2023-24 SEASON SERIES
The Golden Knights skated to a 4-0-0 record against the Sharks during the 2023-24 season. Vegas outscored San Jose, 18-5, during the four matchups between the teams last season. Alex Pietrangelo led the Golden Knights with six points (1G, 5A) against the Sharks last season while William Karlsson posted five points (2G, 3A).
KEYS TO THE GAMEStart Strong: While there are no points on the line in Sunday’s game, the Golden Knights will still look to use the matchup to start the 2024-25 season with some momentum. No matter the circumstance, a win is a win and Vegas’ players are programmed to win whenever they take the ice.
Tanner Time: Tanner Pearson is the only player in Golden Knights training camp on a PTO. Every game is an opportunity for the 2014 Stanley Cup champion to show that he still has what it takes to contribute in the NHL.
