NEWARK, N.J. — The Vegas Golden Knights broke their four-game losing streak with a solid 3-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Thursday night, with Adin Hill stepping up to make 16 saves. This win also marked just their second road victory since January 7.

Nicolas Roy ignited the scoring for Vegas, netting his seventh goal of the season just over three minutes into the second period, establishing a 1-0 lead. Shea Theodore doubled the advantage by scoring his seventh goal at the 11:18 mark of the same period. Jack Eichel extended the lead further in the third period with his 19th goal, making it 3-0 just over four minutes into the third.

The lone goal for New Jersey came from Ondrej Palat, who found the back of the net at 15:43 in the third period, scoring his 12th goal on a power play opportunity. Assists on that goal were provided by Stefan Noesen and Jesper Bratt. The Devils recently celebrated a shootout win against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday, but they now find themselves with a record of 2-3-0 over their last five games.

Prior to this match, Vegas had struggled with a 1-3-2 record in their previous six games, facing defeats against the Rangers and Islanders as they began their current road trip. The Devils were without their captain, Nico Hischier, who missed his fifth game after suffering from a cross-check by Nick Suzuki of Montreal on January 25. Meanwhile, defenseman Simon Nemec made his return to the NHL for the first time since October 22 after being recalled from the AHL’s Utica Comets.

Devils goalie Allen recorded 36 saves during the contest but fell to 8-11-1 for the season.
