#3 at Vegas Golden Knights Feb. 17

Ah yes Viva Las Vegas. The Washington Capitals head back to T-Mobile Arena, that magical place where they captured the Stanley Cup. The Vegas Golden Knights have another strong team and will be a legitimate Cup contender for the next several seasons to come.

Las Vegas is known for it’s gambling, entertainment, and other attractions. This game happens to fall on Presidents’ Day weekend at the conclusion of a three-game west coast trip that begins in Colorado and continues in Arizona before wrapping up in Vegas.
The Golden Knights swept the Capitals in their two-game series in 2017-18 before the Washington went on to defeat them in the Stanley Cup Final in five games. Vegas took the Game 1 opener on their home ice before the Capitals responded with a huge Game 2 victory to even the series thanks in large part to a game-winning goal from Brooks Orpik and a series momentum shifting save from Braden Holtby.
Eight days later they were back in the desert for Game 5, a back and fourth thriller that saw the Capitals rally from a 3-2 third period deficit to win their first Stanley Cup.
June 7, 2018 will forever be a special day in the hearts of Capitals fans everywhere.
Last season the two teams split, each winning on their home ice. The game in Vegas was a memorable one for Tom Wilson and Ryan Reaves in particular so keep an eye on those two.
