LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The Vegas Golden Knights conclude their three-game homestand to host the Columbus Blue Jackets for the first time this season on Thursday at 7 p.m. at T-Mobile Arena.

Despite Vegas taking a 3-1 lead on Tuesday night, Dallas was able to fight back and eventually win 4-3 in overtime. Mark Stone mentioned how the team liked the beginning stretches of the game while realizing the priority of keeping the foot on the gas pedal.

To end this homestand strong, the Golden Knights need to keep up the momentum for the full sixty minutes.

The Golden Knights are meeting the Columbus Jackets for the first time this season. Head coach Bruce Cassidy talked about sticking to the basics and the same mentality of their game, which is needed to succeed in front of the home crowd.
