Another empty netter

5-1 Utah
November 25, 2025 at 4:34 AM
Cassidy pulls the goalie for the extra attacker pretty early for his standards, but Utah scores into the empty net.

Hat trick for Cooley

4-1
November 25, 2025 at 4:28 AM
Logan Cooley makes it 3-1 Utah with his 2nd goal of the night.

Brutal luck for Lindbom. He stopped the breakaway shot, but the rebound went off Cooley’s skate and into the net.

Vegas has created a lot more here in the 2nd. This time Hertl draws a penalty right in front of the Utah net.

Ivan Barbashev gets Vegas on the board on a rebound from right in front of the net.

2-1

Guenther repays Cooley's setup from earlier.

This time he feeds Cooley for a backdoor tap in goal.

2-0 Utah
November 25, 2025 at 2:38 AM
That was a heck of a move by Logan Cooley, who then set up Dylan Guenther for a goal from right in the slot.

1-0 Utah
November 25, 2025 at 2:33 AM
That save by Karel Vejmelka to rob Bowman's backhand was absolutely insane.

Just got a piece with the blade of his skate.
November 25, 2025 at 2:31 AM
Carl Lindbom has been very good over the first 10 minutes of this game.

Utah leads 5-2 in shots, and has had the puck in Vegas' zone quite a bit, but Lindbom has stood tall.

Carl Lindbom and Karel Vejmelka lead their teams onto the ice for warm ups in Salt Lake City.

Braeden Bowman is the first player in Golden Knights franchise history with 3 goals in his first five career NHL games.
November 21, 2025 at 4:15 AM
Jack Eichel has been brilliant with the puck tonight.

That pass was ridiculous. All Bowman had to do was put his stick on the ice, for his third goal in 5 NHL games.

4-1 Vegas
November 21, 2025 at 4:10 AM
Jack Eichel dekes to the backhand and scores to make it 3-1.

Second goal of the night for Eichel. It was a nice stretch pass by Bowman to set it up, his first NHL assist.
November 21, 2025 at 3:45 AM
Schmidt beats Schmid

2-1
November 21, 2025 at 3:22 AM
Ben Hutton went 609 days in between goals, and now scores in back to back games.
November 21, 2025 at 3:12 AM
Jack Eichel ends his 9-game scoring drought with a rebound on the doorstep.

1-0 Vegas

Braeden Bowman has two goals in his first 4 NHL games, and has looked good all over the ice.

More importantly for him, Bruce Cassidy seems to love his game. He just heaped praise on his play on the boards, puck management, all the things you usually worry about with young players.

Final- Golden Knights 3, Rangers 2

It got a little dicey at the end, but Schmid made the saves and Vegas gets the win.
November 19, 2025 at 5:38 AM
Sullivan pulls the goalie for the extra attacker and the Rangers score on a deflection in front.

3-2 Vegas with 2:43 to play
