Knights on Ice â VGK Blow Away 3 Valuable Points with Just 40 Seconds Left From:
The VGK were headed into overtime, which would have prevented last nightâs game from being a 4-pointer. But with the faceoff to Fleuryâs left, William Karlsson drew the puck to the boards, clearly a safe choice, better than the puck drawn back to the point or out in front of Fleury. But Zac Whitecloud was picked off, disabling him from getting to the puck. Instead, Joonas Donskoi grabbed the loose puck and sent it up the boards to the point, where Bowen Byram sent a shot toward Fleury. That was tipped by Donskoi as he made his way from the boards toward the front of the net. Fleury made the initial save of the tip, but didnât control the rebound, which was picked up by Nazem Kadri just to Fleuryâs left. Kadri scooped up the loose puck and gave Colorado a much-needed 4-point win, beating the VGK by a score of 3-2 with just 40 seconds left in the game.
