Golden Knights pasted by Devils in 3rd straight home loss

Have teams found a cure to the Vegas Flu?

For the third straight game, the Vegas Golden Knights dropped a contest on home ice, falling 8-3 to the visiting New Jersey Devils on Wednesday.

It was a tough loss for Vegas, as starter Marc-Andre Fleury was chased from the cage after allowing four goals on 11 shots.

The latest stumble follows home losses to the Ottawa Senators and Los Angeles Kings.

The defeat brings the Golden Knights to a record of 24-8-2 at T-Mobile Arena this year, while the current skid marks the first time this season Vegas has lost three in a row on home ice.

The team's last win in Sin City came Feb. 23 against the Vancouver Canucks.

Wednesday's contest opened a four-game home stand for the Golden Knights, meaning the team will have the chance to get back to its winning ways on home ice when they take on the Minnesota Wild on Friday.
