However, it didn't look like it would be that easy for Vegas at first. About 50 minutes into the game, Colorado led 1–0 - but Vegas pressed hard and was rewarded in the middle of the third period.
With Jack Eichel's wrist shot finding the net, Vegas got a flying start, and teammate Ivan Barbashev added two more goals.
Vegas now leads the series against Colorado 2–0. The winner will face either Montreal or Carolina in the Stanley Cup Final. In the other semifinal series, Montreal leads 1–0.
