LAS VEGAS — Joel Eriksson Ek scored twice and the Minnesota Wild beat the Vegas Golden Knights 5-3 for their third straight win. Mats Zuccarello, Marco Rossi and Matt Boldy also scored to help Minnesota win for the sixth time in eight games. Filip Gustavsson made 27 saves. Jonathan Marchessault, Michael Amadio and Mark Stone scored for Vegas, while Adin Hill stopped 24 shots. One night after the Super Bowl became the most-watched program in television history up the road at Allegiant Stadium, a sellout crowd of 18,207 inside T-Mobile Arena saw the defending champion Golden Knights lose just their third home game in 2024. The loss spoiled Vegas defenseman Alex Pietrangelo's 1,000th career game. Pietrangelo had two assists.
