Left wing Reilly Smith scored twice, and the Golden Knights defeated the Chicago Blackhawks, 4-1, at United Center on Thursday.
The win was the Knights’ NHL-leading 14th on the road. It was also rookie goaltender Logan Thompson’s 14th, tied for the third-most in the league.
Smith’s first goal was his NHL-leading fourth short-handed. The Minnesota Wild are the only team besides the Knights that have more short-handed goals than Smith has on his own.
