Head Coach John Tortorella emphasized that the line's impact goes beyond the scoresheet and said that they can compete with any opposition. To keep this series in their control, the Golden Knights need consistent contributions and attention to detail from everyone throughout the lineup.
Finish Your Checks: The Golden Knights set the tone physically in Sunday's contest, nearly doubling Utah's 30 hits with 51 total in the win. Defenseman Brayden McNabb highlighted the importance of being a physical team in the postseason and explained that the Golden Knights have the ability to adapt to any style of play. This physical edge will be key to building momentum and wearing down the Mammoth over the course of the series.
