00:00:00All right, all right, all right. How's everyone doing? Hope you're all doing well. I'm doing well, Dex Raskin. And today I'll be playing some NHL 26.
00:00:16It'll be a pro mode. I'm the player for the Anaheim Ducks and it'll be a pro mode for NHL 26 in my second year.
00:00:30I got some drinks with me. Got some Hintz watermelon.
00:00:52Got some strawberries and cream Dr. Pepper.
00:01:00Got some diet Dr. Pepper.
00:01:13Got a can of Dr. Pepper as well.
00:01:29And I got some Coke. Is it Coke? Yes, it is.
00:01:46Let's go ahead and resume the stream.
00:02:04First game up is against the Nashville Predators.
00:02:07It's weird to pop now. That's good.
00:02:13I'm not sure that he saved that or it was just a bad shot.
00:02:37Fortunately, we lost the face-off.
00:02:46Oh, that's a nice save by the Nashville goalie.
00:03:07Sorrows.
00:03:08I'm a little sleepy today. I didn't get a full night's sleep, so if I'm not talking that much,
00:03:26that's why.
00:03:27Oh, dang, we missed.
00:03:28There we go.
00:03:29We're out to get the puck.
00:03:31Two shots and goalie.
00:03:32Actually, each team has two shots and goalie right now.
00:03:38So we got hit there.
00:03:39Now we're on offense.
00:03:40Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:03:41Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:03:42Now we're on offense.
00:03:43Now we're on offense.
00:03:44Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:03:45Now we're on offense.
00:03:46Now we're on offense.
00:03:47Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:03:48Now we're on offense.
00:03:49Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:03:55I was gonna say we can stand a little longer, but we actually turn the puck over.
00:03:56It's going to simulate our neck shift.
00:03:57Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:03:58Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:04:02Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:04:08Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:04:10Now we're on offense, so we can...
00:04:30Shift see got a little tongue-tied there
00:04:45Ah dang it we give up a goal
00:04:47You made me wrong that it was a good goal but I mean at the same time we shouldn't have given up
00:05:17There we go we have it
00:05:34Thought that was going to go in for a second
00:05:36Didn't obviously
00:05:48Got hit as we pass so
00:05:59That's a bad shot right to the goalie
00:06:04As we tied it up there
00:06:07That's how you get it done but to be fair the goalie did come
00:06:11Far out so
00:06:17That was a good goal in my opinion
00:06:31I'm glad we scored that we tied it up now
00:06:36It's going to be a face off
00:06:47You should have passed it when he had the chance
00:06:49We lost possession that's because he took too long to pass
00:06:59I need to knock my mic in my face cam really quick
00:07:01For a while for the rest of the video
00:07:03Know where that puck is coming from and make a high grade A save
00:07:20Well past the midway mark of this period
00:07:23We got a tie game
00:07:24We got a tie game
00:07:25we got a tie game
00:07:30Plankings won the face off here in the outboxing zone
00:07:31picked up along the board by Forsberg
00:07:34Going to use the button to knock him off the puck
00:07:37Dishes it to perfect
00:07:41Ana Hines moving it all in the lane
00:07:43And he side steps the checkpoint
00:07:47Clives to the page
00:07:49Scores
00:07:50And how good does that feel?
00:07:54You can see the selling.
00:07:56The energy is certainly there.
00:07:58And now it's about dictating the pace going forward.
00:08:00Next shift, critically important.
00:08:03No surprise there that another one goes in for him.
00:08:06I mean, he's the team's leading goal scorer.
00:08:08And everyone relies on him to really set the tone and put it in the net,
00:08:11a reason why they're successful.
00:08:13Anaheim's taking a one-goal lead here in this opening stanza.
00:08:17How does this now change the complexity?
00:08:19I think the coach wants to manipulate their bench
00:08:21now that they have dictated pace, James.
00:08:24But if you're an elite athlete, you're always pushing for more.
00:08:26One certainly isn't enough.
00:08:28You don't have enough runway to sit back and say,
00:08:30hey, you're going to post this one in.
00:08:32The Predators will play it in their own end.
00:08:35All right.
00:08:36Forsberg's got it along the boards.
00:08:40Next scores!
00:08:43I got two words for you.
00:08:45New game.
00:08:47Yeah, it certainly is, James.
00:08:49And who's going to come out on top by the beginning of this face-off?
00:08:52You want to be able to get that puck in the offensive zone
00:08:55and find a way to continue to attack.
00:08:58I love this goal because this is a combination of quickness and explosiveness here.
00:09:02You just look at the stride and how powerful it is.
00:09:05It creates the speed and the momentum to get him to the net for this goal.
00:09:08Nashville's evened it up right before the end of the first period.
00:09:20So what becomes the message now in the locker room, Cheryl?
00:09:23Well, you want to start the second the way you finish the first, right?
00:09:25And I think that's the pivotal thing is you want to make sure that you have urgency right from puck to off.
00:09:31And sometimes you don't want that break, James, because you're coming off of a shift.
00:09:35You're scoring a goal.
00:09:36You want to keep it going.
00:09:38Motion to function slow.
00:09:40Huge steal on his own end.
00:09:43He's already got two goals.
00:09:44Another one would be fantastic.
00:09:46There's a shot.
00:09:47Kicks Shea Hoard right there.
00:09:49A chance of shot.
00:09:52And another save.
00:09:54A timely save is everything to your team.
00:09:57And this goaltender, he bails his team out.
00:10:01Feeds it over to McTavish.
00:10:03And now he tries to get it across to Nyfist.
00:10:09Anaheim's got possession of the puck.
00:10:19And that'll put a bow on the first 20 minutes of action here tonight.
00:10:27We've got lots more still to come.
00:10:28Second period is just around the corner.
00:10:31Join us for our next team practice, which will be all in for the public.
00:10:35Admission is simply by donation, with all proceeds going to local charities.
00:10:39Just moments away from puck drop for second period action.
00:11:05Here we go.
00:11:06Second period underway.
00:11:07We're still tied.
00:11:08But let's see if somebody can open things up here.
00:11:11Well, Cheryl, already a third of this one played.
00:11:13What do you need for this one?
00:11:14Anaheim's game plan to start this second period needs to be to hold on to the puck,
00:11:18keep it simple, and not turn the puck over.
00:11:21I mean, their opponent has been jumping hard.
00:11:22They've got to be ready for it.
00:11:24But they've got to make better decisions with the puck.
00:11:28The Predators take possession off the faceoff.
00:11:32Ozone faceoff, James.
00:11:33Critical time to gain possession with that clean win.
00:11:36And with a tired group, they get that puck moving around and a real opportunity on net.
00:11:40Quick pass to Marcuseau.
00:11:45Moves the puck into the attacking area.
00:11:48The Ducks have it from their own end.
00:11:51Anaheim's got it against the boards.
00:11:54Oh, and there's a big time hit.
00:11:56Well, that's a massive and timely hit there, James.
00:11:59Saw his opponent with the head down, lined up perfectly, and through it.
00:12:03Just love the physicality and the intensity of this play.
00:12:06Stopped that one.
00:12:09Across the line, along the left wall.
00:12:12Couldn't catch up to that pass.
00:12:14Through the neutral zone, moving the puck along the side.
00:12:17Cut on the side with a glove by Gibson.
00:12:23This is an incredible athletic save, but this is all instinct.
00:12:26There's no time to put yourself to position.
00:12:28You just react, and if you get there, you get there.
00:12:30What a great job.
