The Vegas Golden Knights (29-19-14) closed out their five-game road trip with a 4-3 overtime win against the Detroit Red Wings (35-20-7) on Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena.
Reilly Smith opened the scoring for the Golden Knights less than two minutes into the game, but the Red Wings answered with three straight goals — including tallies 59 seconds apart from Simon Edvinsson and Alex DeBrincat — to take a 3–1 lead into the first intermission. After a scoreless second period, Ivan Barbashev began Vegas’ comeback by cutting the deficit to one before Mitch Marner tied the game five minutes later. In overtime, Tomas Hertl buried a power-play chance off a feed from Marner to secure the win. Marner finished with three points (1G, 2A), Hertl recorded a goal and an assist including the game-winner, and Rasmus Andersson added two assists for his first multi-point game with Vegas. Adin Hill stopped 23 of 26 shots, and the Golden Knights earned their 57th overtime victory since their inaugural 2017–18 season, the fifth-most in the NHL during that span.
