Recap: The Golden Knights were hoping to build off Tuesday’s win with a victory over the top seeded Colorado Avalanche. Quickly into the opening twenty minutes Alex Holtz gave Vegas a 1-0 lead, scoring his first goal of the season.

Ivan Barbashev doubled Vegas’ lead :34 into the middle frame. The Avalanche began to heat up rattling off two straight goals, but Vegas returned the favor. First Ben Hutton regained the Golden Knights lead, and Brett Howden doubled their lead less than a minute later. After 40 minutes, Vegas held a 4-2 advantage.

Colorado quickly got within one in the final frame and tied it 4-4 minutes later. Late in the frame Colton Sissons regained VGK’s one goal lead. The Avalanche scored again to send the game into overtime. Eventually Colorado won the game in a shootout.

The Golden Knights record drops to 17-8-11 falling to the Colorado Avalanche 6-5 in SO. Next up, Vegas will host the Minnesota Wild on Monday night. Puck drop against the Wild is scheduled for 7 PM. (Recap by Jason)

Analysis: What a game for the Golden Knights. Despite being down three of their most important skaters and their starting goalie, they stuck to the gameplan they’ve used for a long time against the Avalanche and it worked like a charm… for the most part. They played with incredibly strong sticks and great gaps at the blue line which left the Avs struggling to enter the zone. Eventually, there were turnovers and VGK capitalized on just about every chance they got on goal. Unfortunately, there was a lot of really bad luck which is awfully difficult to overcome against Colorado. Incredibly impressive effort against a team that very well may end the season with the best record in the history of the NHL. (Analysis by Ken)

Ken’s Three VGK Stars

VGK lose it in shootout but have absolutely nothing to hang their heads about tonight. What an effort, what a game.

Honestly believe that's the best game VGK have played this season, considering the circumstances.

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) December 28, 2025

Make your own luck. VGK have been excellent this period and they've gotten the 2-goal lead right back.

Another rush chance, Howden wins to the front and tips it up over Wedgewood's shoulder. 4-2

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) December 28, 2025

My goodness. Another one off VGK and into the goal.

They've played an incredibly good 30 minutes and the game is now tied due to two horribly unlucky bounced.

2-2

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) December 28, 2025

Continue to be incredibly impressed with VGK's sticks tonight. They are crushing the Avs in every loose puck.

Recap: In the second of a two game road trip the Golden Knights headed north to frigid Edmonton. The Oilers came out flying scoring twice in the 1st period including a Connor McDavid wondergoal. The Golden Knights had three power play opportunities but couldn’t capitalize on any of them.

The Oilers continued the onslaught in the 2nd period scoring a couple more meaning Vegas found itself in a 4-goal hole for the second straight night. Tomas Hertl was able find the back of the net on the power play to cut the deficit to three. The 2nd period would end 4-1.

VGK came roaring back in the 3rd period starting with another power play goal, this time from Pavel Dorofeyev. Then, when Bruce Cassidy stuck Mitch Marner, Mark Stone, and Hertl together, they were all over the Oilers and Marner eventually stuck in Vegas’ 3rd goal. They looked dangerous all the way until the final horn but couldn’t find the equalizer.

The Golden Knights’ record drops to 16-8-10 falling to the Oilers 4-3 in Edmonton. Next up, the Golden Knights are coming home for the holidays. The first of a four game homestand against the Sharks on Tuesday. Puck drop is at 7 PM. (Recap by Ken)

Analysis: For the first half of the game it looked like the two-time defending Western Conference Champions were toying with a Golden Knights team missing two of its best players. EDM’s PP struck a few times, they were all over VGK at 5-on-5 and the Golden Knights appeared dead in the water. Then, the tide turned and the Golden Knights took over. Their execution turned up a ton and they got right back in it. They couldn’t find the game-tying goal but if the game lasted a few more minutes they probably would have, because they were buzzing.

It's amazing how much better VGK's execution has been in this period compared to the last two. Every pass is tape to tape.