00:12:34Forsberg's got the puck in his own zone.
00:12:37And tries to make a diagonal pass to Malkin.
00:12:40And he takes the dish.
00:12:46Oh, and they can't keep the puck in the zone.
00:12:48They'll be forced to tag up.
00:12:53Quick shot!
00:12:54And that's turned aside with a glove.
00:12:58The Ducks have it now.
00:13:00Big time save by Seros.
00:13:03We just play perfectly in games.
00:13:05He gets tight to the shooter.
00:13:06There's no room to put it by him.
00:13:08The Ducks have a play.
00:13:10Ron eventually erupts on that one,
00:13:12because otherwise it would have been in the back of the net.
00:13:16Nashville's got the puck against the Bulls.
00:13:19Demise him on the slot, Ron.
00:13:29We haven't even hit the midway mark of the period.
00:13:32The next goal could be a big one, as we are tied.
00:13:38McTavish has won the draw here in their own zone.
00:13:41And they send it right back to him.
00:13:45Handles the patch.
00:13:47Feeds it on over to Everly.
00:13:50The Predators played along the boards.
00:13:53Everly's exploring options with the puck.
00:13:56Can't work with the save on that play.
00:13:58Well, this is just a prime example of doing what it takes
00:14:00to keep the puck out of the net.
00:14:02In this case, right off the noggin.
00:14:03Nashville's got it in their own zone.
00:14:11Sends the pass over.
00:14:14The Predators gain possession.
00:14:20Anaheim's got the puck in their own end.
00:14:22Moves it quickly over to Minchikov.
00:14:26Gaining speed through center, and here they come on the attack.
00:14:28And he makes the save.
00:14:32Slides the pass over to Truba.
00:14:36Gained momentum up along the side.
00:14:39Takes the shot.
00:14:40Good night, everybody!
00:14:42Works it across to McTavish.
00:14:44Slides the puck across to Quick.
00:14:48Makes the move and touch.
00:14:50Oh!
00:14:50Off the iron!
00:14:52I'd like to have it in this shot selection right there, James,
00:14:55but it goes off of the pipe.
00:14:57Doesn't go in the 4x6, and now they're chasing the game.
00:15:00Oh, we're going to have to check that one out again.
00:15:02It was just spectacular, James.
00:15:04When you're out-competing your opponent, you're dialed in.
00:15:07You're so athletic, you make those kind of saves.
00:15:08More than half the period has expired.
00:15:26We are all tied up in this one.
00:15:28Tied up!
00:15:31Tied up!
00:15:32Tied up!
00:15:32Both teams are set.
00:15:39We'll drop the puck here.
00:15:45Offenses don't face off, and he wins the draw.
00:15:48Here's a rock and a shot!
00:15:50Saros has the puck and holds on for a whistle.
00:15:54Quick's being relied upon for offense here, James,
00:15:56and why wouldn't you?
00:15:57Look at the point streak that he has going right now.
00:15:59They're leaning on him, and he's answering the call.
00:16:01Anaheim's won the draw.
00:16:08They'll go to work.
00:16:09The Predators move the puck in the defensive zone.
00:16:14Dumba's going to play against the half wall.
00:16:16The line by the glove, and the puck hops along.
00:16:21Here's a short pass to Ajo.
00:16:24Dishes it to Knifist.
00:16:29Takes it into the slide!
00:16:31What a save!
00:16:33Looks to get the puck over to Evangelista.
00:16:36Gets the puck in deep.
00:16:39Taken along the wall by Mikheyev.
00:16:41Knocked off the puck.
00:16:43Good use for the body on the play.
00:16:46And it's kicked away.
00:16:48Unable to reach that one.
00:16:51Quick's carrying it ahead.
00:16:53Fires it on net!
00:16:54Too much shot-picking the lane!
00:16:55Too much shot-picking the lane!
00:16:57Evans moves the puck.
00:16:59Dumps it in.
00:17:02And Ajoin's got a hold of it along the wall.
00:17:07Angles it over to Dumba.
00:17:09Ajoin's got a shot!
00:17:10Here's a shot!
00:17:12Oh, what a chance line!
00:17:14Well, this is frustrating, James.
00:17:15You do everything to get to the right position.
00:17:17You put yourself in a grade-A scoring area, and then you miss.
00:17:21That's frustrating.
00:17:21Ajoin's got a save!
00:17:25The Ducks scoop it up along the boards.
00:17:28Goes right to the case!
00:17:30Scores!
00:17:31And threes to Magic Number!
00:17:33Here's the hat track!
00:17:34And I think there's going to have to be an extra stoppage in play here
00:17:37as they collect all of the hats on the ice at home.
00:17:42Any time you're getting jostled by a defender
00:17:44and they're trying to shove or push you off the puck,
00:17:46you have to find ways to get low
00:17:48and maintain your balance on your edges.
00:17:51And he does a fabulous job of it while maintaining possession
00:17:53because he's got brave hands.
00:17:55But most importantly, I think it's the will.
00:17:57The second effort to stay on that puck.
00:17:59That leads to the goal.
00:18:01The Ducks are in the driver's seat now
00:18:02with that one-goal lead and timing, Cheryl.
00:18:05Lazier in this period. That's huge!
00:18:07That's a huge booster for them, James.
00:18:08Not only in terms of their confidence,
00:18:10but also the recognition of where they are heading into the intermission.
00:18:13Now it's about staying aggressive, but managing the puck.
00:18:16They need good blue-line decisions.
00:18:18And they take control of the puck here in the neutral zone.
00:18:23Oh, set that hit up perfectly.
00:18:27Anaheim's got a hold of it against the wall.
00:18:30Slides it diagonally too quick.
00:18:35Coming to the front!
00:18:37Scores!
00:18:38And he did it again!
00:18:39It's a night to remember!
00:18:41Wow!
00:18:42Oh!
00:18:43Oh, he's having himself a game as he changes.
00:18:45He's flying around the ice.
00:18:46I mean, if I'm the coach, I'm just telling his teammates,
00:18:48give him the puck!
00:18:51There's so many different ways to get up ice quickly, James.
00:18:54You can have quick, close support, and you can also get in behind the coverage
00:18:57and execute a perfectly timed stretch pass like that one.
00:19:00He's gonna get an assist for his efforts on that goal.
00:19:06Anaheim's delivered an absolute dagger here late in period number two, doubling up their lead.
00:19:10Well, you can hear and feel the energy just elevate after that goal, James.
00:19:14Everyone kind of standing up.
00:19:16The body language speaks for itself.
00:19:17Now it's about igniting another fire and trying to get another one.
00:19:24To the low slot!
00:19:25Nice save from point blank range.
00:19:28The goaltender has to be able to anticipate the play,
00:19:30and he does trust that.
00:19:31Gets clear to the shooter in the low slot and makes the save.
00:19:37Lance has been playing with his head up all night long here, James.
00:19:40He doesn't have one.
00:19:41He doesn't have two.
00:19:42He has three goals for the hat-trick in this game so far,
00:19:45and if you have a look back at some of them,
00:19:47I mean, he has just been lights out in and around the net,
00:19:50changing the angle of his shot, and he's leaving the goaltender guessing.
00:20:05Here in the late goings of the period, Anaheim's got a two-goal lead.
00:20:09They'd love to build on it.
00:20:11And nearing the final minute of the second.
00:20:18Oh, he just got enough of that one to keep it out.
00:20:22The player should never be left alone in this slot,
00:20:24but man, is the goaltender to task here.
