Mark Stone scored two short-handed goals and had two assists and Jack Eichel and William Karlsson also scored two goals apiece as the Vegas Golden Knights extended their season-opening point streak to 12 games with a dominating 7-0 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night in Las Vegas.

Adin Hill made 41 saves for his first shutout of the season and the sixth of his career while also improving to 6-0-1.

Chandler Stephenson and Pavel Dorofeyev each had two assists and William Carrier also scored for Vegas, which improved to a league-best 11-0-1. The point streak is just one shy of the Golden Knights' team record of 13 straight set in their inaugural season (Dec. 13, 2017 to Jan. 2, 2018).

Alexandar Georgiev finished with 27 saves for Colorado, which was blanked for the third consecutive road game while getting outscored 15-0.

Vegas took a 1-0 lead at the 16:50 mark of the first period on a short-handed goal by Stone, who scooped up a rebound of a Brayden McNabb shot near the right side of the crease and chipped it over the glove of a sprawling Georgiev. It was the first short-handed goal of the season for the Golden Knights.

Eichel snapped a six-game goal-less drought to make it 2-0 midway through the second period with a wrist shot from the right circle into the far top corner.

Vegas broke the game open later in the period with two goals in a 52-second span. Carrier got the first with a wrist shot from the slot past Georgiev's blocker side. Eichel followed with a power-play goal, roofing a one-timer from one knee in the middle of the left circle off a crossing pass from Stone.

Stone then made it 5-0 at the 3:22 mark of the third period with his second short-handed goal of the game and the ninth of his career, poking the puck away in the neutral zone and then going in and firing a wrist shot past Georgiev's blocker side.

Karlsson extended his personal point streak to nine, tying a team record, midway through the period when he rifled a wrist shot five-hole from the right circle and then scored his sixth goal of the season on a rebound with 5:17 left to conclude the scoring.
