Golden Knights record after the game
(4-2-0)
Kings record after the game
(2-3-0)
The Kings took a lot of penalties in the game as they lost 5-1 to Vegas. The Kings were playing on their heels from the start of the game and let up an early goal which lead to Vegas getting mos of the momentum throughout the game. Here’s what Kings head coach Todd McLellan had to say about the team taking too many penalties and the penalty kill as a whole “ There’s work to be done. It was obviously a horrendous night for that unit. It needs work. Individuals need work. The system needs work. When I look at the penalty kill, though, there are some factors. There’s faceoffs and there’s the opportunities to clear pucks. Tonight, we got hemmed in our end. We couldn’t get fresh people on the ice and they’re obviously an elite power play right now. They took advantage of fatigue and they picked us apart, and eventually it was in our net. We never got relief on our penalty kill, ever. Faceoffs we did win, which was only, I think, two of them”.
