Golden Knights must wait for all Western Conference series to end

When the Golden Knights had their mandatory bye week in January, several players spent the time off relaxing in Cabo San Lucas.

That’s not going to happen on this break.

“This is not like the bye week where they have five days off and they’re not skating and they’re not training,” general manager George McPhee said Wednesday at City National Arena. “We’re not going to Mexico.”

Fresh off a four-game sweep of Los Angeles, the Knights await their second-round opponent from the Anaheim-San Jose series. San Jose leads 3-0 entering Game 4 on Wednesday night.

The Knights must wait for the remaining first-round series to finish before the Western Conference semifinals can begin and could be off for another week.
