Perhaps it was fitting that Elvis Knight was scheduled for Thursday's game, as the Vegas Golden Knights certainly made the Columbus Blue Jackets feel blue in a 5-3 regulation win at home. While what I assume was intentional scheduling didn't land as well as expected with Elvis Merzlikins riding the bench, Vegas won back-to-back games for the first time in a month, and got their first regulation win since December 23.
Perhaps the theme did get taken a bit too literally, as Vegas visited the Hart-break Hotel in the first period. However, besides that seemingly bad injury to Carter Hart, it was the sort of bounce-back performance the team truly needed.
