A wide open game led to a flurry of chances on both ends of the ice. Vegas scored first just 2:29 into the game as Tomas Hyka scored his first career goal. Then Vancouver strick for a pair before the Golden Knights came back to score four in a row and take the 5-2 lead into the second intermission. Vancouver added one more in the 3rd but the game was in hand the whole night, and night that will be remembered much more for the trade than the 41st win in franchise history.
