After eliminating the Vancouver Canucks on Friday, the Vegas Golden Knights will begin their Western Conference Final tonight against the Dallas Stars.
It will be a quick turnaround for the Vegas Golden Knights who played on Friday night will be back on the ice tonight. The Knights are coming off a tough 3-0 win in Game 7 where Robin Lehner once again shut the door and made 14 saves for his third shutout of the series. Meanwhile, the Dallas Stars are coming off a Game 7 of their own beating Colorado in overtime 5-4 as Joel Kviranta scored a hat trick in his NHL playoff debut.
This for sure will be a tough series for the Golden Knights as the Stars pose a lot of problems on both sides of the ice.
On the back end, the likes of Miro Heiskanen and John Klingberg will be tasked with shutting down the potent offense the Vegas Golden Knights have. The Stars will rely on the offense of Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn, and Alexander Radulov
The Vegas Golden Knights and Dallas Stars were scheduled to play three times this year but only managed to play twice with the third being canceled due to the pause, both teams had a win in each of their meetings.

We will find out later if any lineup changes are made but we do know Ryan Reaves will game one due to his one-game suspension for a hit to head on Tyler Motte in Game 7. He received a five-minute major and game misconduct on the play and will be dearly missed for tonight’s game.
