Post-Sim Wrap-Up: Flames go bust in Game 7

The entire game was tight-checking, with good scoring chances at a premium. Vegas got on the board first in the opening frame. The Golden Knights hemmed the Flames in their own zone and wore them down on the cycle, ending with a William Karlsson one-timer to give them a 1-0 edge.

Midway through the second Vegas got some much-needed insurance.
