      KEYS TO THE GAME
      Start Ahead: The Golden Knights have not led in the series since Game 1 of the postseason on April 20. Head Coach Bruce Cassidy said he would like to see the team jump ahead early because he stated the team cannot chase the game every night.

      All Eyes on Four: Following the team’s Game 3 loss on Thursday, William Karlsson stated that all the team can do is focus on the next game. Mark Stone followed practice up on Friday by stating that it is never a bad thing to go through adversity. Adversity will allow the Golden Knights to play hard to get what they want, which is a Game 4 win to even the series.
