Mark Stone ignited the Vegas Golden Knights' offense just 19 seconds into their game against the St. Louis Blues, setting the tone for a 4-2 victory that halted a four-game losing streak. In a match that saw the Knights struggle recently, they turned things around with contributions from Victor Olofsson, Pavel Dorofeyev, and Tomas Hertl, who sealed the win by scoring into an empty net. Meanwhile, Ilya Samsonov was crucial in goal, making 15 saves. The Blues were unable to find their rhythm, managing only 27 shots against a resolute Vegas defense.
Dorofeyev's power-play goal marked his team-leading 21st of the season, while both Jordan Kyrou and Robert Thomas found the net for the Blues. Kyrou's response came shortly after Olofsson's early strike, but the Blues struggled to maintain offensive pressure throughout the night. Notably, the Golden Knights improved to a perfect record when holding opponents under 20 shots this season, displaying a solid defensive effort to back their early scoring.
