    Brendan Brisson will make his NHL debut, while Chandler Stephenson will be a game-time decision.

    The Vegas Golden Knights continue their homestand by hosting the Nashville Predators for a Martin Luther King Day matinee at T-Mobile Arena.

    Brendan Brisson will be making his NHL debut tonight, while Chandler Stephenson will be a game-time decision for the Golden Knights.

    The Predators come into Vegas having won three straight road games and won back to back games.

    Filip Forsberg leads the Predators in points with 48 points. Juuse Saros is the expected starter in net with a .901 save percentage and 3.02 goals-against aveage.

    The Golden Knights are 9-5-1 all-time against the Predators.

    The biggest question for the Golden Knights will be the offense.

    Forward Michael Amadio said the key will be to stick with the game plan if they hope of breaking their offensive slump.

    “A big part is making sure your work ethics is there. Getting into the dirty areas and maybe finding a greasy goal, just to get you going,” he said. “We just need to trust in that everyone's gonna do their job and make sure that we're playing a full 60 and playing as a team.”
