Vegas Golden Knights forward Tomas Hertl scored his second goal of the game with 32 seconds remaining in regulation to secure a 3-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night at PPG Paints Arena.

Hertl opened the scoring in the first period with a backhand shot past Penguins goaltender Arturs Silovs. The game remained tight throughout, with Pittsburgh's Sidney Crosby and Vegas' William Karlsson engaging in physical play. Golden Knights goaltender Adin Hill made key saves and took a timeout during the second period to settle his team.

With the game tied 2-2 late in the third period, Hertl found the net again to give Vegas the lead and ultimately the win. The victory improves the Golden Knights' record on the road, while the Penguins fall in a close contest at home.
