US EditionHow the Golden Knights are preparing for challenges against Oilers in Round 2 of the playoffs
- The Vegas Golden Knights will host the Edmonton Oilers on May 6, 2025, to begin the Western Conference second-round playoff series at T-Mobile Arena.
- This matchup follows Edmonton’s comeback from a 0-2 deficit to eliminate the Los Angeles Kings in six games, while Vegas swept the Minnesota Wild in six games after splitting the regular season 2-2.
- Edmonton reintegrated seven injured skaters like McDavid, Draisaitl and Kane, whose return allows Coach Knoblauch to pair McDavid and Draisaitl together, enhancing their high-powered offense that averages nearly five goals per game.
- Knoblauch expressed confidence in his goaltenders, noting that Calvin Pickard, who replaced Stuart Skinner and won four straight games, is likely to start against Vegas, while stressing the challenge posed by Vegas’ different playing style and systems.
- The series outcome could hinge on how Vegas limits Edmonton's offense and whether Edmonton’s depth and returning players sustain their momentum to advance further in the playoffs.
