Vegas (42-27-8, 92 points) is holding the Western Conference's second wild-card position.
Thomas Hertl, acquired from the San Jose Sharks at the trade deadline, collected one assist in his Golden Knights debut, his first game since knee surgery in late January.

Eichel converted his team's first shot when he opened the scoring 111 seconds into the clash by using a defenseman as a screen while whipping home a five-hole shot on the power play. He doubled the lead with his team's second shot on net at the 8:06 mark, burying a feed set up by Jonathan Marchessault's cross-ice pass for his 29th goal of the season.
