The Golden Knights returned home from Western Canada for a Thanksgiving eve matchup against the Ottawa Senators. Former Senator Mark Stone gave his current team a 1-0 advantage with a 1st period power play goal. Ottawa scored on the PP as well locking in a 1-1 tie after the opening twenty minutes.
This season’s most surprising player William Carrier weaved in and out through Ottawa’s defense to regain the lead for Vegas late in the middle frame. Carrier’s 7th goal of the season made it 2-1 Vegas after two periods.
William Karlsson didn’t wait long in the final period to add more offense. Karlsson roofed a backhanded shot past the Senators goalie, taking a two goal edge. In the final minutes, Jack Eichel scored a long-distance empty netter to seal Vegas’ victory.
The Golden Knights record improves to (16-4-1) defeating the senators 4-1. Vegas will next face Seattle on Friday evening from The Fortress. Puck drop against the Kraken is scheduled for 5P PT. (Recap by Jason)
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Carrier-esque goal by Karlsson!!! Spinorama like Denis Savard!!! Yikes!! 3-1 Knights

LT an insane 39/40!
ARI 4-0 @ CAR
VAN 4-3 @ COL
ANA 3-2 vs. NYR
My goodness. No such thing as a gimme in this league.
Devils and Bruins lose.
Get ready for Friday. Kraken holds on vs. Sharks 8-5 after Sharks tie it 4-4.

With Carrier scoring three goals with Roy out we have to like Howden as 4C. Ten gets you one we see Roy as 3C when he comes back. Might just be what the 3rd needs.
I like to think Cassidy shrewdly views Carrier and Howden as diamonds in the rough. Tall, big and fast that need work on finishing. Definitely addressable.
Pistol Pete
That Karlsson goal was unreal. I had been hoping for the Cassidy Effect on his offensive output.
Eichel made up for some missed EN’s on that one. Backhand from the redline.
Pistol Pete
The two most controversial acquisitions are the points leaders after the first 21 games.
Eichel (26 pts +16)
Pietrangelo (21 pts +5)

Messed playing over 1000 straight games for LVGK is incredible! I never even noticed him last year or the years before that in a LVGK uniform!

The REAL TS SAYS STFU, IMPOSTER! YOUR CAVE IS WAITING FOR YOU, CREEPY GUY!!
knights fan in minny
what the hell are you talking about fake ts you dumb shit
TS
Im just trying to.do the math but its hard to do – if Phil has played 1000 plus straight games for LVGK, and each season has about 80 games or so, he must be counting the preseason and practice scrimmages too!
knights fan in minny
hey fake ts math is hard to do when you’re a malt liquor drinking loser like you boy
TS
KFIM, this CLOWN actually trolls me PREEMPTIVELY!! I don’t have to post a thing, and he trolls me!!
I wonder if he has dreams about me, he seems to think of me often. What a PERV. CREEPY, LONELY CLOWN. I feel sorry for him.

Great effort all around ! Next two very winnable! Also, Revo traded by Ny to the Wild.

Next two very winnable – better not count your chickens before they hatch you’re setting yourself up to potentially be very disappointed. Seattle just beat Colorado at home so who knows. Vegas needs a few more guys like Carrier – that guy is nothing but energy.
Jailbird
Next two ARE very winnable there HD. Counting chickens would be if I said they were going to win both games. Not what I said pal !
hdbiker7851
Jailbird – whatever rocks your boat. Go back and read your post – your words not mine – Next two very winnable! I was simply pointing out the fact that may not be the case.
Jailbird
Hd, You just confirmed my point! Sometimes you don’t make sense. Guess you just feel compelled to write something?
Pistol Pete
Biker I think you meant Canucks just beat COL away (yesterday)—they have offensive firepower but trouble defending. And of course Kraken seems poised to take their first win against us on Friday. Not hopefully! But to your point, game at a time (Cassidy is right it’s a cliche lol), there are no gimmes in this league, Heck, Coyotes trounced Canes 4-0 last night in Raleigh.
hdbiker7851
PP your right Seattle player the sharks
knights fan in minny
big win logan being logan cool and calm what a lazer backhand from wild bill that was awesome will carrier with a thing of beauty the captian is on a roll

Every game is an opportunity. But, let’s be real. Ottawa is in the basement 6-12-1 with a -10. They are struggling for identity with 1 above average line.
Better competition and an opportunity to further solidify team chemistry is coming up this Friday & Saturday.
Carrier is advancing his game and has earned some PP time.
Richard Santomauro
Everyone mocked LT as a legit net minder 1A coming into this season…..
except me…..
knights fan in minny
i never mocked him either i liked his game last year he has a cool and calm way about him
TS
Richard, and ME, TOO!!

Not everyone.

Just keep piling up the wins. Next 5 games if were rolling are very beatable. Love to be at 40 points by the end of November. We’ll have our chance soon enough at the east coast teams and then we’ll have a better feel for our team. So far so good you can pick some little short comings but hard to argue about the bottom line.
THE hockey GOD
happy TG to VGKs, all fans, and everyone. A true AMerican holiday, with traditions and family values. God Bless.
