LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The Vegas Golden Knights and Montreal Canadiens are back in Las Vegas for tonight's game at T-Mobile Arena.
The series is currently tied at 2-2. The Knights won in overtime during Game 4 on Sunday night at Bell Centre in Montreal.

Nick Holden responded to a reporter's question earlier today about feeling the pressure by saying that they are not feeling the pressure and are focusing on playing their style of hockey which is fast-paced.
