Center Paul Stastny knows the Golden Knights will likely enter their first playoff series as an underdog. He just doesn’t want the team to play like it.
Stastny likes the aggressiveness he’s seen from the Knights since the Feb. 25 trade deadline and wants them to carry that through the final 12 regular-season games beginning Friday at Dallas and into the postseason.
“Defensively, we’ve been playing a lot better,” Stastny said. “We’ve been playing well offensively. We’ve been rolling all four lines. We’ve been playing that aggressive, attacking style and really dictating play. I think for us it’s about dictating play.
