Imagine being hot shot Ben Johnson, finally getting a head coaching gig, and having to move to Gary ******* Indiana. Chef's kiss.

Mitch Marner with 2G 1A in 4:06. Suddenly Knights lead 3-0 with under 5 minutes left in the 2nd.

Marner with the natural hat trick! 4-0.

1) its not going to happen.  its just more ineptitude on behalf of the bears, specifically kevin warren.  aka the ultimate grifter empty suit.  he's bungled this to an amazing degree.

2) if it DID happen (which lolololololbears), its hammond, not Gary.  and its literally 5 feet from chicago.  this is the equivalent of building a stadium in pontiac, mi and saying "see?  pontiac can support a team so can quebec."

Are Chicagoans really going to drive to a suburb of Gary, IN like Hammond, with absolutely nothing to do or see before or after a football game? It feels like moving to a Gary suburb like Hammond will be a disaster for attendance. No reason now that we can't get a team in Quebec if the Gary metro area can support one.

I’m surprised by the Dallas Stars’ proposed Plano arena. You need NHL arenas in the city core, as teams like Ottawa and Arizona have learned.

And now Carolina has scored 3 goals in 39 seconds! Incredible. 4-3 Vegas but 12 minutes still to go.

[lordstanley]

Don’t be scared, Miss, everything will be fine.

Sean McDonough needs to stop with the VGK references. It’s not a thing, is it?

[lordstanley]

Powerplay Carolina! 2:55 to go. 

[lordstanley]

Tie game!

[lordstanley]

Need to at least review this. It was a busy crease.

That goal has to stand, the Carolina player was shoved into the net.  Tie game!

Yeah and that’s why Torts didn’t challenge and risk a penalty. But all goals in final 3 minutes should be reviewed, imo

Once you get into the playoffs, I wouldn't mind if all goals were automatically reviewed.

Knights win in 2 OT! Funny looking goal. Own goal?

edit: bounces off endboards, past a defenseman’s stick, off Bussi’s skate and in
