Marc-Andre Fleury Barely Tested In Saturday's Win
Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury allowed one goal on 18 shots during a 3-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday night.

Cody Eakin Scores Third Goal Of The Season
Vegas Golden Knights forward Cody Eakin scored his third goal of the season on Tuesday, with his short-handed marker ending up as the game-winner in a 4-1 result against Buffalo.

Reilly Smith Picks Up Pair Of Helpers
Vegas Golden Knights right wing Reilly Smith recorded two assists in Tuesday's 4-1 win over Buffalo to make it four points in seven games thus far. His start to the season has been slow -- these are his first assists of the year -- but Vegas' top line was one of the best in hockey […]
William Karlsson Has Three-Point Night
Vegas Golden Knights center William Karlsson picked up three points from the team's 4-1 win over Buffalo on Tuesday, including his first goal of the season.

Jonathan Marchessault Scores Twice Versus Sabres
Vegas Golden Knights forward Jonathan Marchessault scored half of the team's goals in a 4-1 win over Buffalo on Tuesday.

Cody Eakin Scores Lone Goal In Saturday's Victory
Vegas Golden Knights center Cody Eakin buried the game-winning goal with just 1:25 remaining in regulation to down the Philadelphia Flyers 1-0.

Marc-Andre Fleury Struggles In Nation's Capital
Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury allowed four goals on just 28 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss against the Washington Capitals.
