Context & news

For St. Louis, home-ice advantage, recent success in close games, and power-play production could support early pressure and net-front play; this scenario is limited by offensive absences and the risk of turnovers against Vegas's transition game. For Vegas, transition play and recent contributions from Mark Stone, Jack Eichel, Mitch Marner and Trevor Connelly could exploit St. Louis's short recovery; this scenario is limited by travel, the 6-2 loss to Tampa Bay, and still-uncertain defensive execution.

Ice conditions, travel conditions, and the power-play/penalty-kill units have not been verified.
