The Golden Knights will be wondering how they got here given their early 2-0 lead in the series, then almost facing elimination in game six. The side finished one point behind third-placed LA Kings in the Pacific Division who have been eliminated in the first round by the Oilers.
Vegas Golden Knights key players and injuries
Nicolas Hague and Robin Lehner are both sidelined for game seven of round one due to their ongoing injury concerns.
Recent performances from Noah Hanifin, who put on a spectacular shift in game six by scoring a goal, will make him a key player for the Golden Knights heading into game seven.

The Stars would be rather disappointed to be in their current predicament, considering their finish at the top of the Central Division. They will be looking to end their turbulent run of form and defeat the Golden Knights and march onto round two.
Dallas Stars key players and injuries
The Stars see three key players out of contention for their upcoming fixture against the Golden Knights, Jani Hakanpaa, Mason Marchment and Jerad Rosburg are all sidelined due to their ongoing injuries.
