With only one game left before the Christmas break, the Vegas Golden Knights have done the job on their five-game homestand. The team has gone 3-0-1 thus far and have beaten the likes of the young Florida Panthers, the defending champion Pittsburgh Penguins and the league-leading Tampa Bay Lightning. The Knights only loss came against the Carolina Hurricanes in the shootout.
Tonight, the Golden Knights played a Washington Capitals team with a lot of skill and are excellent in the transition game. Washington has won 11 out of their last 14 games. However, the Capitals came off a tough overtime loss to Arizona last night.
