Vegas Golden Knights will start their 2025-26 NHL season with an exciting game against Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday night at the T-Mobile Arena. The Golden Knights had an impressive 2024-25 season, winning the Pacific Division with an 82-50-22 record. However, things didn’t go as planned after they crashed out of their postseason campaign with a 4-1 loss against the finalists Edmonton Oilers. The Golden Knights must now strategize and give it another go.
Los Angeles Kings, meanwhile, gave the Golden Knights a run for their money in the Pacific division last season. They finished the campaign second in the division with 105 points, just five points behind the Golden Knights. However, their postseason campaign was short-lived after losing 4-2 to the Oilers. The Kings will be looking to make an opening-day statement with a win against the 2023 champions.
