The Vegas Golden Knights will be looking to embrace the new challenges they will face this season. But being recognized as a threat, which teams are going to be the hardest to overcome?

After a interesting year, the NHL has officially agreed to go back to the original 82 game schedule. Furthermore, hockey is finding it’s way to get back to normal. The Vegas Knights are ready to take on the newly incorporated NHL team, the Seattle Kraken, and the fans are anxiously awaiting.

After what feels like a off-season that’s lasted forever, everyone is waiting for the season to start. The Knights fell short last season to the Montreal Canadiens, and will be looking to take that next step and win the Stanley Cup.

Looking Back

The Vegas Golden Knights finished last year with a record of 40-14-2. Looking ahead to this year, the Knights will be looking to win more games and cut down their losses. Prior to last season, the Knights were considered a team to beat in the Western Conference, and with them going back, they will look to re-claim that title.

Being in the Pacific division, they will foresee a lot of tough games, and teams, throughout the season. As stated above, there was a division realignment last year, but what teams are going to give the Knights the toughest battle this year?
