It was a strong start to the Mitch Marner era in Las Vegas as the Golden Knights new star winger tallied two points in his debut.<\/p>\n

Marner assisted on two third-period goals that broke a tie and then gave the Golden Knights a two-score lead. However, the Los Angeles Kings<\/a> scored twice later on in the third period and won 6-5 in the shootout.<\/p>\n

In addition to his two assists, Marner recorded three shots on goal with one hit, one blocked shot and was a plus-two in 22:48, a team-high among forwards. <\/p>\n

Jack Eichel<\/a>, who signed an eight-year, $108 million extension earlier in the day<\/a>, had one goal and three assists for four points. Pavel Dorofeyev<\/a> also had three goals for Vegas in the loss.<\/p>\n

Marner signed an eight-year extension with the Golden Knights after being acquired in a sign-and-trade from the Toronto Maple Leafs<\/a>. The 28-year-old spent the first eight seasons of his NHL career with the Leafs and is coming off a career-best 102 point last season.<\/p>\n

Marner and the Golden Knights will be back in action Thursday night in San Jose against the Sharks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It was a strong start to the Mitch Marner era in Las Vegas as the Golden Knights new…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":199699,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[16159,64,63,124917,575,85,124916],"class_list":["post-199698","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-apple-news","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-mitchell-marner-sports-hockey-player-player-nhl-api-8478483","tag-nhl","tag-sports","tag-vegas-golden-knights-sports-hockey-team-team-nhl-api-54"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=199698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/199699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=199698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=199698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=199698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
