Carolina HURRICANES vs Vegas GOLDEN KNIGHTS / by Gregory Carter

Wow, what a game Saturday night. In the 2nd period the VGK jumped on Carolina goalie Fredrik Andersen and scored 4 straight goals in 6 and a half minutes leading to a goalie swap in the 3rd period. Brandon Bussi came in to settle down the VGK in what appeared to be a lost cause. In the 3rd period, motivated by the switch, the CANES found a way to to get the puck past Carter Hart scoring 4 straight unanswered goals. The game went into overtime only to see Shea Theodore score in the 2nd OT, in one of the weirdest plays ever, to win in sudden death. Obviously tonight is another night and the CANES need to forget about the loss. Coach Rob Brind-Amour will have his hands full this evening and it is anybody’s guess who is going to be between the pipes. Bussi looked like he belonged and it would not be a surprise to see him get the call. The crowd at T-Mobile will be buzzing and I believe the KNIGHTS will be ready for the onslaught.
