00:03 >> All right, talk to me a little bit about this Vegas Golden Knights victory
00:06 over the Dallas Stars.
00:07 The Stars, one of the teams that headlined the Stanley Cup odds as we began.
00:14 The playoffs, I mean, the Vegas Golden Knights have a real knack for
00:18 these upsets in these series.
00:20 Do you see this being one of the more entertaining first round series overall?
00:23 >> Definitely, that's the best series on paper to me in the league.
00:28 You see Dallas, nobody's more loaded than them in terms of having three strong lines.
00:34 Hottest goalie in the league last month of the season was Jake Oettinger.
00:38 They're so deep, they added Matthew Shane in the offseason.
00:41 They have the rookie Logan Stankoven.
00:43 But it may not matter, right?
00:44 Because Vegas has been working the salary cap situation to perfection.
00:50 Long term IR, of course, Mark Stone came back from that lacerated spleen,
00:54 scored a power play goal.
00:56 They added Noah Hannafin, who's a stout defenseman.
01:00 He had a huge game in game one.
01:02 And also Tomas Hurdle scored a goal.
01:04 Tomas Hurdle is a majorly clutch playoff performer.
01:08 2019, look back from the Sharks days, scored ten goals and
01:12 got them to the conference final that year.
01:14 You gotta imagine that guy's been dying to play in the postseason for
01:18 quite some time as the Sharks took a turn for the worst in recent years.
01:22 But Vegas, now that they're healthy, I mean, man, they could go toe to toe.
01:27 I've actually picked before the Stone News, Vegas in seven,
01:31 to upset the Dallas Stars, but I think this series could go either way.
