Jack Eichel had a goal and an assist and Logan Thompson made 35 saves to pick up his first NHL win, leading the visiting Vegas Golden Knights to a 4–1 win over the San Jose Sharks on Sunday night.
Eichel, obtained in a Nov. 4 trade with Buffalo and playing his third game since undergoing neck surgery on Nov. 12, scored his first goal since Jan. 28, 2021. With Vegas leading 1–0 in the first period, Eichel drove toward the left side of the net, took a behind-the-goal pass from Chandler Stephenson, and then slid a shot past the left pad of James Reimer.
