The first-round matchup between the Golden Knights and Wild has been electric with 26 total goals through four games, two road upsets and a thrilling Vegas win in overtime of Game 4 to knot the series at 2-2. As Russell Crowe once bellowed in Gladiator, "Are you not entertained!?"
Needless to say, fans of both clubs have already gotten their money's worth. But the last three games of the series might be even better. Sportsbooks give Vegas the edge to win the series, but the first four games have taught us that anything can happen. One thing's for sure: Game 5 will be must-see TV for sports fans.
Can Kirill Kaprizov and Matt Boldy lead Minnesota to another upset on enemy ice? Or, will Tomáš Hertl, Noah Hanifin and the Golden Knights take care of business and move out to a pivotal 3-2 series lead?
