The Golden Knights and Vancouver Canucks meet Tuesday night in Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinal series in Edmonton, Alberta. The Knights lead the series 1-0.
The Golden Knights never have been afraid to get into oral jousting matches with opponents. And, without fans at Rogers Place, their voices are carrying more than ever.
The Brazilian newspaper “O Globo” said the soccer team Flamengo could get involved in Las Vegas’ MLS plans, but local officials would not confirm whether that was true.

The Canucks began the NHL postseason seeded seventh in the Western Conference, then defeated Minnesota in four games and St. Louis in six.
The Knights still don’t know who they’re playing or when they’re playing, but they’re trying to take advantage of a break in their schedule.
The unique nature of this NHL postseason means Golden Knights general manager Kelly McCrimmon doesn’t have to travel far to watch other teams, and he’s taken full advantage.
The Golden Knights, who eliminated the Chicago Blackhawks in five games, won’t know their next opponent for several days and won’t play again until Tuesday at the earliest.
Right wing Alex Tuch continued his impressive start to the postseason by scoring the series-clinching goal in the Golden Knights’ 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks.
The Golden Knights’ TV broadcasts on AT&T SportsNet have been coming from an empty T-Mobile Arena, and the radio broadcasts are coming from City National Arena.
The Golden Knights had a series-high five scoring chances on the power play Sunday, but couldn’t find the back of the net in a 3-1 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks.