00:20:26Gets out in front of it and makes the save.
00:20:28He serves!
00:20:29And he's not done yet!
00:20:32Wow!
00:20:33No!
00:20:34I mean, how many more are going to come now?
00:20:35James, the puck gets out open while he opened a long time ago,
00:20:38but that puck is following him around, and every chance he gets he's bearing it.
00:20:42This is a really smart shot from traffic, James, the recognition of the net front presence in screen,
00:20:49and the goalie drops to the butterfly position, really tries to make himself as big as possible,
00:20:54hoping that the puck just hits him because he can't see it.
00:21:02The Ducks probably don't want this period to end given the way things have played out here tonight.
00:21:06100% agree with you.
00:21:07They've got the mojo, they're moving the puck, they've got a comfortable lead.
00:21:10The last thing they want to do is have an intermission,
00:21:12which can pause and give their opponents some lack that they need.
00:21:15Quick feed tonight first.
00:21:18Short just gets a piece of it to keep it out. Wow!
00:21:22Toto just has to be frustrated with this performance tonight.
00:21:25Any time you step on the ice, you want to give your all for your team.
00:21:28You want to be consistent and give them an opportunity to win.
00:21:31But that save needs to set the tone for the rest of the game,
00:21:34and his team really needs to build some confidence off of it.
00:21:44Nashville's won the defensive zone draw.
00:21:46And now it's to Yossi.
00:21:48Moves the puck across to Malton.
00:21:56Well, there you go, 40 minutes in the box.
00:21:58All right, friends, go grab yourself some water, get hydrated,
00:22:01and then buckle up because we've got an exciting third period
00:22:04coming up in moments.
00:22:05If you'd like to draw your attention to the far part of the arena,
00:22:09we're welcoming all of our most hockey kids here on the 10th of this tournament.
00:22:16Welcome back to EA Sports.
00:22:18The final frame looms here as the officials set to drop the puck
00:22:22on period number two.
00:22:23They've dropped the puck here in the third, and it's going to blow out thus far.
00:22:27Let's see if there's any sort of response.
00:22:30Cheryl, 40 minutes into books now played.
00:22:32How do you view this one?
00:22:33The Ducks have been fantastic through 40 minutes of play, James.
00:22:36They've been good on both sides of the puck.
00:22:38They've gotten themselves a comfortable lead.
00:22:40Now it's about protecting it.
00:22:41You still want to push when you have the puck,
00:22:43but you have to be in good spots to protect defensively.
00:22:46Anaheim's got the puck along the boards.
00:22:50Pass out front.
00:22:54Oh, what a chance, and he fanned on the puck.
00:22:57Here they are on the attack.
00:22:59To his teammate.
00:23:01Here's the chance at front.
00:23:03And he denies that great opportunity there.
00:23:06Picking up steam in the offensive zone.
00:23:11Trots that puck tight to his chest.
00:23:14Forsberg's been feeling it here tonight.
00:23:21James getting a ton of puck touches and looks on net,
00:23:23and finally cashes in.
00:23:25That one's going to feel good.
00:23:26But I do love his process here.
00:23:28I mean, it shows maturation in his game as a young player.
00:23:31Sometimes you can get frustrated and let it take you off your game.
00:23:34And this time, he didn't let that happen.
00:23:36He found a way to get the tally.
00:23:40Slides the puck ahead to McTavish.
00:23:42Anaheim's got it in the wrong zone.
00:23:46Motion to McTavish.
00:23:48Along the side.
00:23:49Here they come to the neutral zone.
00:23:51Score!
00:23:52Slokie, Slokie continues to left the line.
00:23:56Well, it's 25 balls, James, and it ain't easy to score in this lead,
00:24:00but he has found the back of the net in different ways that many times.
00:24:05You know that goaltenders have been taught to drop into that butterfly position
00:24:09and really try to cover a majority of the net,
00:24:11trying to make themselves as big as possible, James.
00:24:14But the shooter, guess what?
00:24:15They work on their accuracy, and this is pinpoint as it's bearing home.
00:24:19The Ducks continue to bring up the score here in period number three.
00:24:29It's just been a terrific collective effort.
00:24:31Now they're on the home stretch, and the coaching staff has a real opportunity
00:24:34to utilize their bench, rest their star players,
00:24:36and this is cool when you're in a long season.
00:24:42Anaheim's looking to break out at the right end.
00:24:45Steps across the blue line.
00:24:48Climbing right to the front.
00:24:50Stars!
00:24:52And look who's loaded!
00:24:54Damn!
00:24:55Well, you don't replicate these nights very often, James.
00:24:57You've got to appreciate them when you get them
00:24:59and continue to have the stats.
00:25:01That's great puck moving, James, working hard away from the puck
00:25:05to support the puck carrier, and they gained that entry
00:25:08because they've gotten miracle advantage,
00:25:10and they capitalized and executed with it.
00:25:18And it looks like the hockey equivalent
00:25:20of going to the bullpen is happening here
00:25:22as they're going to change goaltenders.
00:25:24Anaheim's play arguably their most complete game of the season
00:25:28based on how they have delivered shots on net
00:25:31and lead here big time in the third.
00:25:33CeCe's got it in the defensive end.
00:25:36Threw the neutral zone into the offensive end.
00:25:40The Ducks get a hold of the puck along the boards.
00:25:45Bruno is taking it from his own end.
00:25:51Anaheim's got the puck at center.
00:26:00And that's put away by Dumbach.
00:26:04McKay is lugging the puck.
00:26:06Solid chip to slow down.
00:26:09And called for the offside.
00:26:11We'll get a face-off.
00:26:12Gibson's been a difference maker tonight here, James.
00:26:17And if you look at the sequence of saves,
00:26:19making the ones that you have to, right?
00:26:21The timeliness of it, finding ways to keep the puck out,
00:26:24and that just infuses confidence throughout the entire group.
00:26:27And you can often see it in the next shift after a big save.
00:26:30The Ducks have been relentless in the offensive zone tonight,
00:26:33and they continue to lead in the third.
00:26:35Picked up by Malkin.
00:26:38Quick pass to Marcheseau.
00:26:40Fires up! Oh, what a stop!
00:26:43Anaheim's performance tonight has been one of their best all season long, James.
00:26:49It's right from the puck drop, 60 minutes of complete play.
00:26:56Down the left wing.
00:26:57They gain the zone.
00:27:01The Ducks have a hold of it in the defensive zone.
00:27:04Moves it quickly over to Quick.
00:27:09Takes it to the front.
00:27:11And he elects to explore his options.
00:27:13McTavish has got control of the puck in the corner.
00:27:16Fires!
00:27:18My goodness, it's a fight for the ages of this park!
00:27:21It really is, James.
00:27:22He's playing with such confidence.
00:27:24Every time he takes it to the net, you know that he's not going to be denied.
00:27:27It's in him, he's attacked, and he does it all around the ice.
00:27:32You see players working from this area all the time in practice.
00:27:35A quick snapshot, but he can't get set to position in time.
00:27:38And it winds up in the back of the net.
00:27:40Anaheim's been way more active here tonight on the ice,
00:27:43and they have certainly capitalized on their opportunities
00:27:46and continue to lead in the third.
00:27:54Moves it ahead from off the wall.
00:27:58And he loses possession of the puck after trying to make one too many moves.
00:28:02He almost looked as if he was going to get by the defender,
00:28:04but that extra move took his face away, and he goes the other way.
00:28:07Big turn stop there.
