Recap: The Golden Knights were looking to take a 2-1 series lead with a Game 3 victory in Utah. The Mammoth struck first midway through the opening frame to take their first home playoff lead in franchise history. Utah doubled their lead, on the power play moments after Brayden McNabb was whistled for a high-sticking penalty. After one period down, the Golden Knights trailed 2-0.
Utah added two more goals in the first ten minutes of the middle frame to take a commanding 4-0 advantage. At the 13:20 mark of the period, Jack Eichel tapped in a rebound for Vegas’ first goal of the game.
Vegas battled Utah in the final frame, had a few power play chances but could only get one ffrom Nic Dowd.
The Golden Knights fall behind 2-1 in the seven-game series by falling to the Mammoth 4-1 in Utah. Game 4 is scheduled for Monday night in Salt Lake City. Time is still TBA but it’ll be at night. (Recap by Jason)
Analysis: An old familiar foe reared its ugly head at a terrible time for the Golden Knights. They started the game about as well as you can both territorially and with opportunities to score. Unfortunately, as experienced many times this year, VGK could not solve the goalie and then allowed a weird one on the other end. It snowballed over the next 20 minutes and before they knew it they were in a 4-0 hole. No matter how much possession or even power plays you have, that’s nearly i mpossible to climb out of this time of year. (Recap by Ken)

Before the series, the Mammoth claimed they knew where Hart's weak spots were. In the first two games they never really had a chance to get looks to pick them out. They have tonight and the answer is (unsurprisingly because it's the case for most goalies) up around his ears.
4-0…

Oh boy, the Keller line has arrived.
Schmaltz with a controlled entry, puts it in the slot, and Crouse roofs the tip.
The "down 3 VGK" better be the best they've ever been.

Unbelievable how often this has happened to VGK. Absolutely dominating the period, one turnover deep on the zone, pucks spits out and somehow gets through Hart. 1-0 UTA
