ST. LOUIS — Jonathan Marchessault scored 49 seconds into overtime and the Vegas Golden Knights beat the St. Louis Blues 2-1 for their third straight win. Pavel Dorofeyev also scored and Logan Thompson stopped 30 shots to help Vegas win for the sixth time in its last eight games. The Golden Knights moved five points ahead of the Blues for the final Western Conference wild card. Brandon Saad scored and Jordan Binnington finished with 32 saves for St. Louis, which had won two straight games and five of its last seven. Just 19 seconds after the Blues' Pavel Buchnevich was stopped on a penalty shot, Marchessault picked up a loose puck behind the Blues' net, brought it out on the left side and settled it before firing his 39th goal of the season past Binnington.
