In a thrilling conclusion to Game 3 of the Western Conference second-round series, Reilly Smith of the Vegas Golden Knights scored a remarkable game-winning goal against the Edmonton Oilers with just 0.4 seconds remaining, cutting the Oilers' series lead to 2-1. This last-minute deflection stunned the Edmonton crowd and tied Smith with Nazem Kadri and Jussi Jokinen for the latest go-ahead goal in Stanley Cup Playoff history.

With the game tied at 3-3 after Connor McDavid's goal, Smith maneuvered through defenders and, after a deflection off Leon Draisaitl, found the net. This victory comes as the Golden Knights have faced challenges, including the absence of captain Mark Stone due to injury. The series continues with Game 4 in Edmonton.
