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

Hertl's backhand shot in the first period opened the scoring, and his late heroics capped a tight contest. Penguins goaltender Arturs Silovs made several saves, but Hertl found the net again in the final minute.

Sidney Crosby had a strong game for Pittsburgh, delivering a heavy hit on William Karlsson in the first period. Vegas goaltender Adin Hill also played a key role, stopping multiple chances.

The win improves the Golden Knights' record while the Penguins fall in a closely matched NHL matchup.
