ANAHEIM, Calif. — Max Pacioretty could return to the Golden Knights lineup Friday when they face the Anaheim Ducks at Honda Center.
Opening faceoff is 7 p.m., and the game will be televised on AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain.
Pacioretty missed the past seven games after being injured midway through the Knights 1-0 loss at Columbus on Dec. 17. He took line rushes during Thursday’s practice with center Cody Eakin and winger Ryan Carpenter and also worked with the No. 2 power-play unit.
“Max played with Eakin there a little bit, and they played unbelievable hockey and scored a lot of goals,” coach Gerard Gallant said.
