People will look at the last matchup between the Vegas Golden Knights and the New Jersey Devils and say that's where the Golden Knights' turnaround happened. Defeating New Jersey, 3-0, in the Garden State is certainly a statement to make. They have numerous talented stars and made the Stanley Cup playoffs last season.
But the Golden Knights didn't do it alone. They had a stellar power play that scored two key goals for the shutout victory. They also had an awesome penalty kill that staved off two big penalties. The exits were fluid and the sticks were a-flowing, putting Vegas on the fast track to a successful road trip.
