Golden Knights dynamic duo of Jack Eichel and Pavel Dorofeyev draws parallels to 2023

LAS VEGAS — So many historical parallels can be drawn between Wednesday night’s double-overtime Game 5 between the Vegas Golden Knights and Utah Mammoth and previous playoff exploits.Brett Howden was the hero for Vegas, winning a puck battle in the corner, then unleashing a wrist shot. He put so much force into the shot that he fell to the ice as he released the puck, which zipped by Utah goaltender Karel Vejmelka’s glove and into the top corner of the net to give Vegas a 5-4 win and a 3-2 series lead.Advertisement
