James Neal scored the first goal of the season for the Golden Knights. And the second, the game-winner from his knees on opening night in Dallas.
In fact, the veteran forward racked up six goals in the first four games to jump-start the Knights’ unprecedented first season.
Neal finished with 25 goals and lived up to his reputation as one of the league’s most consistent scorers.
“Can’t say enough about it,” Neal said. “The passion, the excitement, the cheers, everything our fans brought to T-Mobile to here to City National Arena, everything they did all year was amazing.
