Morning Skate Report: December 9, 2018

The Vegas Golden Knights look to end the weekend with a win as they host the Dallas Stars at 6 p.m. Sunday at T-Mobile Arena.
NOTES
Sunday's game is the second of a weekend back-to-back for the Golden Knights.
The Golden Knights are hosting a toy drive on Toshiba Plaza. Fans are encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped toy to benefit the CASA Foundation.
Vegas has a record of 9-3-1 on home ice this season.
LAST TIME OUT
The Golden Knights fell victim to the hard-hitting play of the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday and fell 5-1. Oscar Lindberg scored his first goal of the season for Vegas to open the scoring, but five unanswered goals from the Kings gave the home team a win.

OPPOSITION UPDATE
The Stars have hovered in the Wild Card portion of the standings for the majority of this season. They have 35 points this season with a 16-10-3 record.
The top line of Tyler Seguin (26 points), Jamie Benn (24 points) and Alexander Radulov (22 points) has been the offensive nucleus for the Stars this season. Rookie defenseman Miro Heiskanen has been impressive on the Dallas blueline this season with five goals and eight assists in 29 games.
A VEGAS VICTORY WOULD...
Be the 68th victory in franchise history
Give Vegas five consecutive home wins
KEYS TO THE GAME
Know Who's On The Ice:Dallas' lineup is strong up and down, but their top line of Benn, Seguin and Radulov can be lethal when left alone.
Team Speed: The Golden Knights succeed when every player is moving the puck quickly and finding open ice. They strayed from that identity Saturday and they'll need to return to it to win Sunday.
