2024-25 SEASON SERIES
The Golden Knights posted a 3-0-0 record against the Sharks last season to improve to 27-2-5 all-time in regular season games against San Jose. Vegas skated to a 7-3 win against the Sharks on Oct. 26 at T-Mobile Arena in their first matchup of the 2024-25 season. The Golden Knights defeated the Sharks again on Dec. 27 at SAP Center in a 6-3 victory in which Vegas scored four unanswered goals in the third period. In their final meeting, the Golden Knights beat San Jose, 4-2, at SAP Center to complete the season series sweep. Mark Stone led the way with seven points (3G, 4A) in three games against the Sharks last season. Brett Howden (3G, 2A), Jack Eichel (2G, 3A) and Alex Pietrangelo (5A) each had five points against San Jose in 2024-25.

KEYS TO THE GAME
Dress Rehearsal: Friday's game is the final contest of the preseason. The Golden Knights will use it as a final opportunity to pressure-test their game ahead of Opening Knight next Wednesday.

Get Comfortable: Vegas has used all of Training Camp to shake off rust and try out new line combinations. As Head Coach Bruce Cassidy gets a better sense of what his lineup will look like next week, it's important that the players get comfortable on the ice with any combination Cassidy calls out.
