In a dominant performance, the Vegas Golden Knights defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-2, marking their third consecutive victory and elevating their recent record to six wins in their last seven games. Jack Eichel, Noah Hanifin, and Tomas Hertl bolstered the team’s offense, each contributing a goal and an assist. Notably, Hanifin has achieved three straight multi-point games, while Eichel is now only four points away from matching the franchise’s single-season record.

The Golden Knights expanded their Pacific Division lead to six points over the Edmonton Oilers, showcasing their formidable home-record advantage. Adin Hill was solid between the pipes, making 29 saves, while the Maple Leafs saw their four-game road win streak come to an end. With Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner scoring for Toronto, it was a disappointing night for the team, which fell to 18-10-2 on the road.
