After what was a turbulent couple of days, snapping a four-game losing streak was just what the doctor ordered for DeBoer and the Vegas Golden Knights.
Although the Senators are enduring an horrific regular season, they aren’t pushovers and they didn’t make it easy for the Golden Knights.
It was an important win for both Vegas and DeBoer, who met with the media for the first time as the Head Coach of this franchise prior to the game.
There is such a thing as winning the press conference, and DeBoer certainly did that as he approached the situation with honesty and humor.
