Cooley Scores Four to Power Mammoth Past Golden Knights 5-1

The result snapped Vegas' six-game point streak, spotlighting recurring puck-management problems.

Overview

  • Logan Cooley recorded four straight goals and an assist, including a natural hat trick capped by empty-netters, marking the NHL’s first four-goal game this season.
  • Dylan Guenther added a goal and an assist for Utah, while Karel Vejmelka stopped 33 shots to back the 5-1 home win.
  • Ivan Barbashev scored the lone Vegas goal and Carl Lindbom made 20 saves, remaining winless through six NHL starts.
  • The game turned on a third-period Jack Eichel turnover that sprung Cooley for a breakaway, echoing a costly Mitch Marner giveaway in Vegas’ previous overtime loss to Anaheim.
  • The matchup came five days after Vegas’ 4-1 win in Salt Lake City; both clubs now return home to host Ottawa on Wednesday.
