Marner Hat Trick Silences Honda Center as Knights Take Game 3 · May 8, 2026
Vegas bounced back from a rough Game 2 with a dominant 6-2 win at Honda Center to take a 2-1 series lead in the Western Conference Semifinals. Mitch Marner was the story, delivering a natural hat trick and an assist for four points — Vegas' best postseason performance since 2019. The Knights stormed to a 3-0 lead after one, chasing Lukas Dostál after eight shots, and never let Anaheim find any footing. Shea Theodore, Brayden McNabb on a shorty, and Brett Howden into an empty net rounded out the scoring. Carter Hart turned aside 31 shots.
