Overview
- Vegas leads the series 2-1 after a wild double-overtime 5-4 Game 3 that saw Carolina rally from a 4-0 deficit on Saturday before Shea Theodore won it for the Golden Knights.
- Coach Rod Brind’Amour said he has picked a starter for Game 4 but will not announce who it is, and Frederik Andersen took a maintenance day after being pulled in Game 3.
- Brandon Bussi relieved Andersen in Game 3, stopped 18 of 19 shots including a penalty shot by Mitch Marner, and has emerged as a plausible alternative for the start.
- Injury and availability notes changed lineups in practice on Monday as William Carrier skated and is hopeful to play while Vegas missed Noah Hanifin and Brayden McNabb at practice.
- Game 4 is Tuesday night at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas at 8:00 p.m. ET on ABC, and a Vegas win would give them a 3-1 lead that historically has led to an almost certain Cup victory.
