Lavoie's First NHL Goal Sinks Senators 4-1

Raphael Lavoie scored his first NHL goal at 8:01 of the third period, securing a 2-1 lead for the Vegas Golden Knights against the Ottawa Senators. This pivotal goal came after the Senators had tied the game just seconds into the period. Braeden Bowman opened the scoring for Vegas with a power-play goal late in the second period.

William Karlsson and Jack Eichel added empty-net goals late in the third to seal the 4-1 victory. Goaltender Adin Hill made 24 saves, starting in place of Carter Hart who was injured at the morning skate. The win ended a three-game winless skid for the Golden Knights, who were previously 0-2-1 in their last three contests. Shane Pinto scored the lone goal for the Senators, who were defeated despite a 25-save performance from Jonas Johansson.
