## Resource

For 40 minutes, the Colorado Avalanche had the Vegas Golden Knights at arms length protecting a 1-0 lead. Then, in a span of 127 seconds midway through the third period, it disappeared and with it, the Presidents' Trophy winners now need to win at least twice in Sin City in order to gain the Final. Vic and Neil talk it through and also look ahead to the East where favorite Carolina will try to avoid a similar 0-2 against Montreal.
