PlayerSay is serverside meaning you'd need to network data to the client to open a window, or you can tie the vgui window to a console command and run a console command when ! or / is used in chat

Chat commands example: [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26074909/tutoring/chat_commands/chat_commands.lua.html[/url]
That will turn all !xxx and /xxx written into chat turn into a console command: xxx whereby ! is output for all to see and / is silent.
If you want to see an example of networking data from the server to client in order to open vgui, take a look at this: [url]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26074909/tutoring/vgui/open_vgui_based_on_keypress.lua.html[/url]
That turns F1-F4 hooks ( which are serverside ) into something that networks data to the client so the client can open the vgui ( example 1 ). Example 2 shows how to use PlayerBindPress to keep everything serverside for those F1-F4 keys.
If you want to use chat to open your vgui, you can also use the clientside OnPlayerChat hook ( but you'll need to add one additional check to ensure the player typing the command is also the LocalPlayer( ) otherwise anyone can type the command and everyone will open the vgui window )
