VGK downs Kraken 2-1; needs one regulation win to clinch the division

VGK needs just one regulation win over the final three games of the season to lock down the Pacific Division after beating Seattle at the Fortress Thursday night 2-1. The Golden Knights led 2-0 on Ivan Barbeshev and William Karlsson goals. The Kraken scratched and clawed their way back into the game on a Jared McCann goal. Seattle had a major push late in the game and both Noah Hanifin and Brayden McNabb had to stop pucks from going into the net in the crease. Saturday Jonathan Marchessault returns to Las Vegas for the first time. His Predators have had one of their worst seasons in franchise history. Nashville is just playing out the string, but could want to win at the Fortress for Misfit Marchessault. We also have our WTF feature. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
