Pavel Dorofeyev is making a case for hero status in Vegas. The young Russian winger scored twice, including the overtime winner at four ten of the extra frame, lifting the Golden Knights past Anaheim three to two. Vegas now holds a three to two series lead and is one win away from the Western Conference Final.
Meanwhile in Minnesota, Anthony Edwards is not flinching. The Timberwolves dropped Game Five to San Antonio and are now staring down elimination, but Edwards told reporters nobody in that locker room is too worried. De'Aaron Fox and the Spurs head to Minneapolis for Game Six knowing one more win sends them through, and the pressure on both sides of this series is absolutely real.
And staying in the playoff picture, Liverpool's ownership group FSG finds itself in an uncomfortable position across the Atlantic. Fan dissent toward head coach Arne Slot is growing louder, and the Fenway Sports Group now faces a genuine decision on whether to stand firm or make a move before the situation deteriorates further.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
