Pavel Dorofeyev<\/a> had a goal and an assist, and Mitch Marner<\/a> scored for the Golden Knights (29-20-14), who have lost four of their past five. Akira Schmid<\/a>\u00a0made 20 saves.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a lot of the same, right? We get behind. We have a bad stretch. One becomes two, becomes three,\u201d Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said. \u201cWe should be better than that. We\u2019re more of a veteran group.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zuccarello put the Wild up 1-0 at 5:18 of the second period, scoring on a breakaway after a Noah Hanifin<\/a>\u00a0turnover with a wrist shot over Schmid’s glove that went bar down.<\/p>\n

Bogosian pushed the lead to 2-0 at 8:07 with a slap shot from the top of the right face-off circle that beat Schmid to the blocker side.<\/p>\n

McCarron scored to extend it to 3-0 just 18 seconds later at 8:25. Brock Faber<\/a>\u00a0sent a wrist shot on net from the right point, and McCarron tipped it in as he battled in front.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust throw it there and let him make a play. That\u2019s obviously a big boy, and he showed he\u2019s got skill to go with it,\u201d Faber said. \u201cHe played great. That\u2019s a really, really big add for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dorofeyev cut the deficit to 3-1 with a power-play goal at 2:17 of the third period, roofing a backdoor pass from Jack Eichel<\/a>\u00a0over Gustavsson’s glove from in tight for his team-leading 30th of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pavel Dorofeyev had a goal and an assist, and Mitch Marner scored for the Golden Knights (29-20-14), who…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":524240,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":["post-524239","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/524239","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=524239"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/524239\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/524240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=524239"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=524239"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=524239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
