The Good, The Bad, The Ugly: 3 Takeaways from Golden Knights Game 4 Loss
The Vegas Golden Knights never had the upper hand over the Anaheim Ducks in Game 4— the Ducks recorded more shots on goal, threw more hits, and won the special teams battle. This was also the case in Game 1 , but the Golden Knights found a way to win that one. They didn’t get so lucky on Sunday.
The Ducks capitalized on almost every scoring chance and survived a late push to secure a 4-3 win . The series is tied 2-2. Game 5 is scheduled for 6:50 p.
m. PST on Tuesday at T-Mobile Arena. 1.
Off the Schneid Tomáš Hertl, who was second on the team in goals last season, entered tonight on an all-time goalless streak. The last time he scored a goal was on March 4th, 29 games ago. If there’s one very shiny silver lining that Golden Knights fans should look at following this loss, it’s that it finally happened: Hertl scored a goal.
The monkey is officially off his back. “With goal scorers, an empty netter, a 6-on-5, it doesn’t matter [as long as] the puck goes in the net. Hopefully, it just releases him a little bit,” said Golden Knights head coach John Tortorella postgame.