Cue the Harlem Globetrotter music on that PP.

VGK could not have looked more lost.

3-0 EDM

Men against boys in the 1st period (aside from VGK's first PP).

Recap: The Golden Knights were looking to wrap up their road trip with a victory in Columbus over the Blue Jackets. Columbus jumped out first with a goal seven minutes into the opening frame. After twenty minutes the home team held a 1-0 edge.

Immediately in the middle frame, the Golden Knights were awarded a power play opportunity which Pavel Dorofeyev took advantage of. Dorofeyev tied the game, scoring his 13th goal of the season. The game was locked in a 1-1 tie after two periods of action.

Five minutes into the final period the Blue Jackets regained their one goal lead. The Golden Knights answered right back with a goal from defenseman Ben Hutton. Late in the period, Brayden McNabb snapped the tie and gave Vegas a 3-2 advantage. Vegas fought off a late 6-on-4 to complete their victory.

The Golden Knights record improves to 16-6-9 defeating the Blue Jackets 3-2 in Columbus. Next up, Vegas will travel home and prepare for their next game on Wednesday. Puck drop against the New Jersey Devils is scheduled for 7 PM. (Recap by Jason)

Analysis: The Golden Knights looked a lot like a team at the end of a road trip, essentially out of gas and trying to hang on. Somehow though, they battled their way through, without playing well for most of the game, and defeated a Columbus team that can’t seem to get out of its own way. The road trip ends with an incredible 4-0-1, but the play to get them there was no where near as impressive. (Analysis by Ken)

One disappointment from this game, Mark Stone's streak of recording a point in every game is unfortunately over.

His streak of VGK recording a point in every game he plays (except one) continues.

Recap: The Golden Knights were looking to start December off on the right foot with a home victory against the Chicago Blackhawks. Vegas struck first thirty seconds into the opening period. Ivan Barbashev was awarded his 9th goal of the season but Chicago immediately answered back. After twenty minutes of action the game was locked in a 1-1 tie.

Chicago snapped the 1-1 tie with an unassisted goal midway through the period. Vegas defenseman Ben Hutton evened the score 2-2 with his 3rd goal of the season.

Blackhawks star Connor Bedard scored on a brilliant individual move to regain his team’s advantage. Vegas heavily pressured Chicago in the final frame and it paid off. Braeden Bowman scored his fifth goal to even the score 3-3 and force overtime.

Eventually the game was decided by Vegas in a shootout where Pavel Dorofeyev and Shea Theodore scored while Carter Hart stopped three of four.

The Golden Knights record improves to 12-6-8 defeating the Blackhawks 4-3 in SO. Next up, Vegas will hit the road for the next five games beginning on Friday. Puck drop against the New Jersey Devils is scheduled for 4 PM. (Recap by Jason)

Analysis: This was not a particularly good game for the Golden Knights from a systems perspective. They allowed a heap of odd-man rushes, which led to Bedard’s snipe and a bundle of penalties. VGK’s offense just never really got sustained pressure and even when they did the Knight in the other goal was very good. But, they kept pushing down the stretch and found a way to get the game tied. In overtime, the Hawks were all over the Golden Knights, but Hart kept them in it with a few great stops. Theodore won it with his favorite move in shootout. (Analysis by Ken)

Shea Theodore with the old trusty move. He's been using it for 9 years and it still works.

VGK have broken their streak of 7 straight losses in OT/SO.

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) December 3, 2025

VGK may have found their answer to OT… Carter Hart. He's the only reason this game is still alive.

Let's see if he's the answer in shootout.

Recap: The Golden Knights hosted the Ottawa Senators for a pre-Thanksgiving matchup at T-Mobile Arena. Ottawa answered quickly into the game to take a 1-0 lead. Vegas pushed back and finally got on the scoreboard with minutes remaining in the period. With seconds left Ottawa regained their two-goal advantage.

