After missing three months of the season following back surgery, Golden Knights captain Mark Stone has been targeted by the Winnipeg Jets but is holding his own.
When a team wins Game 4 to take a 3-1 advantage, it has gone on to win the series nearly 90 percent of the time. Those are known as great odds for the Golden Knights.
After blowing a three-goal third-period lead, the Golden Knights found their game and defeated the Winnipeg Jets in double overtime in Game 3 of their Stanley Cup series.
The Golden Knights found their game after the first period and defeated the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday to even the best-of-seven Stanley Cup playoff series 1-1.
The Golden Knights weren’t good at much of anything in a loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday. But don’t expect this veteran team to panic facing a 1-0 deficit.
The Knights were far too passive and had poor puck management throughout a 5-1 loss to open the best-of-seven series against the Winnipeg Jets.
The Golden Knights turned to their leadership group when another injury-riddled season threatened to derail their goal of returning to the playoffs and winning a Stanley Cup.
Winnipeg fans may not like it, but the Knights are one of several teams who have taken advantage of a loophole to add a star player for the playoffs.
