    Stephen R. Sylvanie - USA TODAY Sports - Golden Knights Earn Much-Needed 2-1 Victory Against Bruins

    Alex Pietrangelo scored the game-winning goal 46 seconds into overtime to hand the Vegas Golden Knights a 2-1 victory against the Boston Bruins on Thursday at T-Mobile Arena.

    Pietrangelo tapped in the puck after receiving a pass from Mark Stone to send the Vegas fans home happy.

    “That's a great pass by 'Stoney.' There’s not a whole lot of room if you watch the replay to thread that through there,” Pietrangelo said of the game-winner. “It's why he gets paid what he does. Unbelievable play. Easy for me to tap that in. Wide-open net.”

    Jack Eichel also scored and had an assist. Logan Thompson made 32 saves to help Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy pick up his first win over his former team.

    “This is a good win against a really, really good hockey team,” Cassidy said. “But I like the way we want we won. We gutted it out. It's playoff style hockey out there, and we didn't buckle. They deserve a lot of credit.”

    The Golden Knights improved to 24-13-5 on the season. They return to the ice Saturday against the Calgary Flames.
