Command Analysis
The Vegas Golden Knights started their 2021/2022 NHL campaign with a victory over Seattle (4:3). This success was achieved thanks to the excellent actions of forward Pacioretti, who gave an assist and scored a double. After that, the Golden Knights traveled to Los Angeles, where they suffered a devastating defeat at the hands of the Kings (2:6). Goaltender Lehner was unreliable and was substituted after conceding four goals in the third period.
Back at home, the Golden Knights were defeated by St. Louis (1:3). Vegas showed poor performance on the offensive, which is not typical for the club.
The Edmonton Oilers are on an impressive winning streak of eight games. The Oilers carried their momentum through the preseason, smashing opponents in almost every match. In the regular season, Edmonton had some difficulties only against Vancouver, who they defeated in the penalty shootout (3:2 P).
The Oilers left no chance for Calgary (5:2) and Arizona (5:1). Forward McDavid scored five goals in two matches and gave one assist. Anaheim put up a good fight, but the Oilers still prevailed in regulation time (6:5).
