LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — It was a "gold out" inside T-Mobile Arena as the Vegas Golden Knights hosted the Colorado Avalanche for a Sunday afternoon matchup.
The Knights were looking to keep momentum going after clinching a spot in the playoffs Friday night with a 7-2 win over the Minnesota Wild.
VGK did just that with a nailbiting turn around from an early game slump to take the victory in overtime.
That's why they traded for him folks 👀
