Let’s go over some news and notes:
- Did you know that the Vegas Golden Knights are going to the playoffs again? It’s true. It’s happening. [KOI]
- And guess who the Golden Knights will be taking on in the first round of the playoffs. You guessed it — the San Jose Sharks, baby. [KOI]
- The bad news is that the Knights are on a five-game losing skid just as the playoffs are about to begin. Not ideal! [KOI]
- Ryan Reaves got fined for taking a stick to the jugular and not being happy about it, so that’s interesting. [NHL]
In other news...
- Alex Ovechkin, at 33 years old, reached the 50-goal milestone again. The man is incredible. [Russian Machine Never Breaks]
