Golden Knights win game 6 and eliminate wildly in the western 1st round

Stone then made the third period 3-1 at 4:02 p.m. when he hit McNabbs centering out of the air in front of the air.

Hartman replied 31 seconds later to cut it to 3: 2 and reduce a rebound on the left post.

“If you expand the leadership of 2-1, you hate that the last goal will be in to make it tight, but that's hockey. You kept putting it,” said Cassidy. “When you look at the last three games, our top boys were much more productive and effective than in the first three games. This is probably the greatest story. Goalkeeper, Theodore, Eichel, Stone, all. We got better in the course of the series, and it showed itself and culminated tonight.”

Theodore gave Vegas an early 1-0 lead at 3:30 a.m. in the first period. He achieved the blocker side with a shot through the traffic over the circles of the power play.

Hill held a game with a goal when he refused Marcus Foligno at 9:40 a.m.

“I knew that foligno was there and I thought (noah) Hanifin blocked the pass, but it still came there somehow, so just a kind of despair with my leg,” said Hill.

Hartman tied it 1-1 with a four-second lead in the first period and achieved a one-timer through the traffic on a one-timer.

“We fought,” said Hartman. “Two overtime losses [in Games 4 and 5] And a tight one tonight. The feeling that it could easily have been seven, but we had the feeling that we had what you needed to go forward.

“The self -confidence that we had in our group for a deep run – I think we had some pretty good teams for years, but these, the things that we got through as we captured with things feel that we could have gone deep.”
