William Karlsson scored two goals and had an assist as the Vegas Golden Knights advanced to their second Stanley Cup Final
Instead of having to face a do-or-die Game 7 at home against the Stars, coach Bruce Cassidy and the Knights got off to another fast start and never left any doubt about the outcome of this series that included three overtime games.
Karlsson’s power-play goal came midway through the first period made it 2-0, and after a penalty that likely had prevented him from scoring. With the man advantage, Reilly Smith took a shot from the circle to the left, which was deflected in front by Roy and then off Oettinger’s extended skate before Karlsson knocked in the rebound.
Oettinger had been 3-0 when the Stars were facing elimination this postseason, including Game 7 in the second round against Seattle before stopping 64 of 68 shots the past two games against the Knights.
