Year 2, Game 7: Special teams and goaltending lead the way as Vegas wins 4-1 over Buffalo
The Golden Knights finally looked like themselves, and it paid dividends in the team’s 4-1 victory over the Sabres. The Golden Knights entered play against the Buffalo Sabres still looking for their first stretch of back-to-back wins on the season. A far cry from the nearly flawless start to their 2017-18 season. Adding to the early season woes, as the team announced yesterday, they were without key free agent Paul Stastny, who could miss up to two months with a lower-body injury. Which is in addition to Deryk Engelland, who did not play in this one, and Alex Tuch, who is still...

GAME THREAD 6/82: Vegas Golden Knights at Philadelphia Flyers
Let’s try this again. The Vegas Golden Knights have fallen to 1-4-0 on the season after suffering a 4-2 loss to the Penguins in Pittsburgh Thursday night. The effects of injuries to Alex Tuch and Paul Stastny and the suspension of Nate Schmidt have reverberated around the Golden Knights’ performance so far this season, but today is a new day for Vegas to turn things around. It will be the second and final regular-season meeting with the Philadelphia Flyers (2-2-0), and Vegas would like to even up the score. The rematch between the Knights and Flyers comes less than 10 days after these...

Golden Knights recall forward Tomas Hyka from Chicago Wolves
Hyka will be available to play against the Penguins. In light of the injury to forward Paul Stastny and the subpar performance of Vegas’ third line, the Golden Knights have recalled forward Tomas Hyka from the Chicago Wolves. Hyka, 25, appeared in 10 games for the Golden Knights last season, registering one goal and three points. The former sixth-round pick of the Los Angeles Kings is coming off an excellent season with the Wolves in which he tallied 48 points (including 15 goals) in 50 games. He was having yet another strong start this season as well, logging three assists in Chicago’s...

Morning Flurries: Imagine Dragons ruined the NHL
Remember last year when the first-year expansion Vegas Golden Knights made the Stanley Cup Final and we all thought the world was over as we knew it? Good times, very good times. The Golden Knights somehow managed to get even more powerful over the summer. They lost forward James Neal — and will be without defender Nate Schmidt for a quarter of the season — but added Paul Stastny and Max Pacioretty, while keeping William Karlsson around for at least another year to see what he can do again. But since the team had Imagine Dragons come out and perform on the ice ahead of their ....

Paul Stastny out for Golden Knights’ next 3 games, possibly longer, per report
This isn’t great. The injury bug has stricken the Golden Knights again. According to a report from The Athletic’s Jesse Granger, forward Paul Stastny will be inactive for the Golden Knights’ next three outings with a lower-body injury.
