Mark Stone gets Golden Knights past Avalanche in OT for pivotal Game 5 win

Mark Stone scored 50 seconds into overtime, and the Vegas Golden Knights beat the Colorado Avalanche 3-2 in overtime of Game 5 of their West Division second-round series in Denver on Tuesday night.

“I had a couple big shot blocks right before that,” Stone said. “Sometimes when the D-man shoots it like that, they get flat-footed. Just took off, fortunate to end the game.”

Alex Tuch and Jonathan Marchessault also scored and Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 28 shots for the Golden Knights, who lead the series 3-2 following their third consecutive victory.

Game 6 is Thursday night in Las Vegas.