Jack Eichel scored his 250th career NHL goal to get his team within one. Ottawa was awarded a late period power play opportunity which Vegas promptly killed off.

In his return from injury captain Mark Stone tied the game 3-3 with a crucial power play goal. After regulation the game needed an overtime and eventually a shootout to decide a winner.

The Golden Knights record drops to 10-5-8 falling to the Senators 4-3 in shootout. Next up, Vegas will welcome the Montreal Canadiens for an afternoon matchup on Black Friday. Puck drop against the Canadiens is scheduled for 1 PM.(Recap by Jason)

Analysis: VGK dug themselves a decent hole in the 1st but went to work the rest of the game to get themselves back in it. They completely shut down the Senators’ attack for the last 40 minutes and were able to get a cheap goal to tie it on the power play (after having many better chances on the previous ones). Overtime was better, shootout was not. (Analysis by Ken)

Recap: The Golden Knights began a three-game road trip in Utah to face the Mammoth. Vegas was awarded a cross-checking penalty but couldn’t convert their opportunity into a goal. After 20 minutes, the game was locked in a scoreless tie.

Vegas came out hot to start the middle frame. First, Jack Eichel opened the scoring 3:09 into the period, and Ben Hutton followed 19 seconds later. The Mammoth cut the Golden Knights’ lead in half but Eichel regained VGK’s two-goal advantage.

45 seconds into the final 20 minutes, Braeden Bowman scored his third career goal, giving his club a 4-1 lead.

The Golden Knights’ record improves to 10-4-6 defeating the Mammoth 4-1 in Utah. Next, up Vegas will take a short flight to Anaheim before returning back to Utah for another game with the Mammoth. Puck drop against the Ducks is scheduled for Saturday at 7 PM. (Recap by Jason)

Analysis:  It’s been a rarity this season, the Golden Knights used a dominant 2nd period to grab and hold of the game. Their details were excellent all night and the offense came to life in the middle frame. From there they basically leaned on the Mammoth and made them look like boys to VGK’s men. (Analysis by Ken)

When the Golden Knights defense is in sync, which it has been for the last 4 or 5 games now, it has a way of making teams think it's harder to get the puck to the net than it is. Utah is falling for it hard tonight.

I'll explain more in the Periscope after the game.

Jack Eichel is absolutely on fire right now.

What a pass to Bowman and he taps it home.

4-1 VGK and this one is turning into a butt kicking.

Monkey off the back.

Eichel may never get an easier scoring chance than that.

1-0 VGK

— SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) November 21, 2025

Fundamentally sound first 15 minutes here for VGK. Good gaps, strong sticks, great puck support.

It will eventually pay dividends if they can stick with it.

Recap: The Golden Knights welcomed in the first place Anaheim Ducks for a Pacific Division battle. Vegas took the early edge 5:47 into the opening twenty minutes. Late in the period Anaheim evened the score 1-1.

Midway through the middle frame the Ducks took a 2-1 advantage. Anaheim added to their lead late in the frame to take a two-goal lead into the second intermission.

Pavel Dorofeyev scored a quick power play goal to start off the final period. The Golden Knights continued to pressure the Ducks down the stretch and created several chances and rebounds. Defenseman Kaedan Korczak tied the game 3-3 with his second goal of the season. The game needed overtime to decide a winner. Eventually, the Ducks won the game late in OT.

The Golden Knights record drops to 7-3-4 falling to the Ducks 4-3 in overtime Next up, Vegas will host the two-time reigning champion Florida Panthers on Monday. Puck drop for a rematch of the 2023 Stanley Cup Finals is scheduled for 7 PM. (Recap by Jason)

Analysis: The middle frame was troublesome for the Golden Knights once again and it forced a tall hill to climb against a team that’s growing in confidence in the Anaheim Ducks. VGK turned the tide in the 3rd and looked like the team that has dominated this matchup for the better part of a decade. They were relentless and found a way all the way back to tie it. Unfortunately, another Theodore turnover cost them in overtime. (Analysis by Ken)
