The Vegas Golden Knights are expecting the return of some key players tonight when they host the Montreal Canadiens at T-Mobile Arena: defenseman Nate Schmidt, winger Alex Tuch and goalie Malcolm Subban. The Habs will be playing back-to-back games after knocking off Arizona last night, 4-1, which is a definite advantage for Vegas. The Golden Knights will be well rested since Sunday’s victory over the Anaheim Ducks and are expected to go with Marc-André Fleury between the pipes. Fleury is 8-3-0, with a 2.30 GAA and a .928 SV%. Keith Kinkaid is expected in goal for Montreal and he is winless, at 0-1-1, with a bloated 4.54 GAA, and a .875 SV%. Hockey in Vegas on Halloween night? It doesn’t get much better than that.
