What people are saying about Golden Knights-Capitals Game 1

No one does entertainment like Vegas does.

Power play goal was obviously great for VGK, but they are winning with their defensive work. Caps having all kinds of trouble in the neutral zone and getting no offensive zone time when they do get there. Just 1 shut in 11 minutes #CupFinal

@GoldenKnights Colin Miller closed at 60-1 @LVSuperBook to score first goal #StanleyCupPlayoffs #RJNow

William Karlsson scored 18 goals in 3 years with the Blue Jackets and tonight he scored his 50th of the year for Vegas

Entertaining opening period of the Cup final. With all the double off-days in this series, might actually have a chance to sustain some of that pace perhaps

I’ll take six more games just like this, thank you.

(This game hit the over in the second period. This has been your down low hockey wagering update)

This game is bananas. Carlson was almost caught in a brutal spot, ends up scoring beautiful goal off slick pass from T.J. Oshie. All tied again.

They're going to give that goal to Tom Wilson, but it was Fleury who kicked into puck into the net.
Ovi with the assist.
And it's 4-3 Capitals at 1:10 of the third.#RJnow

Ryan freaking Reaves. 4-4.

Hockey in Vegas really IS fun

— Bruce Arthur (@bruce_arthur) May 29, 2018

Tomas Nosek with the one-timer from the right side and it's 5-4 Vegas with 10:16 remaining in the third period. Unreal pass by Shea Theodore that probably should never make it through the slot to set it up.

This hockey game is all loads of fun. And one of the greatest stories in sports continues.

Vegas scores in the empty, will win 6-4. What a Game 1 this has been.

Nosek seals it with an empty netter and 2.7 left. Knights will hold on and win Game 1, 6-4. This is going to be a crazy series.

Hair on fire hockey introduces the Stanley Cup final to Las Vegas. I’m happy to see more of it as this series moves on. 1-0 VGK.

— Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger) May 29, 2018

Game 1 between Vegas and Washington was the first game in Stanley Cup Final history that featured four lead changes.

— Elias Sports Bureau (@EliasSports) May 29, 2018

It's over in Vegas - Golden Knights take Game 1.

The last 6 teams to win Game 1 have won the Stanley Cup...

The last team to win Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final but lose the series was the 2011 Canucks (lost to the Bruins). pic.twitter.com/XohJXgB9wy
