Vegas Golden Knights: Tuch and Krebs Get Revenge
If there’s one game marked in red, it’s the Sabres-Knights. No, these two teams aren’t exactly heated rivals, but there’s a little bit of history between one of the NHL’s newer franchises and the established Sabres.
With former Sabre Jack Eichel playing at a high level in Vegas, some may believe the Sabres lost out on this trade. But others realize the Sabres could win big long-term. And they’ve also won in the short-term, considering Tuch solidifying himself on the first-line and Peyton Krebs sliding into the second and third line, and playing like a seasoned veteran.
But the relationship with Eichel ended on a sour note. Meanwhile, neither Tuch nor Krebs were able to fully showcase their ability in Vegas. So expect them to pull off multiple-point games in this one en route to a narrow win over the Golden Knights. Tuch and Krebs get their revenge, and a sour Eichel makes a long trip back to the desert empty-handed.
