SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) --- Tomas Hertl had two goals and three assists, Jack
Eichel also scored twice and the Vegas Golden Knights beat San Jose 7-2 on
Sunday night, ending young Sharks star Macklin Celebrini's points streak at 13
games.
Vegas won its fourth straight game, completing a back-to-back after beating St.
Louis 4-2 at home Saturday night.
Pavel Dorofeyev had a goal and an assist, Zach Whitecloud and Shea Theodore
also scored, and Carl Lindbom stopped 18 shots. Mark Stone had two assists, but
his goals streak ended at team record-tying seven games.

made 26 saves. San Jose also played Saturday, beating Dallas 5-4 at home in
overtime.
Eichel opened the scoring at 7:19 of the first period, and Dorofeyev scored his
17th goal of the season on a power play with 9:03 to go in the period.
Vegas added three goals in the second period, including a power-play goal by
Hertl, his 17th of the season, with nine minutes remaining.

his second of the night.
