Blackhawks down to survival game against Knights

The Vegas Golden Knights can become the first team to advance out of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs when they take on the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 4 of their Western Conference series on Sunday afternoon in Edmonton.

Vegas took a 3-0 series lead with a 2-1 win on Saturday evening.

Marc-Andre Fleury made 26 saves in his first start of the series, giving Robin Lehner a chance to rest after winning the first two games.

"My plan all along was to play both guys in the back-to-back, and that's what we did," Vegas coach Peter DeBoer said.
