LAS VEGAS — As the Florida Panthers made their eight-seeded run to the Stanley Cup Final, the three prime factors were Sergei Bobrovsky’s goaltending, Matthew Tkachuk’s dramatic scoring and healthy special-teams play. All three were missing in the desert again in Game 2 of the Final as Vegas routed the Panthers, 7-2, Monday night to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series. Bobrovsky was replaced in the second period, Vegas is feasting on power plays and, while Tkachuk did score Monday, it was in a 6-1 game with no celebration. Tkachuk’s presence was felt more by a resounding and legal check...

DENVER – Observations and other notes of interest from Sunday night’s 111-108 NBA Finals victory over the Denver Nuggets: – Say this about Gabe Vincent, he’s not afraid. – Oh, and he’s going to be paid. – There was a time when Vincent stood as the Heat placeholder at point guard. – Now he essentially is irreplaceable. – Basically picking up in this one with his 3-point shooting where Max Strus left off. – Not, not your traditional assists point guard. – But that is not the need with this team. – It’s the shooting. – Because it will take big shooting games for the Heat to conquer the Nuggets...

In Hong Kong, which was the last Chinese-controlled territory to hold commemorations, eight people, including activists and artists, were detained on the eve of the anniversary, underscoring the city’s shrinking room for freedom of expression. Police said late Sunday they arrested a woman for allegedly obstructing police...

LAS VEGAS — The Stanley Cup Final started with lasers and fireworks, decibel-deafening music and boom-boom sound effects, all in a technologically entertaining pre-game package off the Vegas Strip right down to Michael Buffer’s “Let’s get ready to rumble” throwback cheer.

And they did rumble, and tumble, all the way until the Vegas Golden Knights took over a tie game in the third period Saturday night for a 5-2 win in Game 1 of the best-of-seven series. It was physical, sometimes breathtakingly brutal, start to the Final as each team tried to mark its territory in...
