With my ever long lasting hatred for Arizona, I was bound to find issues with this Utah team, and trust me, I have. The world knows no bounds when the enemy of the people is staring you down, but I can report to the American people, and the world, we got the damn Mammoth.

Shorthanded goals are always so impressive but also inexcusable if you're Utah. The look of exhaustion and defeat on their faces made for great theater.

The definition of a close game

Shorty to win in double OT is peak.

Didn't really watch the game but I was there for the 3rd goal of the game I closed my eyes and yawned since it was so late in the day then I heard !!GOALL!! opened my eyes and out of disappointment turned off the game 8/10 would've rated it lower but clearly people enjoyed this game

Utah showing their weakness and lack of playoff experience. They are tiring out and unable to make the last ditch effort worthwhile for themselves. They put all forth just to fall in the end of 3rd period and then again in OT. The effort is there but when they just aren’t getting the puck in net with all the shots they are making they allow the game to go so long like this one it drains them. Now down by one in the series I just pray they make it to seven. Good job for VGK pushing it all the way to the end.

Shorthanded overtime goal by the Golden Knights???? Didn't ever expect the outcome of that game. Vegas is such a not defensive team, I was actually scared they were gonna get scored on when they got that penalty. Didn't expect a huge forecheck by Marner to get it to Howden. Vejmelka obviously didn't have the best game but at least he's been solid all playoffs. I think it's time for Hart to step away and maybe but in Hill.

Rating down from a 10 to a 9 because utah let them score when they were on the power play, pavel with the hat trick, he is performing crazy well in these playoffs, my goodness this first round of playoff hockey is spoiling us👀🍿

Mammoth need to stay out of the damn box

I tried and was very unsuccessful in actually watching this game. How do east coast fans actually do this?! Anyways, Vegas takes the series lead on a double overtime shorty!

I love these games because they've been consistently such high scoring. As thrilling as a good goaltending duel can be I think a high scoring series has incredible entertainment value as well I'm loving the back and forth action between these two teams.

East coast’s biggest opp

Complete breakdown by the Mammoth… UGH. Other than that, it was a very close game!

Brutal back to back OT losses for Utah. Will be interesting to see how they bounce back in Salt Lake City. What a great series so far.

Another amazing game from this series! It's been high scoring and exciting the entire time. Pavel Dorofeyev with a hat trick in regulation, and then in overtime, while shorthanded, Brett Howden forces a turnover and sends it into the back of the net to pull off a crazy victory. The series now heads back to Utah, where I expect the Mammoth to win handily at home, and then take down the Golden Knights in Las Vegas in game seven in overtime.
