Hard work will lift the Knights

The Dec. 4 game between the Vegas Golden Knights and Washington Capitals was not about payback. When you lose in the Stanley Cup Final, the only possible redemption is to go out and win it in the near future, not in one game during the season, regardless of opponent.

The game was about where the Knights are now, playing against the league’s defending champion.

An excellent game plan by the coaches with bad goaltending from Washington’s Braden Holtby told us the Knights can compete with anyone. To move get into the playoffs and make noise will only happen with continued hard work, improved play by the six defensemen and some changes for the third line.
