Pavel Dorofeyev netted the game-winning goal late in the third period, leading the Vegas Golden Knights to a 5-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks, marking their fifth consecutive win. Victor Olofsson tallied twice, while Mark Stone and Brett Howden contributed to the scoreline, with Howden sealing the game with an empty-netter. Despite Ryan Donato's impressive hat trick, the struggling Blackhawks fell to their ninth loss in ten games.

The Golden Knights capitalized on their power play opportunities, particularly when Dorofeyev struck following a hooking penalty on Teuvo Teravainen. Adin Hill effectively kept the Blackhawks at bay, making critical saves, including a pivotal stop on Frank Nazar during a 3-3 impasse. Vegas now stands poised for another division title as they aim to build on this momentum.
