The Golden Knights' power play would then show its dominance, scoring twice, thanks to Dorofeyev, who scored all three of his goals during the second period. The first line would then flex its chemistry with Ivan Barbashev and newcomer Mitch Marner, with Eichel scoring his first of the season, making it 4-3. Later, it was the same trio, with Barbashev scoring to make it 5-3.
