Recap: The Golden Knights took the first lead of the game on a nice shot by Mark Stone. The winger gave his team an important early lead by scoring his 11th goal of the season. Malcolm Subban shutout the Predators in the 1st period stopping all twelve shots.
Reilly Smith would give Vegas a 2-0 edge with his 11th goal of the season. Unfortunately. Nashville would respond less than a minute later to cut the lead in half. The Predators would add another 2nd period goal to tie the game 2-2.
Matt Duchene broke the tie 1:23 into the 3rd period giving the home team a 3-2 lead. Vegas tried to get back in the game, even having a late power play. However, Max Pacioretty scored an exciting last second game tying goal. The Golden Knights forced an overtime period. Vegas would go on to win 4-3 in OT on a game winner by Paul Stastny.
Vegas’ record improves to (12-11-4) and remain in the wild card hunt. The Golden Knights get back to work on Friday afternoon against the Arizona Coyotes. Puck drop is scheduled for 3PM.
Happy Thanksgiving from SinBin! (Recap by Jason)
Analysis: The Golden Knights played a very good 1st period taking care of the puck and creating plenty of chances. But, things fell apart in the 2nd as they forgot how to defend against an activated defenseman. However, a magical moment from Pacioretty and then a fluky 2-on-0 in OT sent Vegas into the holiday on a high. (Analysis by Ken)
