Jonathan Marchessault scored 49 seconds into overtime and the Golden Knights defeated the St. Louis Blues 2-1 at Enterprise Center on Monday.

The goal was Marchessault’s 39th of the season. He scored 19 seconds after goaltender Logan Thompson stopped Blues forward Pavel Buchnevich on a penalty shot.

Left wing Pavel Dorofeyev also scored for the Knights (39-25-7), who have won three straight games for the first time since Jan. 15-20.

Thompson made 30 saves for his third consecutive victory.

 

The victory pushes the Knights’ lead in the Western Conference wild-card race to five points over the Blues.