00:28:09Gibson's going to opt for the whistle.
00:28:11I don't mind this call here in the third.
00:28:13Neither do I.
00:28:14Listen, he has been so dialed in all night, James.
00:28:16He has been excellent, arguably their best player.
00:28:18And he's trying to preserve the lead here
00:28:20by holding on to this one to get the face off.
00:28:25Evans has won the draw.
00:28:26They'll go to work more fast enough.
00:28:28Stopped by the goaltender getting a piece of that one.
00:28:31Man, is he ever difficult to defend, eh, James?
00:28:34I mean, so difficult when you're shoving,
00:28:36you're doing everything you possibly can
00:28:37to move and separate him from the puck.
00:28:39But his core strength and his balance
00:28:41is certainly the victor as he takes this one to the net.
00:28:47Nashville's staying possession along the boards.
00:28:49Tries to feed it over to Mikaela.
00:28:54Puck scooped up by McKavish.
00:28:56Picks off the pass in the defensive zone.
00:29:01Nashville's moving it into the offensive end.
00:29:04Anaheim's got control of it now from their own end.
00:29:08Through the open ice, they're picking up steam.
00:29:17And there it is!
00:29:20Cook's night is one he won't soon forget
00:29:22and a reminder to the lead that when he is on,
00:29:25he's as dangerous as against offensively.
00:29:27He's dead.
00:29:52Hey!
00:29:55Hayden?
00:29:57No.
00:29:58No!
00:30:04huuup!
00:30:05Heaps ہ podcast川
00:30:13Who leads us?
00:30:17How did they ask us?
00:30:18What do we call them as against strings?
00:30:19Who also equals who is for viable power or a Зμ?
00:30:21I'll see you next time.
00:30:51I'll see you next time.
00:31:21Hi everybody, welcome back to EA Sports.
00:31:27We're in Anaheim, California, or as the cool kids know it, as the OC, as the Ducks are ready
00:31:33to fly.
00:31:34Both teams are lined up and we are set to get things going.
00:31:40The Penguins have won the draw and we are now underway.
00:31:47Taken by Carlson.
00:31:49Loses possession after he takes a little hit.
00:31:50Oh, it makes a save just about enough to keep it out of.
00:31:58Huso's made a great save and even better as the redirect to the corner.
00:32:02Wax it into the offensive zone.
00:32:03The Penguins gain possession along the wall.
00:32:05Feeds the puck to Carlson.
00:32:09This looks by the check.
00:32:10Right into Marstead.
00:32:11Fantastic save.
00:32:12Huso's a great goaltender who understands where the threats are and this one's in the slot
00:32:24area and he manages to get to position and make the save.
00:32:26Here's a short pass to Crosby.
00:32:27Slides it up to Quick.
00:32:28He's got a save.
00:32:29Oh, what a save.
00:32:30Who was that masked man?
00:32:31Well, the goaltender gets right to the top of his crease and I just love how technically
00:32:35sound he is, but he's also very athletic so he covers a lot of ground.
00:32:53He does that to make the save.
00:32:55Oh, great move to sidestep the check.
00:33:00And that caroms off one of his teammates in front.
00:33:04He scores!
00:33:05And just like that, it's a 1-0 hockey game.
00:33:10It started like a freight train just steamrolling their opponent, James.
00:33:14I mean, they really dictated right from the onset of this game.
00:33:17That tells me one thing.
00:33:18They were prepared coming in.
00:33:20It's players like these that know how to lead the charge and really do it.
00:33:24change any momentum swing in the game.
00:33:26I mean, he doesn't need much time or space.
00:33:28He knows how to score.
00:33:29It's the reason why he's their leading scorer.
00:33:31Lots of hockey left to be played in this period.
00:33:341-0 is where we sit at this point.
00:33:36Pittsburgh's going to start off with the puck here in the neutral zone after winning that faceoff.
00:33:40Anaheim's holding a noticeable edge in the shot department here in the first and they lead as a result.
00:33:52It passes quick stick, lands on the puck here at center.
00:33:57And sends it just out of reach.
00:34:00And now he moves it to Lowry.
00:34:02And he takes the pass.
00:34:05Quick feed to Lowry.
00:34:07Denies him in front.
00:34:09The Ducks will play it from the defensive zone.
00:34:13Oh, we'll get some tired defenders as icing as the call.
00:34:18Quick's feeling it lately.
00:34:20James, I mean, just look at the score sheet.
00:34:22I mean, his point streak is off the charts.
00:34:24Everyone knows just get him the puck.
00:34:26He is the generator of offense.
00:34:28Everyone wants to play with him right now.
00:34:30Blast from the play line.
00:34:32Turns of the way.
00:34:34Moves it to McTavish.
00:34:36The Ducks played along the wing.
00:34:41Quick feed down low.
00:34:43Moves inside.
00:34:44Oh, how did he get it?
00:34:46One more time.
00:34:47What a stop by Will Stahl.
00:34:49Whether you're a player or a goaltender,
00:34:51so much of the training is about reaction.
00:34:53And you can certainly tell that it has come in handy for him
00:34:56because he makes an incredible save just by seeing Stinks alone.
00:35:00Here's the chance.
00:35:03Oh, that's a great shot clock there.
00:35:05Well, yeah, I mean, it's a grade-A scoring chance,
00:35:07and you want to make sure that you get in front of that one,
00:35:09and he did.
00:35:10He gets all of it.
00:35:11Oh!
00:35:12Oh, he got a little sliver of it.
00:35:14And it stays out.
00:35:16The shots come from the middle of the ice,
00:35:18and he did have some heat on it,
00:35:19but he's ready and waiting for it.
00:35:21He's to position, and he makes the save.
00:35:23Pittsburgh's got the puck along the wall.
00:35:26Quick pass to Graves.
00:35:28And now he angles it across to Kane.
00:35:35More than half the frame has been played here.
00:35:46The Ducks are currently sitting in the driver's seat,
00:35:48leading 2-0.
00:35:52Back underway as he wins the draw inside the offensive zone.
00:35:56Played big in the moment there.
00:35:58The Ducks didn't control the puck against the wall.
00:36:01Oh, he's stick-handling in his own zone.
00:36:07Pittsburgh's got the puck.
00:36:09Here they come up along the wing.
00:36:15Puts it on it,
00:36:16and the puck dies with the Trapper's save.
00:36:19Center's glide into the Ducks.
00:36:21We're ready to get things back going again.
00:36:26Play resumes here as he wins the draw inside the offensive zone.
00:36:32Feeds the puck up too quick.
00:36:35Cut it to the slot!
00:36:38And that's deflected off someone in front.
00:36:42Oh, what a hit!
00:36:44You might say they reached the end of the road.
00:36:46Yeah, certainly, James.
00:36:48And these are the ones that the coach loves.
00:36:50They always say,
00:36:51play on your toes.
00:36:52Play a service.
00:36:53Though this play displays that, right?
00:36:55Closing quickly.
00:36:56Being aggressive.
00:36:57Great spacing.
00:36:58Line up your check.
00:36:59Hammer against the wall.
00:37:04The Ducks win it.
00:37:05Moves it quickly over to Quick.
00:37:09Carries the puck through the neutral zone.
00:37:11The Penguins looking against the half wall.
00:37:17Cuts round by Graves.
00:37:18And that goes off of Bonnie.
00:37:20All alone!
00:37:24He scores!
00:37:26What a goal!
00:37:27A finish on the breakaway!
00:37:29This is all generated by his speed change.
