Laurent Brossoit made 28 saves to earn the third shutout of his career as the Vegas Golden Knights dumped the Edmonton Oilers 4-0 Tuesday night at Rogers Place.
“We made the bigger mistakes, and they capitalized on those mistakes,” Ryan Nugent-Hopkins said after the game.
The Golden Knights took the lead halfway through the first when Brett Howden steamed down the left side and beat Edmonton goaltender Mike Smith five-hole.
On an Oilers power play late in the first, Vegas forward Reilly Smith blocked Edmonton defenceman Tyson Barrie’s point shot and broke in two-on-nothing with William Karlsson. Smith passed across to Karlsson, who buried his seventh.
“It’s something we know we need to take care of and we’ve been working on it,” Nugent-Hopkins said about allowing goals off the rush. “The first two are basically two breakaways or two on zero, and that’s tough on Smitty.”
“Those odd-man rushes come from lack of execution,” Zach Hyman said. “I think we were just a little sloppy in that sense. That’s how you give up a breakaway.”
The Oilers killed off a Vegas power play early in the second, but the Knights’ Alex Pietrangelo scored shortly after to make it 3-0.
“Part of it is Vegas; they come at you hard,” Oilers coach Dave Tippett said of the opponent.
