LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Vegas Golden Knights’ captain Mark Stone is a leader on and off the ice, and he credits locals for making it easy to represent Las Vegas.
Vegas has now won six straight games and is playing its best hockey of the season with a near stranglehold on the Pacific as well as sitting third in the Western Conference and fourth overall in the league.
Pavel Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal with 3:10 left to snap a tie, and the Vegas Golden Knights rallied for their fifth straight win, 5-3 over the Chicago Blackhawks.
Stone recorded a pair of assists and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Wild.
Donato’s breakaway goal gave the Blackhawks a 1-0 lead at 16:15 of the first period. Donato took a long pass from Ethan Del Mastro at the blue line and skated in on Hill, who stopped Donato’s first attempt. Donato picked up the rebound and slipped it past Hill's right pad.
Tomas Hertl scored a goal and the Vegas Golden Knights beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2. Hertl continued his hot streak one night after netting his second hat trick this year, as he scored his team-high 31st goal of the season midway through the first period to give Vegas a 2-0 lead.
CHICAGO - The Chicago Blackhawks took on the Vegas Golden Knights at United Center on Friday night. Vegas, a Stanley Cup contender, is a team that should normally be trouble for Chicago.
