Vegas Golden Knights right wing Reilly Smith recorded two goals, including the game-winning tally in Saturday's 4-3 victory over the Edmonton Oilers. He tied the game at two goals apiece late in the first period and scored a buzzer-beating game-winner with only 0.4 seconds left to play in regulation. Smith's fourth shot on goal got a lucky bounce off Leon Draisaitl's stick, giving him the third-latest third-period winning goal in Stanley Cup Playoffs history. The Golden Knights badly needed it after falling 2-0 behind in the series on home ice. Smith had gone pointless in the matchup before potting a pair of goals Saturday night. He now has four points (three goals, one assist) in nine playoff appearances. Vegas has lost two top-six forwards, Brandon Saad (lower body) and Mark Stone (upper body), in quick succession to injury, meaning the rest of the attack, including Smith, must step up to keep the team in contention.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
