Vegas captain Mark Stone scored quickly after missing two months, Tomas Hertl had a nifty goal in his playoff debut for the Golden Knights and the reigning Stanley Cup champions opened defense of their title with a 4-3 win over the top-seeded Dallas Stars on Monday night.
Apr 23, 2024 at 12:36 AM ETDALLAS — Vegas captain Mark Stone scored quickly after missing two months and his first-time linemate Tomas Hertl had a nifty goal in his playoff debut for the Golden Knights.
“Awesome … a lot of fun,” Hertl said of playing with Stone."Hopefully we can just keep building every game and getting better and better for our team. i think we will get better and we will score a lot of goals for our team.” Logan Thompson got the start in net for Vegas, stopping 27 shots in his post-season debut after coach Bruce Cassidy went with him over fellow 27-year-old goalie Adin Hill, who had a 1.99 goals-against-average and two shutouts against the Stars in the West final last year. The two had split starts down the stretch, though Hill had struggled much of this season with injuries and inconsistent play.
Vegas led 2-0 when Marchessault scored on a pass from Ivan Barashev. Marchessault and William Karlsson are the only Knights who have played in all 89 playoffs games for the franchise that has made the post-season in seven of its eight seasons. Benn took a long pass from Wyatt Johnston and after charging toward the net, made a slick move and swiped the puck through Thompson's legs to get the Stars to 2-1.
