Jack Eichel, Pavel Dorofeyev and William Karlsson also scored and Mitch Marner had two assists for Vegas, which still hasn’t lost in regulation (5-0-2).<\/p>\n
Akira Schmid stopped 23 shots after relieving Adin Hill, who made four saves before he\u00a0left the game midway through the first period\u00a0with an injury. Schmid improved to 4-0-0 this season.<\/p>\n
Dorofeyev is tied with Ottawa\u2019s Shane Pinto and Winnipeg\u2019s Mark Scheifele for the league lead with seven goals, while Eichel leads the league with 16 points.<\/p>\n
Sebastian Aho scored for the Hurricanes, his second of the season. Frederick Andersen (3-1-0) made 21 saves as Carolina lost for the first time after opening the season with five wins.<\/p>\n
Eichel opened the scoring in the first period, when he took a pass from Brandon Saad and ricocheted the puck off Carolina defenseman K\u2019Andre Miller\u2019s stick and past Andersen for his sixth goal of the season.<\/p>\n
Less than two minutes later, just after Hill left the game, Dorofeyev raced in and deked around Andersen with a forehand-backhand to make it 2-0.<\/p>\n
Aho cut the lead in half early in the second period when he beat Schmid from the right circle with a quick wrist shot.<\/p>\n
Barbashev extended Vegas\u2019 lead back to two goals when he stripped the puck from Miller and raced in to beat Andersen.<\/p>\n
Karlsson\u2019s empty-net goal provided the final margin.<\/p>\n
Just before the game, the Golden Knights\u00a0placed captain Mark Stone on injured reserve.<\/p>\n
The Hurricanes continue their season-high six-game trip at Colorado on Thursday, while the Golden Knights open a three-game trip at Florida on Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jack Eichel, Pavel Dorofeyev and William Karlsson also scored and Mitch Marner had two assists for Vegas, which…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":229634,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-229633","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-nhl","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/229633","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=229633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/229633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/229634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=229633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=229633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=229633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
