GOLDEN KNIGHTS TRADE DAVID SCHLEMKO (D) TO MONTREAL FOR 2019 5TH ROUND PICK

Such a better overall game tonight from the Golden Knights. They got a great game from Fleury, but they made life much more difficult on the Wild in all three zones tonight.

And the Capitals were ready to waive him...

Chandler Stephenson has been setting guys up with incredible chances all night. Finally, this time Mark Stone buries it. Opportunistic rush, VGK took advantage of it and may have just slammed the door shut.

3-1 VGK

VGK's PK has been elite this season. The goalie has had a huge hand in that, especially tonight.

Glass having an excellent period on the defensive side of the puck. Borrowing Mark Stone's patented stick on the ice move in the neutral zone was sweet.
