According to his agent he is going back home so i'm guessing he'll be the caboose to team Lokomotiv. Edited December 24, 20177 yr by FrostyWinnipeg

December 30, 20177 yr comment_311412 Hopefully Roslo gets some time with skilled players. I can see why they were reluctant to call someone up as you have to reward a guy like Roslo by letting him collect the big paycheque but essentially he’s be either not dressing or playing 4th line. But good players find a way.
December 30, 20177 yr comment_311416 Nice to see roslovic get a break but Dano at least deserves a shot at redemption on 4th line first

January 1, 20187 yr comment_311537 Connor Hellebuyck is named the NHL's first star of the week. He finished 3-0 over that stretch-- including a 35-save shutout over the Edmonton Oilers Sunday -- with a combined GAA of 1.67 and save % of .952.

A proven GM, a proven HC, and some solid talent and depth - all significant advantages compared to previous expansion teams.
January 2, 20187 yr comment_311640 Florida gifted Vegas Jonathan Marchessault, Reilly Smith, and Gerard Gallant. Without that trio we're looking at a very different team. I hope VGK sent Florida a Christmas card. William Karlsson going from fringe 3rd liner to star top six player helps too

A junk pile came together to create a monster....I have no idea how it's possible.
January 2, 20187 yr Author comment_311643 Interesting article on where Laine ranks among some of the premier goal scorers this far into his career. https://www.tsn.ca/laine-on-track-to-become-nhl-s-next-premier-sniper-1.956848

It just seems like a perfect storm more than anything. Who knows if it'll continue but the Knights have themselves in a great position going into the second half of the season.
January 2, 20187 yr comment_311653 I saw an interview with Doughty and he said that Vegas is maybe the hardest team to play against b/c they give full effort on every shift. That what building a team full of grinders will give you. Getting breakout performances from guys like Karlsson and Haula doesn't hurt either.
January 2, 20187 yr comment_311657 I can totally understand a team like this being hard to play against because of the grinders, but I can't figure out how they're scoring....
January 2, 20187 yr comment_311661 Wonder how much of Vegas home success wains as team start making return trips. I think a lot of their success at home is more to do with unfamiliarity of building etc than the night life. Athletes are creatures of habit and like to have things known and comfortable.
January 2, 20187 yr comment_311668 VGK has some scoring punch. James Neal has scored 40 in a season, Marchessault scored 30 last year, David Perron and Reilly Smith have both been over 25. The expansion draft was kinder to VGK than any previous expansion team... they got some legit players.

Hard to argue that on paper, they're a top 3 team in the league but good for them. Good for the league too.
