KEYS TO THE GAME PRESENTED BY TOYOTA
Repeat Monday: Vegas played one of its strongest games of the season Monday night in Colorado. It's been five days since that win, but the Golden Knights will want to repeat that effort in Anaheim.
Solve Gibson: John Gibson had all the answers on Feb. 11 when he earned the shutout for the Ducks at T-Mobile Arena. The Golden Knights will have to find a way to beat him to prevent a second consecutive clean sheet against the Ducks.
