The Vegas Golden Knights return to action tonight with a game against the Los Angeles Kings, but VGK defenseman Alex Pietrangelo remains on the NHL COVID-19 protocol list and will not be playing.

Golden Knights coach Pete DeBoer will be back after he and two other VGK coaches were in virus protocol.

“It’s all about getting up to game speed and that’s easier said than done when you’ve been off for 10 days. Hopefully we can get through the first period and get our legs underneath us,” DeBoer said Friday.

Here’s today’s NHL COVID list:

The Knights and Kings have a 7 p.m. game today at T-Mobile Arena.
