Vegas tries to bounce back after Saturday's 6-0 shutout to the Utah Hockey Club. The Knights edged the NHL standings-leading Winnipeg Jets 4-3 on the Friday night prior.
VGK went on the road and beat Connor McDavid's Oilers 4-2 in the two teams' lone matchup so far this season on November 4. Over the offseason, VGK star Jack Eichel told NHL media that he believes Edmondon is Vegas' biggest rival.
