The Golden Knights iced the puck directly off the opening face-off, but that was the end of the bad news for them on the night. Alex Tuch scored his first goal in his last seven games. The Cody Eakin struck twice, once shorthanded, and then Tuch added his second of the night in the 2nd as well. Vegas coasted to the finish line in the 3rd.

One more team to “eliminate” tonight on the tracker.
And with a win Saturday they can get another, maybe 2 with some help from Boston.

I’m a numbers guy, but Wait until playoff elimination becomes division championship clinching. Even more people will be watching the countdown.
