The Golden Knights won’t have to wait long for a shot at revenge against the rival San Jose Sharks.
After a controversial ending to Game 7 of their bitter Western Conference playoff series, Vegas will open the 2019-20 season at T-Mobile Arena against the Sharks on Oct. 2.
The NHL released each team’s season-opening game on Friday. Full schedules are expected to be unveiled on Tuesday.
It will mark the second consecutive season the Knights opened at home after dropping a 5-2 decision to Philadelphia to begin the 2018-19 slate.
The Knights and Sharks have met 21 times over the last two seasons, by far the most games the Knights have played against any opponent in their brief history.
