Blackhawks have the opportunity to disrupt NHL history tonight against Golden Knights
Chicago Blackhawks Aim to Halt Vegas Golden Knights' Historic Streak
Tonight, the Chicago Blackhawks have a unique opportunity to make a mark in NHL history by disrupting the remarkable run of the Vegas Golden Knights. The Knights are chasing a historic achievement that has never been accomplished in NHL history.
The former Stanley Cup champions, the Vegas Golden Knights, have been in exceptional form, starting the season with an impressive 5-0-0 record. They now find themselves in a position to become the first team in NHL history to achieve this feat starting 6-0-0. The other two teams that have accomplished this are the 1921-22 Ottawa Senators and the legendary 1985-86 Edmonton Oilers, with only 5 wins, not 6 as the Golden Knights are chasing.
The 1985 Oilers, led by the iconic Wayne Gretzky, had an unforgettable season, with Gretzky notching an astounding 215 points. Edmonton also featured one of the greatest defensemen in NHL history, Paul Coffey, along with notable players like Jari Kurri and Mark Messier. Despite their exceptional regular season, the Oilers fell short in the playoffs.
If the Vegas Golden Knights secure a victory against the Chicago Blackhawks tonight, they will etch their names into NHL history books by breaking the record set by the 1985-86 Edmonton Oilers. The Blackhawks have a significant role to play in this thrilling narrative, as they aim to thwart the Knights' quest for an unprecedented achievement.
