Roy opened the scoring at 3:16 of the second period when Eric Staal gave the puck away in front of Carey Price, allowing Roy to fire it up and into the net.

The Golden Knights had two power play opportunities in the second frame but were unable to score with the man advantage. They are 0-for-4 in the game.
