Golden Knights Fall 4-1 To Jets, Look To Bounce Back Vs Oilers At Home

Golden Knights Fall 4-1 To Jets, Look To Bounce Back Vs Oilers At Home

Golden Knights Stumble in Winnipeg, Fall 4–1 to Jets


The road trip didn’t go as planned for the Vegas Golden Knights, who dropped a 4–1 decision Tuesday night to the Winnipeg Jets in a game that was never really in grasp as the night wore on.


Jets Pull Away After Tight Start


Early on, Vegas was back to their problematic play with another slow start. The first period featured solid defensive structure and a handful of scoring chances, but Winnipeg’s physical play and forecheck slowly tilted the ice.


The Jets struck first and never really gave the Golden Knights a chance to settle into their rhythm. By the time the third period rolled around, Vegas found itself chasing the game already behind 3-1 before giving up an empty netter at the end.


Losses like this are frustrating, especially as the season tightens up and every point starts to carry extra weight in the NHL standings.


Next Up: Oilers Visit Vegas on Thursday


With only ten games left in their regular season the Golden Knights won’t have long to dwell on the loss. They return home Thursday night for a high profile matchup against the Edmonton Oilers at T-Mobile Arena.


A few keys heading into Thursday:

  • Establish offense early and control the pace

  • Limit high danger chances against a dangerous scoring lineup

  • Feed off the home crowd energy


Home ice has been a major advantage for the Golden Knights in the past but so far this season it has been almost even points scored at home vs on the road. This sets up a tough spot to reset and regain momentum in front of their crowd as there are only weeks left in the season.
