LAS VEGAS – Jack Eichel, Ivan Barbashev and Shea Theodore each scored a goal and an assist to lead the Vegas Golden Knights to a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Friday night.

Nicolas Roy, playing in his 300th career game, scored the Golden Knights' other goal and Mark Stone had two assists. Adin Hill made 19 saves.

Pavel Buchnevich totaled two goals and an assist for the Blues – who lost for the first time this season after winning their first two – and Robert Thomas had the other goal. Jordan Kyrou recorded two assists and Jordan Binnington made 24 stops.

Mathieu and Pierre-Olivier Joseph became the first brothers to play in a game for the Blues since Rich and Ron Sutter in 1993. They are the seventh pair of brothers in the club.
