Marcus Foligno pushed it to 2-0 at 11:35, scoring from the top of the crease off a centering pass from Ryan Hartman, who was behind the net.

Mats Zuccarello made it 3-0 at 17:15. Theodore whiffed on a pass near his blue, which allowed Marcus Johansson to steal the puck and send a backhand pass to Zuccarello, who skated in and beat Hill with a shot that snuck under his glove.

Kaprizov made it 4-0 at 3:59 of the second period. Following another turnover by Theodore, Kaprizov skated in on a 2-on-1 and scored with a shot that trickled under Hill’s pads from the left circle.

Boldy had the primary assist on the play, marking the fourth time so far in this series that the two have connected on a goal.

“They’re playing north and direct, they’re highly competitive on the puck,” Hynes said. “That’s what makes those guys good. When you’re highly talented guys like those two guys are and they’re committed to play the game that’s required to win, then they’re able to be big impacts.”

Hanifin scored for the Golden Knights to make it 4-1 at 12:04 of the second. Nicolas Roy had the puck poked off his stick by Zeev Buium, but Hanifin skated right into and quickly scored glove side from the high slot.
