even without "Patches, "Wild Bill" or "Marchy" for the VGK I think this game goes OVER the 5 1/2 total :shake:

Barndon "The Squirrel" Pirri with the opening goal for VGK 6 minutes into the 1st perod 1-0 VGK. assists Erik Brannstrom and Tomas Hyka. the Swede rookie D-man Barnstrom making a strong argument for making the team

Zack Fucale in goal for VGK vs Semyon Varlamov for Avalanche

teams better learn NOT to take penalties vs the VGK . TWO PP goals tonight by Brandon Pirri the opener Alex Tuch late 2nd and the an even by Erik Brannstrom early 2nd. 3-0 VGK end of the period. BOTH teams need to "OPEN the GATES" in the 3rd period for my OVERray:
