After last game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, there truly is nowhere to go but up for the Vegas Golden Knights.

The Vegas Golden Knights lead the Pacific Division, but their struggles against playoff teams and overtime inconsistencies raise real questions about their legitimacy as a Stanley Cup contender.

That’s the Golden Knights’ unified objective with all their Olympians back in the fold. They had eight players go to the Games, including forward Tomas Hertl (Team Czechia), defenseman Rasmus Andersson (Team Sweden) and goalie Akira Schmid (Team Switzerland).

Despite a much earlier game than local time, the Golden Knights might still be the fresher team heading into the game.
