Tomas Hertl scored two goals and two assists as the Vegas Golden Knights defeated the Los Angeles Kings 6-1 on Tuesday night.

The win snapped Vegas’ three-game losing skid, all during a recent road trip. The Golden Knights remained undefeated at home this season.

Mark Stone, Pavel Dorofeyev, Alexander Holtz and Ivan Brabashev also scored for Vegas, while Ilya Samsonov stopped 31 shots.

Warren Foegele scored and David Rittich made 24 saves for the Kings, who were playing their seventh straight game to open the season.

Kings: Trevor Moore had six points through the first six games of the season, which was tied for the most for any player in the Western Conference. He finished with none against the Golden Knights.

Golden Knights: After coming into the game with a plus-minus of minus-3, Holtz scored his first goal with Vegas. He and goaltender Akira Schmid were acquired from New Jersey in June for forward Paul Cotter.

Key moment

During 6:05 of the first period, the Golden Knights enjoyed one of their best stretches of cohesive hockey since the start of the season, taking a 3-0 lead that was determined by two goals from their best power play unit. Hertl scored his first goal of the match, followed by Stone’s goal. Dorofeyev ended the three-goal barrage to let Vegas seize the momentum early.

Key stat

Hertl matched his career-high with four points, a feat he has accomplished three times. It was the 12-year veteran’s first four-point performance since Jan. 17, 2022, when he had four assists for San Jose in a 6-2 win over the Kings.

Next

The Golden Knights host Ottawa on Friday to continue a four-game homestand on Friday, and the Kings host San Jose in their home opener on Thursday night.
