Stanley Cup Finals Game 2: Projected Lineups & Game Notes

Stanley Cup Finals Game 2: Projected Lineups & Game Notes

If Game 1 was any indication, we are going to be in for an unbelievable series. 

The game opened with a sword fight at centre ice won by the Vegas Golden Knights and ended with another Vegas Golden Knights victory. The game was fast-paced with both offence and physicality—the kind of game you dream of seeing. 

Neither goalie was particularly sharp, but they both faced a barrage of high-quality chances—16 for the Capitals and 15 for the Golden Knights to be exact. 

Both teams are expected to go with the same lineups as Game 1 and fans can only hope for a repeat performance from both squads.
