Vegas Golden Knights News & Notes:
The Vegas Golden Knights recently signed Belarusian goaltender Pavel Moysevich to a three-year entry-level contract. The 21-year-old is coming over from the KHL after terminating his contract. Vegas comes into Winnipeg having goaltending problems, and it could make or break their chances at staying in the Pacific Division playoff spot. Vegas is 4-6-0 in their last 10 games played.
Winnipeg Jets News & Notes:
The Winnipeg Jets are nearing full health for a long time as Nino Niederreiter and Vladislav Namestnikov skated in non-contact jerseys at morning skate today. Winnipeg is 5-3-2 in their last 10 games played as they chase a playoff spot.

Players To Watch:
Vegas Golden Knights
Mitch Marner has been an excellent centre for the Vegas Golden Knights. If he continues to drive the second line, Vegas could be hard to contain tonight in Winnipeg.
Winnipeg Jets
Connor Hellebuyck is looking to steal a game or two for the Winnipeg Jets. Tonight against Vegas could very well be that game he steals.
Next game
Vegas Golden Knights – March 26 vs Edmonton Oilers
Winnipeg Jets – March 26 vs Colorado Avalanche
