Bratt Ends Goaltending Duel as Devils Edge Golden Knights 2-1 in Shootout

Missing Jack Eichel plus Shea Theodore, Vegas still gained a point to pull into a Pacific Division tie.

Overview

  • Jesper Bratt scored the deciding goal in the shootout after regulation ended 1-1, giving New Jersey a road win in Las Vegas.
  • Jake Allen stopped 37 shots for the Devils and Carter Hart made 32 saves for the Golden Knights in a tight, low-scoring game.
  • Pavel Dorofeyev tied it late for Vegas with a power-play goal after Connor Brown had opened the scoring for New Jersey.
  • Mitch Marner’s shootout attempt that went in was waved off because the puck deflected in off his skate after a poke-check.
  • Vegas was without day-to-day absences Jack Eichel (illness) and Shea Theodore (upper body), Jeremy Lauzon returned from IR, Brett Pesce rejoined New Jersey’s lineup, and the point moved Vegas into a first-place tie in the Pacific.
