The Kings figure to get the Golden Knights ''A'' game tonight and the situation isn't ideal for them.
Las Vegas suffered its first loss of the season blowing a 2-0 lead at home against the Blackhawks on a rare Friday afternoon game. That defeat stopped the Golden Knights' seven-game win streak to open the season.
The Kings were in Tempe, Ariz. last night where they quickly fell behind the Coyotes, 4-1. Much to their credit, the Kings rallied for an improbable, 5-4, victory scoring three goals in the final period.
That took a lot of effort and grit from the Kings, who had to fly back home in the wee hours of the morning. So Vegas will be the more rested team. The Golden Knights are the far superior defensive team and they will have had more rest. The Kings rank 25th defensively. The Golden Nuggets give up the second-fewest goals per game.
