Game of the night

Vegas Golden Knights at Winnipeg Jets

Patrik Laine hasn't forgotten how the Western Conference Final turned out. After the Winnipeg Jets topped the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 1, 4-2, the NHL's newest expansion team didn't lose again in the series en route to a place in the Stanley Cup Final.

The two points will be huge for either team as the Jets, who have played the fewest games (45) among the top three teams in the Central Division, look to extend their division lead, and the Golden Knights try to remain red-hot and chip away at the Calgary Flames ' lead in the Pacific Division.
