McNabb Exits Hurt as Golden Knights Brace for Game 2

Brayden McNabb leaves Game 2 of the West Final with an injury, and that is the sort of moment that can change a series in a hurry. In the playoffs, one defenseman going down does not just affect pairings - it changes the whole rhythm of the back end. Coaches start juggling minutes, opponents start targeting matchups, and everybody in the building suddenly understands the stakes a little better. For Vegas, this is exactly the kind of injury that forces immediate answers.
