Stars Edge Golden Knights 2-1 as Benn’s Power-Play Tip Stands Up

Depth scoring backed by Oettinger’s 26 saves underscores Vegas’ scoring slump.

Overview

  • Jack Eichel put Vegas ahead 91 seconds into the second period before Oskar Back tied it on a rebound for Dallas.
  • Jamie Benn redirected Wyatt Johnston’s shot on the man advantage late in the second for the eventual winner.
  • Jake Oettinger turned aside 26 of 27 shots, while Adin Hill yielded two goals on 16 shots for the Golden Knights.
  • Vegas has lost six of its last seven games and managed 13 goals across the last seven, dropping to third in the Pacific after Anaheim and Edmonton wins.
  • The Golden Knights start a four-game homestand Thursday against the Penguins seeking a reset, while the Stars keep their home stretch going against the Oilers.
