3.) This play by Vitek Vanecek

Now, this isn't something that the Vegas Golden Knights should fear. In fact, this play is the equivalent of getting extra candy on Halloween. However, it's still a funny incident that will haunt Sharks fans throughout the season. It was part of a seven-goal barrage that moved the Golden Knights to 6-0-0 at home.

William Karlsson scored an opportune goal against the San Jose Sharks that would've been perfect for a Halloween scare. Vitek Vanecek tried playing the puck being dumped into the defensive zone. Unfortunately, he didn't anticipate the returning forward coming towards him, which caused chaos and a short-handed goal.

This will be what Sharks fans should anticipate throughout the season. It's tough when you're rebuilding and are trying to acquire younger talent to compete. However, it's the price that San Jose pays, which result in spooky play and miscues all around.
