Golden Knights Game 6; Pride Night: Lines, Notes, & How to Watch vs Flames

On Saturday, the Vegas Golden Knights (3-0-2) will host their eighth annual Pride Night and play the second of a short three-game homestand. They’ve won two games in a row and will look to keep the momentum rolling. They’ll play the Calgary Flames (1-4-0) for the second time this week, this time as the host at T-Mobile Arena.

Puck drop is scheduled for 7:08 p.m. PST.

The Golden Knights were last in action on Thursday at home against the Boston Bruins. Despite giving up the first goal yet again, they jumped out to a three-goal lead to start the third period. The Bruins pushed back, but the Golden Knights held on to win in a 6-5 nailbiter.

The Flames last played on Wednesday against the Utah Mammoth. They scored the first goal of the game, but allowed the next three and lost 3-1.

Adin Hill will start tonight, per head coach Bruce Cassidy. It’ll be his first start since exiting Sunday’s game against the Flames with a very, uh, sensitive lower-body injury. He has a record of 3-2-1 and an average save percentage of .921 in eight career games played against the Flames.

Dustin Wolf starts in net for the Flames. Wolf has a record of 2-1-2 and an average save percentage of .908 in five career games against the Golden Knights.
