If it seems like the Golden Knights have hit more pipes than a busy plumber in recent weeks, that’s because they have.
Jonathan Marchessault was the latest to see a shot clank off the goal post early in the first period of the Knights’ 4-1 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday at Bell MTS Place.
The Knights are tied for second in the NHL with Minnesota, having hit the post or crossbar 43 times in 49 games.
They’ve hit the post 32 times, which is tied for sixth in the league, and are second behind Vancouver with 11 shots off the crossbar.
