GAME 3 – MINNESOTA WILD 5 VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS 2 (MIN 2-1)

Recap: The Golden Knights were looking to take a 2-1 series lead with a Game 3 victory in Minnesota. The Wild jumped on the scoreboard first, minutes into the opening period. A few shifts later the home team doubled their lead. At the midway point of the frame Alex Pietrangelo cut Minnesota’s advantage to 2-1.

The Wild regained their two-goal lead 11 minutes into the middle frame. Minnesota took a 4-1 lead into the second intermission after scoring at the 19:58 mark of the period.

Vegas drew a penalty in the opening five minutes of the final frame but couldn’t convert any chances into a goal. However, Reilly Smith scored on the penalty kill to get the Golden Knights within two. Vegas failed on two more 3rd period power play chances and gave up an empty-net shorthanded goal.

The Golden Knights drop Game 3 to the Wild 5-2 and trail the opening round series two games to one. Game 4 is scheduled for Saturday afternoon. Puck drop against the Wild is scheduled for 1 PM. (Recap by Jason)

Analysis: The pushback everyone expected from the Golden Knights to open this game simply did not appear until it was too late. A too many men penalty gave the Wild the lead and got the ball rolling in the right direction. A second one made it a mountain for the Golden Knights to climb, and even though they appeared to be climbing it, one single mistake would be enough to halt all of the progress. That’s exactly what as another turnover deep in the defensive zone led to a Wild goal. (Recap by Ken)

Message from Game 2 didn’t come through, so what now?

Ken’s Three VGK Stars
*** Ivan Barbashev
** Reilly Smith
* William Karlsson

Cassidy says the linesmen clearly blew the call on the icing before the Boldy goal. Replay confirms that unequivocally.
He added though that they still have to make a play and it was one of two goals that came directly from below the goal line.

Got a little luck with the puck off the post. Got a great look in front. But the Wild are simply better tonight.
VGK are down 5-2 (again) and they are behind in a 1st round series for the third year in a row.

Akira Schmid is in the net for VGK.
This is the first time in Adin Hill's playoff career he's been pulled.

See that area right out in front of the goal. There's no where near enough action there, and that's a huge reason why VGK are struggling to score right now.