00:37:32He has one side on his opponent,
00:37:34and then he becomes two, three,
00:37:35and then he's in open ice.
00:37:36And he makes no mistake.
00:37:37While he's showing a lot of patience on this breakaway,
00:37:40he knows where everyone is
00:37:42and the pressure that's coming in behind.
00:37:44Mowing the correct amount of time,
00:37:46not panicking,
00:37:47and letting his instincts do the work.
00:37:53There's the end of period number one.
00:37:54Both teams will grab a quick breather.
00:37:56You can grab a hot dog,
00:37:57and we'll be back with second period action in a moment.
00:37:59Fans back in their seats.
00:38:01Teams are on the ice.
00:38:02They're ready to drop the puck here for period number two.
00:38:07Well, let's see if there was any message sent in the dressing room here
00:38:12before the start of the second,
00:38:14because it was one-sided, to say the least, in the first.
00:38:17All right, partner.
00:38:18We've got a pretty good sample size
00:38:20of what we've seen in this one tonight.
00:38:21Your assessment?
00:38:22The Ducks with an impressive start to the opening frame,
00:38:24not just because of their ability to connect and finish
00:38:27with their opportunities,
00:38:28but their takeaway stream.
00:38:30I mean, they're creating a ton of turnovers
00:38:32because they're first all over the ice.
00:38:34Takes the feed from his own end.
00:38:36That's a smart heads-up defensive play by Kovacs.
00:38:42The Ducks have it against the wall.
00:38:44And that's just out of reach.
00:38:46Icing is the call.
00:38:48We'll get a face-up at the other end.
00:38:54Crosby's the leader of this team, James.
00:38:56He knows exactly what to do.
00:38:58He has been in these situations before.
00:39:00He's got to put this team on his back
00:39:01with this offensive zone face-off
00:39:03and lead the charge.
00:39:05McTavish has gained possession
00:39:07and has great work inside.
00:39:08The face-off circle pays off again.
00:39:12And now it's over to Nyfist.
00:39:17Takes the feed.
00:39:21Minchukov's moving the puck through his own zone.
00:39:23Hinged up along the boards.
00:39:25Anaheim's got the puck now.
00:39:27He's been dangerous tonight.
00:39:29Two boards, puck on his stick,
00:39:31and he's at the hat.
00:39:32Goaltender covers it up,
00:39:34and we'll get a reset here.
00:39:39Lots of time left in this period,
00:39:41and the ice has been tilted to this point.
00:39:443-0 is where we sit right now.
00:39:46Teams are ready for the draw.
00:39:48The Lionsmen about to drop the puck.
00:39:50And they win the draw now.
00:39:52Let's see what they can do with it.
00:39:53And now it's grabbed by Carlsen.
00:39:54Along the right ball
00:39:55and into the offensive end.
00:39:56Sends it over to McTavish.
00:39:57Pucks sent down the ice.
00:39:58We'll get an icing.
00:39:59They win the draw and go on the attack.
00:40:03The pressure's on the defensive side of the puck,
00:40:05but they win it clean,
00:40:06and they have an opportunity right away
00:40:07with the tired group that they're playing against.
00:40:09Oh, smart heads up playing with the bank pass.
00:40:10Moves it around and on the hot wall.
00:40:12And they have an opportunity right away
00:40:13with the tired group that they're playing against.
00:40:15They win the draw and go on the attack.
00:40:25The pressure's on the defensive side of the puck,
00:40:28but they win it clean, and they have an opportunity right away
00:40:30with the tired group that they're playing against.
00:40:33Oh, smart heads up playing with the bank pass.
00:40:37Moves around on the hop line.
00:40:39Gives them nothing in front.
00:40:41And will get the whistle after their goaltender hangs on.
00:40:45Plenty of playing time left in this spring.
00:40:50It has been a one-sided affair.
00:40:52Three-nothing is where we sit.
00:40:55The Ducks come up with the defensive zone draw.
00:40:59And now he tries to get it across to Knifus.
00:41:03Here's a chance in front.
00:41:06Blocked, and he may have just stopped a goal.
00:41:07I think he did, James.
00:41:09I mean, you've got to protect the house,
00:41:10especially when it's a great threat shot like that,
00:41:12and he finds a way to get in front of that and quick.
00:41:15Anaheim's got the puck inside the defensive zone.
00:41:19Throws it in.
00:41:22Pittsburgh's got the puck.
00:41:24And they'll battle for that loose puck along the boards.
00:41:27And he coughs it up with the pass.
00:41:32Anaheim's got control of it now here in the offensive end.
00:41:34Swin' it by the check.
00:41:35Swin' it by the check.
00:41:37A chance!
00:41:38Comes up with a monster save in front.
00:41:41I would have lost the puck three times by the time that I've been handled like that by the coverage.
00:41:45I mean, but he does it.
00:41:46He just knows how to move and maneuver his body around the puck.
00:41:50He can shield it, and he maintains possession for a great shot on net.
00:41:53Shuts him down.
00:41:54Into the offensive end, right off the middle.
00:41:59Huts it over.
00:42:01Oh, he got a piece of it to keep it out.
00:42:03Quicks ready for the draw as we get set to resume this power play.
00:42:16Sissons wins the defensive zone base off.
00:42:23The Penguins have it now.
00:42:25And tries to make a diagonal pass to Sissons.
00:42:28Broken up at center by Raquel.
00:42:30Pittsburgh's got a hole in it along the wall.
00:42:33Big time stop!
00:42:34It's good!
00:42:36White with a minute finish!
00:42:38And they make it click!
00:42:41He's not even going to get the more than a secondary assist on this one, James.
00:42:45But he starts the play. There is no question about that.
00:42:48You can't get goals if you don't have the puck.
00:42:50Someone has to get in there.
00:42:52And it all starts with a heavy body check to be able to retrieve the puck.
00:42:55The Ducks are playing what might be their most impressive performance that I've seen all season.
00:43:00And we're only in period number two, Sharon.
00:43:02Yeah, I mean, their offense has simply exploded, hasn't it, James?
00:43:05I mean, they have been a force to be reckoned with.
00:43:08And it's a ton of fun when you're patting your stats.
00:43:10Well past the midway mark of this period.
00:43:12And Anaheim's got a three-goal lead.
00:43:16Pittsburgh's ready to go on the attack.
00:43:18Takes a shot!
00:43:20Oh, it uses the blocker to stop that one.
00:43:22Nice save by Husso!
00:43:25And there's the whistle, icing the call.
00:43:31Quick's been patting the stats tonight, and it's all been earned.
00:43:35I mean, when that puck is on his stick, he is creating both time and space.
00:43:39And when he's going to the net, six on the ice, the game's all about habits in the offensive zone.
00:43:44And he's showing all of them right now.
00:43:58Centers get set as they're ready to drop the puck again.
00:44:01And they win the offensive zone face-off.
00:44:11Now let's see if they do capitalized.
00:44:14Moves it to quick.
00:44:18Anaheim's got the puck against the half wall.
00:44:21Here's a chance!
00:44:22Oh-ho!
00:44:23Great glove save!
00:44:25Where'd that come from?
00:44:26Well, this is such a quick shot that comes from the slot that you have to have good reflexes
00:44:31to be able to make that glove save.
00:44:36The Penguins win the draw.
00:44:39Moves the puck over to Bemster.
00:44:44It's a solid defense of work in the road, man, with the paycheck.
00:44:48Here's a short pass to quick.
