Nicolas Roy takes off Trent Frederic's head, earns a 5 min Major in OT
What was he thinking!?
UPDATE 2: Vegas Golden Knights forward Nicolas Roy has made the most boneheaded play of the post-season. With the two teams Sudden Death OT in Game 2 of their second round playoff match, Roy took a careless 5 minute cross-checking penalty.
Watch Roy nearly take Trent Frederic's head off as he attempt to bunt away a puck in the air:
Yeesh... that's the absolute worst time to be careless with your stick.
UPDATE: The Golden Knights have tied it! Alex Pietrangelo with the equalizer!

The Edmonton Oilers have gotten two quick goals from two depth players to give them the lead in the 2nd period of Game 2 against the Vegas Golden Knights this evening.
First, check out Walman getting the Oilers on the board to even the score 1-1:
Great shot, great goal. Great pass from Podkolzin too, who was just getting started.
Just a few minutes later Podkolzin buried an absolute beauty on the rush to give the Oil their first lead of the game:
And they weren't done there! Darnell Nurse followed it up with a BEAUTY to extend the Oilers' lead to two goals.
And just when it looked like the Oilers were full in the driver's seat, Vegas answers back. Golden Knights forward William Karlsson's beautiful tip makes it 3-2 for Edmonton.
