Golden Knights proving hard to beat on home ice
Home-ice advantage is real for the Vegas Golden Knights.
With a win over the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday, the expansion franchise improved to 8-1-0 at T-Mobile Arena.
That's the fewest amount of home losses among all NHL teams, and matches the New York Rangers, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Toronto Maple Leafs for the most wins.
The only team to beat Vegas in Nevada is the Detroit Red Wings back on Oct. 13, and the Golden Knights have rattled off seven wins in a row since, outscoring the opposition 31-13 over that span.
No wonder the players are loving their new hockey home.

And yes, we’ve now won SEVEN games in a row at home. #Lucky7
Vegas' next home game will be Nov. 24 against San Jose.
