I don\u2019t think we got to our game in any respect. We gave them some beauty, and Carter made some massive saves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marner scored an empty-net goal to assist seal the win for his team. It was a key win for Vegas, because the team was playing at home to open the series.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s Game 1. It&#8217;s (about) which team finds its game the quickest that has the advantage,\u201d Golden Knights coach John Tortorella said. \u201cWe\u2019re fortunate. Fortunate that we found a option to win. They played well. A few of it needed to do with them. They played well, but we now have some things to work on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marner finished the sport with two points. He also posted an assist, by sending the puck to Brett Howden who scored a goal within the second period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI used to be just taking a look at Mitch straight away,\u201d Howden said. \u201cHe made an awesome play. I used to be sort of behind the play, and I could feel that he knew I used to be coming late. I used to be going to get there a bit earlier, and he waited it out, and I just tried driving back away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Game 2 of this series is on Wednesday in Las Vegas.
