2022 Season Outlook for the Knights
By Evan Mead
The Vegas Knights are ready for their season to start, and quite frankly, I think everyone is ready for some real hockey.
So the Vegas Knights season is getting closer and closer each day. After a three month hiatus, hockey is back and ready for things to go back to normal. After falling short to the Canadiens last season, the Knights are back, and they appear ready.
So far this pre-season it’s been very up and down. Don’t worry about it yet, it’s pre-season. Just hold on tight and make sure you don’t overreact. Players are generally working towards finding a form of chemistry, trying new things, and getting their legs back underneath them. As of October 12th, all of these games will become absolutely meaningless. So don’t get to wrapped up into how players are performing.
So with that being stated, let’s get into what I’ll actually be talking about in this article. The 2022 season is six days away, and I felt it was about time to make my predictions for each game this season. I know this may seem extreme to predict each game throughout the season, but that’s the beauty of this article. So, before I get started, make sure to comment and let me know on things you’d change or agree with.
