Vegas Golden Knights fans breathed a sigh of relief as defenseman Brayden McNabb made a triumphant return to the lineup for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Carolina Hurricanes. Just two games prior, McNabb's season was put in jeopardy when a puck to the face in front of the net sent him to the locker room for emergency evaluation. Despite initial concerns, the rugged defenseman was cleared to play and took his place alongside his Golden Knights teammates at T-Mobile Arena for the pivotal matchup. With McNabb back in the fold, the Knights will look to regain momentum in the series after a disappointing loss in Game 2.

Defenseman Brayden McNabb, who left Game 2 after taking a puck to the face in front of the net, returned to the lineup Saturday, and started for the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Carolina Hurricanes at T-Mobile Arena.
