The Vegas Golden Knights are facing potential roster challenges as they prepare for Game 3 against the Edmonton Oilers, trailing in the series 2-0. Forward Nicolas Roy is scheduled for a hearing due to a cross-checking incident against Trent Frederic, which left Frederic with a noticeable injury but did not prevent his return to the game. Coach Bruce Cassidy acknowledged that the penalty was warranted and indicated uncertainty regarding defenseman Brayden McNabb's status following a hard hit earlier in the game.

As the Golden Knights aim to rebound, the absence of key players, including Roy and possibly McNabb, could significantly impact their strategy and performance. Cassidy's remarks hint at an adjustment period as they look to regain momentum in the playoffs.
