The Vegas Golden Knights look to build off of their big win against the Edmonton Oilers as they head to the desert to take on the Arizona Coyotes.
The Golden Knights were able to put an end to the Oilers' 16-game win streak in their return from the all-star break and now take on a Coyotes team that has lost three in a row. Adin Hill was once again stellar making 30 saves and 31 shots.
The Coyotes are returning from a road trip where they lost to the Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning and the Carolina Hurricanes.
This is the second of three games the two teams will play this year. The Coyotes were victorious in the first meeting beating the Golden Knights 2-0 back in November. The game was scoreless into the third period before Clayton Keller finally found the back of the net.
Connor Ingram is the starter for the Coyotes. He posted a shutout in his last game against the Golden Knights.
Hill is the projected starter for tonight's game. Hill played 49 games for the Coyotes to start his career.
