The Vegas Golden Knights made some noise on the ice and in the record books Monday night.
Vegas defeated the Winnipeg Jets 3-1 to tie the series at one game apiece, and in doing so, Jonathan Marchessault, Reilly Smith, and Marc-Andre Fleury each hit milestones.
- With two goals, Marchessault tied the NHL record for most points in a single postseason by a player on an expansion team.
- Smith picked up two assists to equal the NHL record for most assists by a player on a team in its first-ever postseason.
- Fleury recorded his 71st career playoff win to go level with Jacques Plante for ninth on the NHL's all-time playoff wins list.
Jonathan Marchessault of the @GoldenKnights scored twice to boost his totals to 6-9—15 in the 2018 #StanleyCup Playoffs.

The series will now shift to Vegas where the trio will look to further pad their stats and create some daylight between the two teams.
