The Vegas Golden Knights dropped Game 1 of their second-round series against the Edmonton Oilers, 4-2, on Tuesday night at T-Mobile Arena. Edmonton leads the series, 1-0.
HOW IT WENT DOWN
Mark Stone lit the lamp first with a power-play goal just 2:17 into the contest. Stone extended the Vegas lead midway through the frame by converting on a feed from Jack Eichel to put the Golden Knights up by a pair. With less than four minutes to go in the frame, Corey Perry finished off a play in front of the net to get the Oilers on the board. The second period passed without a goal form either side as Adin Hill turned aside all 12 shots he faced in the middle stanza. Leon Draisaitl tied the game less than a minute into the third period before Zach Hyman and Connor Brown each found the back of the net in the final 3:02 to lift Edmonton to the 4-2 win in Game 1.
