Already after the first third things are pretty clear: Carrick (3rd), Lafreniere (18th) and Kreider (20th) ensure a 3-0 lead before the first half-time siren. Another goal from Cuylle is disallowed after a trainer challenge (10th).
The Penguins got into the game better in the second period, but Shesterkin ruined promising attempts. On the other side, Chytil made the preliminary decision (30th).
The final third was similar, Kreider crowned a strong performance and made it 5-0 with a shorthander (52nd). Trocheck also scored in the last minutes (57th).
Montreal celebrates in a close Canada duel
The Montreal Canadiens also have reason to be happy about a successful start. They surprisingly won the domestic Canadian duel against the Toronto Maple Leafs with a narrow 1-0.
Caufield scored the final gold goal in the first third in the power play (8th). As the game continues, the Maple Leafs run in vain. Canadiens goalie Montembeault played a large part in the prestigious success, as he was able to thwart all 45 attempts by Matthews & Co.
Torfestival in Las Vegas
The fans in Las Vegas experienced a score-filled evening with no fewer than 12 goals, where the Golden Knights won 8-4 against the Colorado Avalanche.
