Golden Knights secure overtime win over Kings in anniversary match

Summary

The Vegas Golden Knights defeated the Los Angeles Kings 2-1 in overtime on October 10, 2026, during a match celebrating the ninth anniversary of their inaugural season. The game featured limited scoring and strong goaltending, with Golden Knights goaltender Carter Hart stopping 26 of 27 shots. Both teams struggled offensively, reminiscent of their first playoff series together six years earlier, which had only 10 total goals. The Golden Knights had a highlight moment during a critical 5-on-3 penalty kill that energized their team.

What they're saying

"
Las Vegas, N.V.– When I spoke to James Neal on Thursday, the original Golden Misfit repeatedly used the word “fun” to describe the Vegas Golden Knights’ inaugural season. In fact, Neal said that season was the most fun year of his hockey career. So, it’s pretty ironic that the game celebrating the ninth anniversary of that 2017-18 team was slow, boring, and not very fun at all.
