It appears the Vegas Golden Knights plucked the right player from the Nashville Predators, as expansion draft pickup James Neal buried his second game-winning goal in as many nights with an overtime tally Saturday night.
Neal scored two goals in the third period of Vegas' first-ever game Friday night, and was able to come through in the clutch again with a nice five-hole finish to top the Arizona Coyotes.
