The Vegas Golden Knights moved to within one win of ultimate glory as they picked up a 3-2 win in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday night at FLA Live Arena. Vegas leads the series, 3-1.

HOW IT WENT DOWN
Chandler Stephenson got the scoring started less than two minutes into the game as he raced past the Florida defense and fired a shot home to make it 1-0 for the visitors. Stephenson doubled the lead in the second period as he one-timed a pass from Mark Stone to give the Golden Knights a 2-0 edge. Less than four minutes later, William Karlsson piled on with his first goal of the series to put Vegas ahead, 3-0. Brandon Montour banked a shot in off the Vegas defense to get the Panthers on the board late in the middle frame and the Golden Knights carried the 3-1 lead into the third period. Aleksander Barkov brought Florida to within one early in the third, but Adin Hill slammed the door late to give Vegas its 15th win of the postseason.
