.
• Gallagher with a danerous shot, as Montreal tries to get their game started again.
• Weber starts, and joins, the counter attack.
• The set face-off plays from Vegas are really good.
• Danault to the box.

Second Period

• Another power play for the Knights, as Chiarot lifts the puck over the glass.
• ... and Vegas scores seconds after Montreal is back at full strength. 2-0 bad guys.
• CAREY PRICE!
• Big Ed to the box, for something.
• Byron with a counter attack, and a call. Four on four hockey.
• Kulak to the box, they can’t take minor penalties like this.
• Montreal power play, Cole Caufield... Caufiled again, GOAL!!!!
• What happened? 3-1 Knights. Damn Swedes.
• Another Price save.
• Repeat.

Third Period

• After a strong first period, the Canadiens has been found on the back heel. The start of the third looks to be more of the same.
• Producer thought it was a goal and set all the graphics on, but the post saved Montreal...
• ... but another defencive breakdown gives Vegas the 4-1 goal.
• Can they stop icing the puck?
• Weber injured?
• Empty net with four plus minutes to go.
• Caufield and Suzuki, get used to it for the next couple of years.
