Why am I still awake?

SPURGEON!!!!!!

I guess we don’t want to skate this period.

So on Prime, there is a documentary called Valliant about Vegas’ inaugural season. There were quite a few instances of revisionist history.

Why are we still playing music between plays? This is weird.

I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that we’re playing hockey in August.

I’m on a new schedule so I can watch part of this game...I just don’t know how long I’ll last. I also had to set up new work equipment today. What I had wasn’t compatible with Big Sur, so I needed new stuff. I now have two 27 inch 5K screens. It is wonderful.

Hello strangers. I hope we eventually get a decent start time.

I'm seeing conflicting reports on Twitter. One of our followers said that Vegas is on a flight home, but Russo says they're in their hotel rooms awaiting further instructions. It seems that on-ice officials have been told to book flights home.

Well that is a game I wish I had missed. In fact, I would have rather cleaned my kitchen and the fridge instead of watch this game. Anyway, here's your post-game, which was a joint-effort by LIG and I tonight. Defensive letdowns prove costly to Wild in 7-3 loss to Kings

FOLIGNO!!!!!

Did every Wild player treat the blades of their sticks with TEFLON instead of ROSIN?

Oh course, Kopitar.
