VGK lost a point late in regulation when Arturri Lehkonen tied the score up late with two minutes remaining as the Golden Knights squandered two-goal leads twice and fell in a shootout to the Avalanche 6-5 in a shootout.  You could see why the Avs are the top team in the league, as they twice erased two-goal leads.  The Avalanches were also beneficiaries of three goals that were deflected of VGK players.  Mitch Marner had the lone goal in the shootout for the Golden Knights, who dropped to 1-5 in shootout periods.  The Golden Knights are back in action Monday night as they host the hot Wild, who have won eight of their last ten road encounters.  Minnesota bolstered its lineup recently with the addition of Quinn Hughes who is now on the top defensive pairing.  Kirill Kaprizov is the Wild's leading scorer.  We also have our Locks, Props and Chance for the game.
