There’s one matchup the Vegas Golden Knights shouldn’t wish for in the postseason.

Per the NHL’s Return To Play Plan, the Vegas Golden Knights will be involved in the Stanley Cup Playoffs as long as hockey can return at some point this summer.

As it stands, the Golden Knights will receive a bye as the third-seed and will contest a three-game, in-conference round-robin tournament against the St. Louis Blues, the Colorado Avalanche and the Dallas Stars.
