8:40 p.m. ET<\/p>\n
We have our first sense of argy-bargy tonight, not much, but a little in-your-face action.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you think about it, there has not been much of that in the first two games. A few minor skirmishes, but nothing too serious.\u00a0<\/p>\n
No one wants to take a dumb penalty that can cost their team the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As I type that, Seth Jarvis and Mark Stone go at each other a bit in the Carolina end.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Carolina is putting on the pressure, and seems to be controlling play, spending a lot of time in the Vegas zone. So far, Carter Hart has been up to the task, stopping Jordan Staal\u00a0a few minutes ago on a deflection try right in front.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As expected the music in here is heavy – they just played “Show Me What You’ve Got” by Powerman 5000.<\/p>\n
Earlier, the Vegas dance team just did a number to a Anita Ward’s “Knock on Wood.” That’s a classic 70s second.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Speaking of classic 70s, Christopher Cross is playing in Vegas tonight. That’s like Yacht Rock times 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"8:40 p.m. ET We have our first sense of argy-bargy tonight, not much, but a little in-your-face action.\u00a0…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":688946,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[385,99],"class_list":["post-688945","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688945","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=688945"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688945\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/688946"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=688945"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=688945"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=688945"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
