The Vegas Golden Knights are closer than they've ever been.
Coach Bruce Cassidy's team won 7-2 and took a 2-0 lead in its Stanley Cup Final series with the Florida Panthers on Monday night at T-Mobile Arena, getting a game beyond where Gerard Gallant's squad had in 2018 when it lost in five to the Washington Capitals.
The series scene shifts to south Florida on Thursday and Saturday where the Panthers will host Games 3 and 4 at FLA Live Arena in Sunrise. If necessary, the series will return to Vegas for game five on Tuesday, June 13.