00:44:50Solid hit on the play.
00:44:54Throws to the crease!
00:44:55Oh, and now it pucks up short as he just gets enough of that one!
00:45:00Hold on to this!
00:45:03Looking to make something happen along the boards.
00:45:06Shock!
00:45:07Stones in with the blocker!
00:45:09Husserl's been a consistent presence in the crease, James.
00:45:12I mean, he's made the stops he's needed to, but his team's playing extremely well,
00:45:15and that's why they have a comfortable lead.
00:45:17Long jab in front!
00:45:18That's broken up!
00:45:20Quick pass across to Lawton!
00:45:23He carries the puck up along the wing.
00:45:26Getting a little too physical to maintain possession.
00:45:29They go on the attack from the left side.
00:45:33Pittsburgh's got a hold of the puck now.
00:45:35Works it across to Lowry.
00:45:39Closed the puck.
00:45:42Big hit!
00:45:43That frees up possession.
00:45:45Knifus into the offensive zone now on the attack.
00:45:49Puck picked up by Kreider.
00:45:51Slides it across!
00:45:5240 minutes down, still another 20 to go here in this one.
00:46:06Join us for period number three next.
00:46:13Welcome back, everyone.
00:46:15They say three is the magic number, and here we are with period number three.
00:46:20Third period underway here.
00:46:22Oh, this has been a total squash to this point.
00:46:25Let's send it over to Cheryl Pounder and get her assessment of what she's seen so far tonight.
00:46:29Anaheim's 20 minutes away from closing out a dominant performance.
00:46:33James, they've been defensively responsible.
00:46:35They've provided a lot of offense when they've gotten into the offensive zone.
00:46:38Now it's about seeing the finish line and closing it out properly.
00:46:41Oh, he just gets a piece of it to keep it out.
00:46:45Quick feed to Quick.
00:46:48Drives it to the crease.
00:46:50Oh, a clutch save.
00:46:53That's a fantastic save by the goaltender, but his team has to do a better job of protecting the middle of the ice.
00:46:58Those high-danger scoring chances eventually go in.
00:47:01There's a stop with the blocker by Husso.
00:47:05Moves it to Quick.
00:47:08There's a shot.
00:47:10What a save by Gostar.
00:47:13Quick pass to McTavish.
00:47:15Here's a shot.
00:47:16Oh, what a save in front.
00:47:19Does a great job with some great pushes to get to the top of this piece and make the save from a high-danger area.
00:47:25Anaheim's got the puck at the defensive end.
00:47:31The Penguins gain possession on their own end.
00:47:36Here they come, down the right side and on the attack.
00:47:40Shot, redirected off a stick.
00:47:42To the trap.
00:47:47Oh, to Wise up on the play.
00:47:49And this is a great play, but...
00:47:51Score!
00:47:51And looking for reaction on the ice.
00:47:54His first of the season and his teammates look just as pumped.
00:47:58The Ducks continue to attack the net here at period number three, adding yet another call to their score.
00:48:05But in all areas of the game that have really been terrific tonight, James, have also enjoyed the communication that we're seeing on the ice.
00:48:11Not just the body language, but also the vocalness.
00:48:14I mean, they're creating all over the ice, and it's been real fun to watch.
00:48:18Anaheim's shown no signs of slowing down here tonight as they continue to lead by a wide gap in the third.
00:48:25And he totally whips on that one.
00:48:31Pittsburgh's got the puck in their own end.
00:48:34They're looking to make something happen through the neutral zone now.
00:48:39The Ducks gain control of the puck.
00:48:42Through the neutral zone now, picking up steam.
00:48:44Moves it quickly over to Carlson.
00:48:48The Penguins cross the blue line and are on the attack.
00:48:52And takes a two out of the offensive end to find some space at center.
00:48:56Moves the puck along the half goal.
00:48:59Oh, the Stops down one that was served up with a whole lot of spice.
00:49:06More than half the period left to play.
00:49:09Anaheim's turned this into a blowout now, leading by four.
00:49:12And they win the draw here in their own end.
00:49:18Pittsburgh's looking to break out.
00:49:20Oh, some strong physicality on the play.
00:49:24And he catches that one with the glove.
00:49:26Goaltender covers up.
00:49:28We've got a stoppage in play.
00:49:31The Ducks have looked good tonight, especially offensively here in this third period.
00:49:35McTavish has won it off the face-off.
00:49:45Anaheim's got a hold of the puck.
00:49:47And he takes the feed.
00:49:50Quick's been having himself a game, James.
00:49:51He's dancing all over the ice.
00:49:53He's got his legs underneath him.
00:49:55He's got...
00:49:55Scores!
00:49:56There's number three of the season.
00:50:00He's done it.
00:50:01Are you kidding me, James?
00:50:02What a milestone for him.
00:50:04I mean, he doesn't need much time or space.
00:50:06You've got to keep your eye on him if you're the opponent.
00:50:08Yes, he gets rid of the pass.
00:50:11Well, the Colt down, you get the big piece of this shot here, James.
00:50:14He's got to make their save.
00:50:15Unfortunately, it trickles in.
00:50:17He's not going to like it.
00:50:18He'll want that one back.
00:50:19And Anaheim's added yet another one here to the total tonight.
00:50:44What a performance.
00:50:45Yeah, they've had the puck on their sick for a majority of this game.
00:50:48And you know the coaching staff is going to be impressed.
00:50:50Hey, maybe they'll get the day off tomorrow.
00:50:52Here's a short pass to Lawton.
00:50:55Anaheim's top line has been just that tonight.
00:50:57They've contributed offensively, and there are reasons they're in the lead.
00:51:02Touched to the point.
00:51:04Oh, and somehow he gets a sliver of it and keeps it up there.
00:51:09Denies them in close.
00:51:11I love how aggressive he plays the shooter on the inner slot here, James.
00:51:14He knows that he's got to take away the net,
00:51:17so he gets out and challenges to make the save.
00:51:19The Ducks can simply take this on cruise control
00:51:22based on the lead that they now have here in the third.
00:51:27Pittsburgh's won the defensive zone draw.
00:51:30Quick feed to Lawton.
00:51:31They've got some emotion here, and it comes up to the save.
00:51:38And another stop.
00:51:40The ball-tenders have the last line of defense for a reason,
00:51:43and this time he bails this team out.
00:51:45Outside the call.
00:51:46We're going to face off coming up.
00:51:51Some last-second communication before both teams get ready to drop the puck here.
00:51:55McTavish has won the draw at center.
00:52:00Nice defensive robbery with the stick.
00:52:05Anaheim's moving it up the ice.
00:52:07Feeds it over.
00:52:09Stooped into the trapper by Dostal.
00:52:11Crosby's won the draw in his own end.
00:52:27Now let's see if they can clear it.
00:52:30Pittsburgh's got him along the wall.
00:52:32Puck scooped up by Crosby.
00:52:34Oh!
00:52:35Wow!
00:52:36Devastating hit there!
00:52:38Oh, painful, James.
00:52:39I felt that one in the broadcast booth.
00:52:42Nyquist's going to have to find his footing after that last hit here, James.
00:52:45I think he was injured on the play.
00:52:47I mean, he took a massive hit, and he just seemed to take it the wrong way.
00:52:56And they've got the puck after that neutral zone faceoff.
00:53:00Odd man rush!
00:53:06Test the feed.
00:53:09Right off Main Street and on the attack.
00:53:13Quick shot!
00:53:14Stores him in front.
