The Vegas Golden Knights have officially advanced to the second round of the'2023 NHL Playoffs'after knocking off the Winnipeg Jets in their opening series. Now the Pacific Division's No. 1 seed prepares for a semifinals matchup.
Here's everything you need to know about the Golden Knights' upcoming second round series.
When Do the Golden Knights Play Next in the NHL Playoffs?
The Golden Knights won't be waiting long for their next game, which will be sometime next week. This will be the first game of a best-of-seven series with a trip to the Western Conference Finals on the line.
Who Will the Golden Knights Play in Round 2 of the Playoffs?
As the 1-seed in the Pacific Divisi on, Vegas will face the winner of the series between the No. 2 Edmonton Oilers and No. 3 Los Angeles Kings.
The Golden Knights' second-round matchup will be a typical best-of-seven series that follows the 2-2-1-1-1 format. That means the better seed (Vegas) hosts Games 1 and 2, plus Games 5 and 7 if those are necessary. The worse seed (Edmonton/Los Angeles) hosts Games 3 and 4, plus Game 6 if that is necessary.
If the Golden Knights beat the Oilers or Kings to advance, they would then head to the Western Conference Finals with a Stanley Cup Finals berth on the line.
