The Knights play the game "right". They skate, they win races to the puck, they win puck battles, they just win. I hope the Leaf's coaching staff are watching and can show some of that to the players. Babcock talked about will. I think he has a great example to show what he means about will. Vegas is all will. They have skill, but the will is just crazy!
its playoff hockey, not soccer.. bergeron played with a punctured lung cause by his broken rib during his last final. puck in the face is a piece a cake for those guys
I have always loved your show and a die hard Caps fan. I am so happy to see your doing this series! I have always felt odd being a caps fan loving your leafs coverage and now I get to see you cover the CAPS!!!!
I always pick a favourite too, it's almost like a natural thing. Being so used to watching and cheering and loving one team, it's like hockey isn't hockey without cheering, even for no reason at all, for one of the two teams playing.
Man, while watching this game, I was actually thinking "I wish they had recap videos like LFR for these playoff games" and I'm very happy this happened.
Sam Ortmann and how many crosschecks by defenceman to forwards that knock them down lead to them missing a rebound opportunity or a tap in? It happens all the time.
It's still a penalty. If the coaches can challenge and make the officials stop the game for 10 minutes to watch the replay on a Nintendo DS to see if a skate was a millimetre past the line a minute before the goal was scored than they should be able to challenge an uncalled penalty directly leading to a goal but w/e I do concede it happens. Doesn't mean it shouldn't get called.
Definitely agree on all points, but this was shortly after Marchessault slashed and crosschecked Oshie while the latter was in a vulnerable position. Refs should have called that and they should have called the penalty on Wilson immediatly, but instead they let the game get out of hand.
Marshy and Perrom best friends. His reaction was due to that. When they moved here, they were house mates and like glue until their families got to Vegas. Very tight brothers. Was not surprised to see Dave wig out.
Vegas Golden Knights Coverage As a Habs fan, I'd rather tattoo a Leafs logo on my forehead before I pretend to be a Knights fan. No disrespect. I'm still not convinced Vegas really cares for Hockey... I think all of this is just a honeymoon effect of simply having a team (in any sport) with their city name attached to it. When NFL waltz into Vegas, you'll all go back to not really caring for hockey.
@TheBest HockeyMind That's a statement that you didn't say at the beginning of the season I bet because you like most everyone else on the planet expected the Knights to be mediocre to average at best.
Honestly, I think it's really cool that the opening of the game had all that drama. It is super fun and cheesy and it brings hockey closer to competing with other large sports.
In the nhl rule book you have .60 to make the hit Wilson saw .68 go on nhl network to see the rest they discussed it in my opinion it should have been a 5 minute major no suspension
Dave Clarkson says wtf? ... automatic 10 gamer , it’s in the rule book ! They missed that one big time . Clarkson got 10 and didn’t even get in an altercation while Perron skated into Ovi and then crosschecked him after leaving the bench when lay was whistled down already ! Very curious to see how NHL reacts to this because it was obvious . I suspect Vegas will continue to have everything and anything go exactly there way , as usual and Perron will get a $59 fine ...
Steve, because there was no alcertation on the hit Tom Wilson laid on Jonathan Marchessault when David Perron cross-checked Alex Ovechkin, Perron will likely not be suspended for what he did. But, I think he will be fined.
"That hit was so late it must be pregnant" Almost tempted to unsubscribe just so I can resubscribe for that comment... bravo sir... bravo It's funny though. Going in to this series I didn't have a team I wanted to win. As a Pens fan I have reasons for wanting and for not wanting both sides to win. But as Tom Wilson continues to play dirty I find myself leaning more and more on Vegas. Whatever happens though this is already shaping up to be one hell of a final.
You missed a some MAJOR points in this game. Reaves tying goal was a clear penalty with a cross check to the numbers in the back... that's a double minor that went uncalled and changed the outcome. Eller's missed shot was a clear as day slash from McNabb... Watch the replays, neither is deniable.
On Washington’s 3rd goal, it’s kinda hard to blame fluery for that one. I mean yeah he may have been a bit too aggressive but that’s their game plan. Let fluery be as aggressive as possible and let the defense worry about the passing plays
Steve - thank you for being the one hockey super fan I'm aware of that isn't a grouch about the over-the-top Vegas pregame shows. Yes they're ridiculous - but as you said - sports are supposed to be FUN & it's okay to not take hockey so effing seriously 100% of the time like it's this sacred humorless institution devoid of any levity. I mean for fuck's sake we're talking about a sport where the term for the penalty countdown sounds like a freaking video game power up & two players can drop gloves and beat the shit out of each other and be back in the game after 5 minutes...
Probably 6 I think they will out grind the caps I dare say 5 but that would be disrespectful. The Knights always seem to have a bad game then they take over and attack a teams weakness and tighten up defensively
Yes! We need more videos! Thanks Steve

