Mark Stone<\/a> scored twice, and Ivan Barbashev<\/a>\u00a0had a goal and an assist for the Golden Knights (32-26-15), who have lost five of their past six games (1-4-1). Hill made 25 saves.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a battle for us since the Olympic break to win games,\u201d Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said. \u201cSo, let\u2019s get winning again, feel good about ourselves, and take care of winning.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Golden Knights are in third place in the Pacific, two points behind the Oilers and three ahead of the Los Angeles Kings, who defeated the Vancouver Canucks 4-0 on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s put ourselves in the dance. There are no guarantees, so we must continue to wake up in the morning, put our best foot forward, and get better,\u201d Stone said. \u201cWe played a pretty good 5-on-5 game. Our problem is that we\u2019re making some big mistakes. That\u2019s just what we got to clean up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Savoie gave the Oilers a 1-0 lead at 11:52 of the first period, taking a pass from McDavid at the upper edge of the left circle and beating Hill short side.<\/p>\n

Stone tied the game 1-1 at 4:09 of the second period. Ingram saved Barbashev’s one-timer in front before getting over to stop Jack Eichel<\/a>‘s rebound attempt from the bottom of the right circle with his glove. That rebound popped into the air, and the puck ended up bouncing to Stone, who swiped it with his backhand five-hole on Ingram.<\/p>\n

It was Stone\u2019s first goal since Feb. 5 (10 games).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s nice to see ‘Stoney’ score, he\u2019s been having a lot of chances,\u201d Barbashev said. \u201cAs a team, I don\u2019t remember the last time we scored 5-on-5. There\u2019s a lot of improvements we\u2019ve been seeing in our game. It\u2019s going to turn around pretty soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

McDavid put Edmonton ahead 2-1 at 7:27, electing to shoot on a 3-on-1 rush and scoring blocker side from the right circle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mark Stone scored twice, and Ivan Barbashev\u00a0had a goal and an assist for the Golden Knights (32-26-15), who…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":564004,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194294],"tags":[49,48,23752],"class_list":{"0":"post-564003","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-edmonton","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-edmonton"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/564003","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=564003"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/564003\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/564004"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=564003"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=564003"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=564003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
