Canadiens one win away from Stanley Cup Final after 4-1 win over Golden Knights

Carey Price made 26 saves and Nick Suzuki registered a goal and two assists as the Montreal Canadiens beat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-1 Tuesday night in Las Vegas to move within one win of reaching the Stanley Cup Final.

The Canadiens hold a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven semifinal series. Game 6 will be played Thursday in Montreal.

Jesperi Kotkaniemi, Eric Staal and Cole Caufield also scored goals and Tyler Toffoli added two assists for the Canadiens. Montreal is looking for its first trip to the Stanley Cup Final since 1993, when it defeated Wayne Gretzky and the Los Angeles Kings in five games.