Dwayne Matheson it was all good just a week ago- Jay Z #AllCAPS
How could you not mention Ovie getting hit by a puck in the face and not even reacting that much
its playoff hockey, not soccer.. bergeron played with a punctured lung cause by his broken rib during his last final. puck in the face is a piece a cake for those guys
sam93931 yeah but it’s a funny gif
Totally forgot. It was a bonkers game.
steve the type of guy to spend 200 dollars on a jersey that he wont wear
BrickRoasts business expense;)
I've waited since 2015 for a cup check on this channel. 2014 was still my favourite.
The second that Burakovsky took that penalty, I was like "Well, that's 1-0" 😂
So did Steve just not notice that they used his voice in the pregame thingy?
I have always loved your show and a die hard Caps fan. I am so happy to see your doing this series! I have always felt odd being a caps fan loving your leafs coverage and now I get to see you cover the CAPS!!!!
How am I just now discovering these?! Love it!
Hey Steve! Been a fan for a couple years now! Really happy you're doing this new series for the cup final, missed LFR styled videos.
Finally more vids from Steve! My life has been so empty! But what a Game! One of my favorite games on this year playoff run!
Well done. When the Knights are out and the Leafs get to the final, I'll definitely watch.
"That hit was so late it must be pregnant."
I got a condom ad before this video. Algorithms are fun.
I always pick a favourite too, it's almost like a natural thing. Being so used to watching and cheering and loving one team, it's like hockey isn't hockey without cheering, even for no reason at all, for one of the two teams playing.
T'was quite the game for Bruins fans
Love the background setup! LFR videos with a Leaf Jersey and game opponent in the background would be super cool
Can you cover the marlies game. I’m a stars fan and I want to know the opinion on the enemy
Phantoms have been great this Season. Marlies destroyed and humiliated the Phantoms. That's who the Stars are facing. :)
Man, while watching this game, I was actually thinking "I wish they had recap videos like LFR for these playoff games" and I'm very happy this happened.
Tomas Nosek, not Stefan
I think Steve is confusing Nosek with Stefan Noesen
tapsu98 probably
He said the same thing before in the podcast too
Surprised he didn't say anything about the Reaves goal only being possible because he crosschecks the guy covering him to the ice
Guys crosschecking when battling out in front of the net? That NEVER happens...
Jordan Coulter it directly lead to a goal.
Sam Ortmann and how many crosschecks by defenceman to forwards that knock them down lead to them missing a rebound opportunity or a tap in? It happens all the time.
It's still a penalty. If the coaches can challenge and make the officials stop the game for 10 minutes to watch the replay on a Nintendo DS to see if a skate was a millimetre past the line a minute before the goal was scored than they should be able to challenge an uncalled penalty directly leading to a goal but w/e I do concede it happens. Doesn't mean it shouldn't get called.
I'm sorry my guy, but that exact play happens quite often. Shouldn't be allowed, but they rarely call cross checking by the net front.
I legit opened this video and when I saw the knights jersey behind you, I said out loud “oh yeah that’s a thing”
Very Nice. I am one of those fans that stops watching when my team (Kings) is out, but this is a very entertaining Finals.
9:08 made me go "wow did he actually say what I thought he said?!?!"
THE KNIGHT!
If you actually time the hit, it was 0.7 seconds after Mash passed. Not that late.
QuintupleA is it late? Yes? Could he of stopped it? Most likely. Could he of at least slowed down and softened the hit? 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣%
Definitely agree on all points, but this was shortly after Marchessault slashed and crosschecked Oshie while the latter was in a vulnerable position. Refs should have called that and they should have called the penalty on Wilson immediatly, but instead they let the game get out of hand.
I like this new series you started, Steve.
Yep, more of this. I was hoping you'd do end of series wrap ups for all of the playoffs, but this will do.
Marshy and Perrom best friends. His reaction was due to that. When they moved here, they were house mates and like glue until their families got to Vegas. Very tight brothers. Was not surprised to see Dave wig out.
Caps were my favorite at the start of the game, but I'm 50/50 now and enjoying the play of Vegas
This is the greatest RUclips thing of all week.
If you're braindead, sure.
Put your golden knights jersey on and pretend to be a knights fan... you’ll have more fun!!!! Love you Steve!
EDM Mcdavids you're an idiot, that guy has been a VGK fan way before the playoffs began

