Vegas came out and jumped all over the Capitals in the 1st period scoring three times and getting a ton of other scoring chances. A couple early penalty kills in the 2nd cemented the lead and the Golden Knights coasted to a relatively easy shutout victory. That concludes a 4-0-1 homestand against three of the best teams in the NHL. Vegas will head into the Christmas break as the #1 team in the Western Conference by point percentage.
Upcoming stories from the Vegas Golden Knights vs. Washington Capitals at T-Mobile Arena.

Hockey fans “WHAT A GREAT FIRST HALF” Do we see a STANLEY CUP before McFee’s prediction 5 Years. It may sooner than later. Keep up the good work. This team plays like the 1980’s version of my other favorite team the NEW YORK
ISLANDERS. This team is really hungry but fans be patient. Just enjoy your team fans .
