The Vegas Golden Knights have had a tumultuous season, highlighted by the acquisition of Mitch Marner and a mid-season coaching change from Bruce Cassidy to John Tortorella. Despite these challenges, they secured a playoff spot with a recent 3-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche. As the regular season nears its end, five potential first-round opponents emerge, with the Utah Mammoth leading the pack. The other contenders include the Anaheim Ducks, Edmonton Oilers, Los Angeles Kings, and the formidable Colorado Avalanche, who the Knights hope to avoid.
