Nobody associated with the Golden Knights is going to be upset after coming away with four points on a three-game road trip.
But there may have been just a bit of disappointment on Saturday night’s flight home about the missed opportunity to pick up even more on the final stop of the journey in Edmonton.

It doesn’t matter how much you’ve won, it’s always disappointing when you’re so close to winning another.