00:53:16There's the whistle as the puck stopper likes to hang on.
00:53:30Anaheim's got it in the defensive zone.
00:53:33Gaining momentum along the wing.
00:53:35Offside the call.
00:53:37We'll get a reset.
00:53:49The Ducks win the draw here in the neutral zone.
00:53:53With possession along the wall.
00:53:56Lest the wrister fly.
00:53:59Picked up along the wall.
00:54:00Oh, what a first save!
00:54:03Wow!
00:54:04And that's poked away in the offensive zone by Terry.
00:54:07I love this project by the defender, and this isn't easy.
00:54:10You know, the pace of play and the speed coming down on you, you have to make sure that that timing is correct.
00:54:15Because if you miss, they're by, and you look pretty silly.
00:54:18Officials have got both teams ready, and it looks like play is set to resume here.
00:54:24Grabbed along the board by Terry.
00:54:28The Penguins look playing in their own end.
00:54:31Angles it over to McTavish.
00:54:34Anaheim's got him along the wall.
00:54:36And that pass is redirected.
00:54:39Pittsburgh's moving the puck through center ice.
00:54:41Big shot for the back end, and that's blocked in traffic.
00:54:48Puck sent over to Quick.
00:54:51The Ducks carry it along the wall.
00:54:54Takes a shot.
00:54:55The Stahl's got the puck, and he's gonna hang on.
00:55:02Anaheim's had a lot of success tonight on their scoring chances,
00:55:05and look at the result here late in this third period.
00:55:09Pittsburgh's taking possession in their own end.
00:55:11Slides it diagonally to Rust.
00:55:14The Penguins are on the attack.
00:55:18Fires it on net.
00:55:20Stops it's hold.
00:55:23Puck moved over to Quick.
00:55:25Gaining steam here on the attack.
00:55:28Denies him!
00:55:30The Stahl's in such great position.
00:55:31He's able to redirect that puck to safety right to the corner.
00:55:35Fantastic save!
00:55:37Got the back saves there!
00:55:39Just fantastic work by the goaltender, making consecutive saves.
00:55:44How athletic!
00:55:49Crosby's going to have to keep his head up, James.
00:55:51I mean, he paused that angrily on hometown player,
00:55:54and the crowd is frustrated, and they're booing every time he touches the puck.
00:55:58Gets it over to Terry.
00:55:59Gets it over to Terry.
00:56:06Come on, man!
00:56:07And that'll do it tonight!
00:56:10Quick, Patrick leads the way on route to victory tonight.
00:56:14Yeah, he got himself in good position, didn't he?
00:56:15He's got pure goals for it.
00:56:17He didn't disappoint tonight.
00:56:18Puck!
00:56:19If you'll Nat же worth it...
00:56:393
00:56:403
00:56:404
00:56:414
00:56:413
00:57:41Okay, let's settle down, everyone. Let's get the questioning period started.
00:57:45Only a few games in, still early in the season. How are you feeling about your performance?
00:57:55Over the course of the next few games, what are you going to really focus on?
00:58:00That's the last question for today. Thanks, everyone.
00:58:18Anaheim's got the advantage having won the last contest in this rivalry.
00:58:47Physicality and offense were on full display the last time these two teams met.
00:58:52Centers are lined up, official ready to drop the puck.
00:58:59The Ducks kick things off by winning the opening faceoff, and here we go.
00:59:06A shot! Oh, fantastic stop here!
00:59:10It really is amazing to watch and maintain possession of this puck while his opponent is on and out.
00:59:15They're pushing and they're shopping, they're doing everything they can.
00:59:18But he's resilient, he's got a willingness to his game, but he's also gotten power.
00:59:21Power, you can see it in his lower half and the balance and coordination it takes to get this puck to the net.
00:59:27Pass across to Barbashek, and now he moves it to Eichel.
00:59:35Reeves it perfectly breaking up the play.
00:59:39Carries it into the offensive end up the middle.
00:59:42Here's the chance, sends it in front.
00:59:45What a chance for the KK!
00:59:47Takes the shot!
00:59:48And Ducks is down!
00:59:50The Ducks have it in the offensive zone.
00:59:54Here's a chance in front.
00:59:58Big time stop!
01:00:00And the puck's thrown it away.
01:00:02Both sides digging into that puck along the wall.
01:00:07Vegas takes hold of the puck.
01:00:09Tries to feed it over to Eichel.
01:00:12Carries it across the line.
01:00:15Here's a shot!
01:00:16Walker stopped by Gibson!
01:00:19Stooped up along the wall by McTavish.
01:00:22Retreats with the puck inside the defensive zone.
01:00:25And he's pulled over to the ice and loses the puck.
01:00:29Anaheim's got the puck along the wall.
01:00:32Taken by Eichel.
01:00:35And he slides in quickly to Larson.
01:00:39Through the neutral zone up along the wing.
01:00:42Larson's got it against the boards.
01:00:46Anaheim's got the sledgehammer to the puck.
01:00:49Moose it to Terry.
01:00:50Slides it across to Quick.
01:00:53Moves into the slot!
01:00:55Oh, a clutch save!
01:00:57Hill is aggressive and at the top of his crease
01:01:00and makes an outstanding save from the slot.
01:01:03Anaheim's got possession at center.
01:01:06And now he angles it across to Kreider.
01:01:08Big time offensive play.
01:01:10Let's go, Ducks!
01:01:12Let's go, Ducks!
01:01:14Let's go, Ducks!
01:01:16Let's go, Ducks!
01:01:18Let's go, Ducks!
01:01:19In the final moments of this period.
01:01:22Still scoreless in this one.
01:01:27McClavish has won it in their own end.
01:01:29Handles the puck!
01:01:32The Ducks take it along the wall.
01:01:35Quick pass across to Barbashev.
01:01:38And now it's over to Eichel.
01:01:41The Ducks get in possession.
01:01:45Oh, and some smooth skating to lose the defender there!
01:01:51The Ducks have it behind the cage.
01:01:53Vegas tries to break out from their own end.
01:01:57Along the side, here they come through the neutral chain.
01:02:00Sizzling shot it in into the seam!
01:02:03Streaking through center, they go on the attack.
01:02:06Dishes it off!
01:02:08No loop without one to get through.
01:02:11Puck grab by Eichel.
01:02:14Quick pass to McTavish.
01:02:16Anaheim's on the attack.
01:02:20Dishes it!
01:02:21Dishes it!
01:02:22Stuffs the rocket of a shot!
01:02:24No!
01:02:25Works it across to Kirby.
01:02:26Dattle and Sussan loose puck around the boards.
01:02:34There's the horn for period number one as it comes to an end.
01:02:37We've got lots more action.
01:02:38Two more thirds of this one to go.
01:02:40Stay with us.
01:02:41Both teams with a chance to recharge and refresh,
01:02:46and this second period about set to get underway.
01:02:50Still zeros on the board as we are now underway in the second.
01:02:54Well, Cheryl, we've got 20 minutes under our belts in this one.
01:02:57How do you sum up the performance?
01:02:59Anaheim's driving play right now, James, and they're dictating it.
01:03:02The only thing they're not dictating is the scoreboard.
01:03:04This is a scoreless game that can help the majority of the shots
01:03:07and just need to continue on with it, continue with the game plan,
01:03:10and when we go in.
01:03:12Kervitz has got the puck in his own zone.
01:03:15On the attack along the boards.
01:03:17The Golden Knights get a hold of the puck in their own end.
01:03:20And a heads-up kick pass over to his teammate.
