Watch: Goal stands despite Neal breaking stick on Hellebuyck's mask
by from on (#3EWWN)
The Vegas Golden Knights' historic night didn't come without a little controversy.
Erik Haula's second-period goal was upheld upon review after being challenged by Winnipeg Jets head coach Paul Maurice, who was looking for a goaltender interference call because Golden Knights forward James Neal broke his stick on Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck's mask.
Winnipeg forward Kyle Connor tied the game late in the third period, but Vegas' David Perron won it in overtime to give the Golden Knights the most wins by an expansion team in NHL history.
