What happened: The Anaheim Ducks face the Vegas Golden Knights tonight at 9:30 PM ET on ESPN and the ESPN App. The teams meet in Las Vegas with their playoff series knotted at 2-2 after Vegas took the first two and Anaheim battled back to even things up.

Why it matters: With the series tied, this is a swing game that hands the winner a 3-2 lead and a chance to close out next time. Vegas, led by recent contributions from Mitch Marner's earlier hat trick that staked the Golden Knights to a 2-1 series edge, must defend home ice, while Anaheim looks to seize control on the road.

What to watch: Watch for goaltending matchups and special-teams execution, with goalie Lukáš Dostál's crease routine flagged in ESPN's pregame coverage. Winner takes a 3-2 series lead heading into Game 6.