Enjoy this season.
You may nevet get another one like this

Wow lots of salt 😂
@TheBest HockeyMind
That's a statement that you didn't say at the beginning of the season I bet because you like most everyone else on the planet expected the Knights to be mediocre to average at best.
thank you
From now on in your video's, whenever you say "Vegas" is should be followed by "baby". Thanks Steve for another great one.
"Future household name, Tom Wilson." Ayup.
Honestly, I think it's really cool that the opening of the game had all that drama. It is super fun and cheesy and it brings hockey closer to competing with other large sports.
No matters who wins, it'll be great
Vegas will be better in game 2. They hadn't played a game of hockey in 9 and a half days.
McSorely clubbing Brashear was cleaner than the Wilson hit
Let's go Vegas!
Hey Steve? What are your thoughts on the cross check on Carlson that was missed, and lead to the reeves goal?
Great vid Steve. Make sure to react to the Marlies in the Calder Cup finals if you can!
2 words Steve.. Anger Management. :)
thanks for the video steve. Not a toronto fan, but I like your opinions on all things NHL
5:12 Steve I do the same thing. I can’t watch hockey without picking a team to cheer for.
No mention of you being in the Knights' opening in the Arena? I thought it was pretty funny, right along side Doughty and Hellebuyck.
I loved the opening and the game
As a caps fan I love this steve. Keep it up
It’s been a while since you’ve done this. Keep up the good work.
Great work Steve keep it up
In the nhl rule book you have .60 to make the hit Wilson saw .68 go on nhl network to see the rest they discussed it in my opinion it should have been a 5 minute major no suspension
Steve, you're still mixing up Tomas Nosek and Stefan Noesen.
Casey Lester Yup get it right @Steve Dangle
My team is Tampa but I was cheering more for Vegas these playoffs
thank you Steve ! my 20yr son is a (non hockey fan) fan also says th........ (you know)
shawnoo weldsparks but the (you know) will crash like Edmonton did between last and this season but even worse
That Tom Wilson comment keeps aging better and better
Great video Steve!
The Golden Knights and Capitals are fun and all - but they don't have victory puppies.
Go Knights Go!!! Go Knights Go!!! Go Knights Go!! 😄👏👏👏🏒🏒🏒
11:50 it’s Tomas. You were probably thinking of Noesen but close enough 😂
ROOTING FOR THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS. Always a Leafs fan though!
Dave Clarkson says wtf? ... automatic 10 gamer , it’s in the rule book ! They missed that one big time . Clarkson got 10 and didn’t even get in an altercation while Perron skated into Ovi and then crosschecked him after leaving the bench when lay was whistled down already ! Very curious to see how NHL reacts to this because it was obvious . I suspect Vegas will continue to have everything and anything go exactly there way , as usual and Perron will get a $59 fine ...
One major difference between Clarkson and Perron is that Clarkson left the bench specifically to join an ongoing altercation (a brawl). Perron didn't.
I think that Ovechkin could have been better that game, do you think that anyone else under performed in game one?
Nice Vegas jersey Steve 👍🏻
Love it!!!
Can you make a video about the Toronto Marlies ?
Steve, because there was no alcertation on the hit Tom Wilson laid on Jonathan Marchessault when David Perron cross-checked Alex Ovechkin, Perron will likely not be suspended for what he did. But, I think he will be fined.
This is always great content! Can they both win? I love both teams.
MISS THESE VIDS
Watch hockey for fun? I didn’t know fun included raising your BP and pulse through the roof. Wait but I do love hockey 😭
It's Tomas Nosek not Stefan Nosek
I heard you say that in another video too, just thought that was a mistake but now I gotta correct you
Egg Bou @Steve Dangle get it right
Dont really like the obvious crosscheck that lead to a tieing goal for Vegas, but it is what it is.
"That hit was so late it must be pregnant"
Almost tempted to unsubscribe just so I can resubscribe for that comment... bravo sir... bravo

Steve, what do I do if I REALLY liked the video, but am already subbed?
Please do this every year opposed to the one video after a champion is decided!
Dude Gladys Knight performed after the first period. What.
Completely forgot. You're right.
Nice, you got your Vegas jersey
Dammit dude, I wish I could get this kind of review for all the team's games in the regular season (Even though that would probably kill you)
*thumbs up!* different is good! :)
I'm amazed they didn't give a game misconduct to both Wilson and Perron
cup check sounds nice
Yehhh you got a vegas jersey
Knights in 4 or 5 and im a caps fan, they were completely outplayed all night.....
Go Knights Go baby!
How do you not mention the Reaves crosscheck right before his goal?!?!?!
2:05 "why do we watch hockey?" I thought it was for stress relief.....
awesome video, awesome finals, go wings!
"So late it might be pregnant" wow, just wow lol

I had the Knights going to the finals when the playoffs started, shoulda taken those bets...
To be fair, it still is an LFR. Unless you are no longer a leafs fan?
Steve should be our announcer at leafs games
I missed you Steve.
11:50 It's Tomas Nosek not Stephen
Steve you know it's silly to predict against Vegas, why do it again? Haha
Vegas quoted you
Golden Knights in 7.
6*
God I hope not
Probably 6 I think they will out grind the caps I dare say 5 but that would be disrespectful. The Knights always seem to have a bad game then they take over and attack a teams weakness and tighten up defensively
Caps* 5*
CAPS IN 7!!!!!
Omg .68 seconds after the puck left his stick. Get. Over. It.
