Just when all hope had been lost for the Vegas Golden Knights, who blew a 3 goal lead to Winnipeg, they came through with a MASSIVE win. This win puts Vegas up 2-1 in the quarterfinals series over Winnipeg.

Amadio Plays OT Hero

Michael Amadio probably earned himself some new fans in Vegas tonight, as he secured a double-overtime victory for the Knights early in the second OT period. An unlucky bounce for Winnipeg turned into a golden opportunity for Amadio, who didn't hesitate on his shot to win it.

You have to feel for the Jets, who played an incredibly hard fought game against the Knights. Some Winnipeg defensemen ended up playing nearly half of the game throughout just over 4 periods of hockey.

Vegas now holds a 2-1 series lead over Winnipeg, and the two teams will stay in the great white north as they prepare for a crucial game 4.
