If the NHL was smart, which it's not, it would have an annual "Original Six" day where only those teams would play. Rangers-Bruins, Leafs-Habs, Hawks-Wings. that's it. Everyone else gets a day off. All games on national TV in US and Canada. A history lesson for this generation.

A girls hockey game this morning at CNA. A year ago only a few girls were even playing in Nevada. Now we have entire teams of young ladies thanks to the existence of the Golden Knights. Awesome to see growth of all youth hockey in SoNV.

I don't know if Deryk Engelland has any interest in coaching. But if he decides to retire as a player, having him as a Silver Knights assistant would be a good way for the VGK organization to take care of him. He'd be good working with the young guys as was the case in the bubble

It's easy to say Vegas beat a bunch of lousy teams during the 9-game win streak. But what would everyone be saying if they lost to San Jose and/or Anaheim? They should get credit for not playing down to their opponent's level.

Fleury was able to use his years of experience to forget about the Saad goal at the end of the first. He kept the Knights in it the rest of the way and came up big early in OT until Stone could win it. A clutch performance by No. 29.

Stone is expected to be in Las Vegas this evening and be at the morning skate. Whether he plays vs. DAL is Gallant's call. But I would expect him to be in the lineup barring anything unforeseen. Who he plays with? Ah, the guessing has already begun.

Robin Lehner made a one-goal lead stand up and the Golden Knights have arguably their best win of the year, 1-0 in DC over Ovi and the Caps. That 5 on 3 kill with Lehner leading it was so huge, especially given who had the two- man advantage.
