Our mood in Las Vegas is buzzing, but it's a calm buzz. You know that feeling before a big hand in poker, when you got the cards, but you don't wanna show it? That's us. We're sitting pretty atop the Pacific Division, fresh off a win, and the Colorado Avalanche are coming to town. Folks at the coffee shop off Charleston, even the early risers at my usual spot in the Arts District, they're not just talking about the game, they're talking about the *playoffs*. The vibe is less "are we gonna make it?" and more "how far are we going?"

The big talk around the city, from the Bellagio fountains to the neighborhood parks out in Summerlin, is about our recent streak. Seven wins in our last ten? That's a comp, baby. That's a house edge we've built up. We've got a shot at 100 points this season, which, for a team that only started in 2017, feels like we're still proving ourselves. There's a real sense of quiet confidence, like we’re ready to go all in, but we're keeping our poker face on for now.
