Slow Them Down: The Ducks are a young, fast team that thrives off the rush, making it critical to limit their speed and opportunities in Game 2. Noah\u00a0Hanifin emphasized the importance of stronger checking and better gap control to disrupt Anaheim\u2019s transition game. After lessons learned in Game 1, the Golden Knights must play with pace, move the puck efficiently, and force the Ducks to defend for extended stretches.<\/p>\n
