The Golden Knights finally know what time they’re playing the San Jose Sharks in Game 6 Sunday — it’s a 4 p.m. face-off.
If the Knights win Sunday, it will be the first time the VGK will clinch a playoff series on home ice. During the Knights’ miracle season in Year 1, the Golden Knights clinched post-season series against the Kings, Sharks and Jets in the first three rounds in their opponent’s building each time.
If the Knights get through the Sharks Sunday, they will play the red-hot Colorado Avalanche, the eight-seeded team in the Western Conference that upset the Calgary Flames Friday night in Calgary to win their series, 4-1.
The Knights failed to clinch their series Thursday night in San Jose, and Vegas leads the series, 3-2.
By coming home for a Game 6, the Knights do earn a massive ticket revenue day as 18,500 fans are expected to pack the Big Ice House by the Strip Sunday. The NHL, however, do take a healthy bite out of the ticket sale revenues.
LVSportsBiz.com will be at the Top of the Escalator when the doors open to T-Mobile Arena Sunday afternoon.
