Much has been made about the San Jose Sharks heading into the 2025-26 season. They're young, hungry, and want to bring a Stanley Cup to the Bay Area. All of this sounds good until you realize that the Vegas Golden Knights faced them on Thursday.
Mind you, this is the same Golden Knights team that lost a heart-breaker to the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday. Losing in a shootout, 6-5, would leave anybody in a foul mood. So what did Vegas do in response?
By the will of the Hockey Gods, they won in overtime, 4-3.
