REGULAR SEASON #7: Philadelphia Flyers at Vegas Golden Knights

The Vegas Golden Knights look to become the 16th team in NHL history to start the season 7-0-0 as they host the Philadelphia Flyers at T-Mobile Arena on Tuesday.

The Golden Knights are off to the best start in franchise history and now own the best start to a season for a defending Stanley Cup champion. 

They host the Flyers who are 3-1-1 and sit in first place atop of the Metropolitan Division.

"They're pretty straightforward and their approach that they're going to try to win the slot battle," Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said. "They're not going to give you a lot off the rush because that's the easiest way to score goals. So they're gonna match pucks, play behind you. They tried to have a funnel mentality in terms of just get pucks to the net, get second chances. That's what I've seen so far."

Here are the projected starting lines:

Owen Tippett - Sean Couturier - Cam Atkinson

Travis Konecny - Scott Laughton - Tyson Foerster

Joel Farabee - Noah Cates - Bobby Brink

Nicolas Deslauriers - Ryan Poehling - Garnet Hathaway

Cam York - Travis Sanheim

Egor Zamula - Sean Walker

Emil Andrae - Nick Seeler

Carter Hart

Samuel Ersson
