Mark Stone Held the Golden Knights Record for Fastest to 100 Points. Mitch Marner Took It in 98 Games With a Short-Handed Goal in Buffalo.
The Golden Knights broke a scoreless game in the second period when Marner got his stick on a Tage Thompson pass at the blue line and went in alone for a short-handed goal at 12:17, NHL.com reported. Jack Eichel made it 2-0 at 13:43 after Ivan Barbashev, just out of the penalty box, fed him for a quick wrist shot.
Beck Malenstyn pulled Buffalo within 2-1 early in the third, but Tomas Hertl answered twice, at 5:43 off a backhand feed from Marner and at 10:00 off a pass from Barbashev. Adin Hill made 27 saves for Vegas, and Colten Ellis stopped 22 for the Sabres. "How we started in the second is how we have to start every night," Hertl said, according to NHL.com.
Marner now has 27 goals and 73 assists in a Vegas sweater, and he passed Stone, who reached 100 points in 103 games on March 5, 2021, NHL.com reported. The win was the Golden Knights' third straight and extended their point streak to four games, lifting them to 12-5-2. Buffalo, which had won four of its previous five, fell to 8-6-3.
