The Vegas Golden Knights clinched their fourth Pacific Division title in franchise history with a 5-3 victory over the Nashville Predators. Noah Hanifin scored the go-ahead goal with just 1:55 remaining, breaking a 3-3 tie and ending his seven-game point drought. The Golden Knights also received contributions from Brett Howden and Nicolas Roy, who each recorded a goal and an assist, while Ivan Barbashev sealed the win with an empty-net goal. This game marked a significant achievement for the team, as they set a franchise record for home points and tied for the most home wins in a season.
