After winning the first two games of the series in Dallas to take a 2-0 series lead, the Knights dropped back-to-back home games and Game 5 in Dallas to trail the Stars 3-2 and face elimination. Vegas saved their season Friday night in Game 6 with a 2-0 shutout win over the Stars. The winner of tonight's series closer will face the Colorado Avalanche in Round 2.
Ahead of, and during, Game 7, Nick Walters talked with fans outside American Airlines Center about what they predicted, feared, and were excited about as the Knight's battled on for repeat glory. Watch below or read more here.
Coming off a 23-save shutout, Adin Hill draws the start in-net and the Knights will roll with the same lines tonight that the team did in Game 6. VGK hopes to do what they did in last year's Western Conference Final by knocking off the Stars.
Puck drops in Dallas at 6:30 local time, 4:30 Pacific, and you can watch the game's local broadcast on Vegas 34.