01:03:23Here's a short pass to Eichel.
01:03:26Great use of the stick here at center ice.
01:03:29Shot!
01:03:31Stopped by the goaltender.
01:03:33Touch to the front!
01:03:36Sends a pass over.
01:03:39Fires it!
01:03:43Fires it!
01:03:44That goes wide!
01:03:45Picked up along the boards by Barbashek.
01:03:47Effective use of the paddle on that one.
01:03:50The Dutch move it in.
01:03:52Here's a back win!
01:03:55Huge save on the play!
01:03:58Scores!
01:03:59And the clock attack strikes!
01:04:00They bend, but they don't break here, James.
01:04:09This is a 200-foot play.
01:04:10When you take care of business in your own end,
01:04:12it ends up going the other way.
01:04:14It is something that coaches look for.
01:04:16How you defend, how you can turn pucks over and get going north.
01:04:19They capitalize, they execute, and they wind up on the score sheet.
01:04:22That's both teams set up back at center ice.
01:04:27And really no surprise when you look at who just contributed.
01:04:30Right, Cheryl?
01:04:31Yeah.
01:04:32Point per game player in this series against his foe here, James.
01:04:35I mean, he has a state circled on his calendar,
01:04:37but he always brings his best against the best.
01:04:41Inching closer to the midway mark of this period.
01:04:45The Ducks have taken a 1-0 lead.
01:04:48Anaheim's won the draw.
01:04:53Moussa quickly over to Eichel.
01:04:56Oh!
01:04:57Oh!
01:04:58He's here with the save!
01:04:59Taken around the wall by Eichel.
01:05:01Can't get a hold of that pass.
01:05:03And he's on the blue line.
01:05:06Oh, that has some heat on it.
01:05:08He makes the save.
01:05:10Quick spin light in the lamp with this point streak.
01:05:12Playing so confident.
01:05:13He knows where he is on the ice.
01:05:15And it just seems that every time it makes its way towards the net,
01:05:17the puck's going in.
01:05:19Here in the back half of this period,
01:05:21Anaheim's ahead, 1-0.
01:05:24Great save with a good tender on that one.
01:05:27This is a really nice save, James.
01:05:29I mean, the shooter's in the middle of the ice.
01:05:30He's in the squad area.
01:05:31He's got to get to the top of the crease,
01:05:33square to the puck to be able to make that save.
01:05:35Great job.
01:05:36Setters glide into the dot as a face-off,
01:05:38ready to resume play.
01:05:43Anaheim's got possession here in the Royal.
01:05:45Tenacious.
01:05:46Dono for the puck along the wall.
01:05:48Carver shifts on the attack to the offensive zone.
01:05:52And a great seed.
01:05:53Looking to make something happen to the offensive zone.
01:05:57Puts it on net.
01:05:58Big save.
01:05:59Goaltender covers up and will get a face-off.
01:06:03Anaheim's got it and they're on the attack.
01:06:17All right, we've played now 40 minutes in this one and still a critical 20 minutes still needs to be played.
01:06:34Go stretch your legs, grab that final snack because the third period is just around the corner.
01:06:39Fans are buzzing, teams are gliding into position here for the start of the third.
01:06:46Here we go, period number three.
01:06:48It's winner go-end, John, now.
01:06:50Across the line around the attack.
01:06:52Chosseled off the puck.
01:06:54Picked up along the wall by Eichler.
01:06:58Anaheim's got the puck.
01:07:01Through the open ice, they're picking up steam.
01:07:04Vegas looks to go on the attack.
01:07:07Dumps it in.
01:07:09Slides the puck over.
01:07:11Carries moving it ahead.
01:07:13Slides the puck too quick.
01:07:16Passes it over.
01:07:18Vegas has it.
01:07:20Eichl's taking it from his own end.
01:07:23Anaheim's in transition.
01:07:27And that snapped away in the defensive end by Theodore.
01:07:33Vegas plays it up ahead.
01:07:36Takes a shot.
01:07:39Comes up with a stop.
01:07:41And that's hooked away by Barbashev.
01:07:43Angles it over to quick.
01:07:46Carries the puck through the neutral zone.
01:07:48Here's a chance.
01:07:52Stopped by the goaltender.
01:07:54Quick's been on it all night.
01:08:00And as you can see here, the grade-A chances just piled up.
01:08:03And finally he broke through here, James.
01:08:05He didn't get frustrated.
01:08:06But I love about it as he continued to get to the right spots.
01:08:09If you're getting good looks at some point, it's eventually going to go in.
01:08:17Passes over to Kolsar.
01:08:19Gaining momentum up along the side.
01:08:22Shot.
01:08:23And he had the answer on that one.
01:08:25And there's another stop.
01:08:27Knocks the puck loose after a silent hat.
01:08:33Gibson's going to pounce on the puck to get a whistle here.
01:08:36And there's a strategy to this one.
01:08:38It is and it's a good strategy.
01:08:40Listen, they've been outplayed.
01:08:41And he's been phenomenal in the net.
01:08:43And every play matters.
01:08:44And the right one right now is to pounce on this puck, get the whistle, and reset the tone in your own zone.
01:08:50Quick feed to Ajo.
01:08:52The Ducks are playing from the defensive zone.
01:08:55Here they come with a rush.
01:08:57Pokes it away in his own end.
01:08:59Good move to the middle.
01:09:01Oh, he comes up with a stop.
01:09:03Too many bodies in the way.
01:09:05Making three in a row.
01:09:07This is an incredible athletic save, but this is all instinct.
01:09:10There's no time to put yourself to position.
01:09:13You just react.
01:09:14And if you get there, you get there.
01:09:15What a great job.
01:09:16Here's a shot.
01:09:19Oh, it almost pulled up and saves it.
01:09:22Anaheim's got it in the wrong zone.
01:09:25Slides it diagonally to Terry.
01:09:27Vegas gains a hold of it.
01:09:30Takes the pass.
01:09:32Shot.
01:09:34Oh, it was a business and he stopped it.
01:09:36Now open to Quick.
01:09:38Along the half wall with the puck.
01:09:42From the backhand in front.
01:09:44Denies him.
01:09:45I really like the save, James, because he challenges the shooter
01:09:48who's all alone in the slot area.
01:09:50He turns aside a real dangerous opportunity.
01:09:53He's across.
01:09:55Coming to side with the glove.
01:09:57He's down his rhythm here as we look at that left save.
01:10:03I mean, he has to be so on the mark right now.
01:10:07Too positioned to be able to make it.
01:10:09His read is perfect.
01:10:10He's tracking well.
01:10:11We have to be quick and athletic to make that one.
01:10:13There's the heart and it's time to breathe.
01:10:19First shot of the season.
01:10:21That's always got to be a nice feeling.
01:10:23Well, you can just see how all of his teammates are celebrating
01:10:26within the fist bumps.
01:10:27Knowing that he put up that crescent.
01:10:29Certainly a confidence booster.
01:10:30And that's what you work for.
01:10:31That's what you care and care for.
01:10:32And he gave his team a chance to win with that.
01:10:34And, of course, we're getting loud once again to salute their warriors
01:10:38here, Cheryl.
01:10:39Oh, yeah.
01:10:40This is a lot of fun.
01:10:41I mean, this is the connection that you see between the fan base
01:10:43and their team.
01:10:44And it's a tradition, right?
01:10:45You come out on the ice and you want to salute them and say thank
01:10:48you for providing energy throughout the game.
