There have only been two games played in this Vegas Golden Knights and Minnesota Wild best-of-seven series, but it looks like this series will be electric, physical, and a must-watch. Kirill Kaprisov and Matt Boldy are the leading goal scorers for the Wild, while Brett Howden and Tomas Hertl are the Knights’ leading scorers. While there are leading goal scorers for the Knights, two key players have not generated a single point.
Vegas Golden Knights vs. Minnesota Wild Details
- Fixture: Vegas Golden Knights vs. Minnesota Wild, Round 1 Game 3
- Date: April 24th, 2025
- Time: 6:00 PM PST
Mark Stone (Vegas) will score, +335
On STN SportsBook, Vegas Golden Knights’ captain Mark Stone is a high odd because he has not generated a single point in the best-of-seven series, although it’ll only be game 3 tomorrow night. If the Golden Knights are looking to advance in the playoffs, the captain has to motivate his team by being able to get a goal or two.
Jack Eichel (Vegas) will score, +200
On November 4th, 2021, Jack Eichel was traded to the Vegas Golden Knights from the Buffalo Sabres. One of the many reasons why Vegas acquired him is that he is a generational player, and the general manager knew that Eichel could score a ton of goals. If Jack Eichel wants to prove to his fans that he is a generational talent, he needs to start generating points and assists in every playoff round.
Pavel Dorofeyev (Vegas) will score, +205
Left-winger Pavel Dorofeyev has an insane shot, even on the power play, but the reason why he is a plus instead of a minus is that he only has a single goal in his entire two seasons of being in the postseason. After Dorofeyev ended the season with 35 goals, I thought he would be lights out in this postseason, but only time will tell. Round 1 is going to be a great one.
These three players for the Vegas Golden Knights have to step up their game and eventually motivate the rest of their team if they want to win the Stanley Cup. Out of all these players, Captain Mark Stone especially needs to pump up the game.
