return to Toronto.
Jack Eichel Pavel Dorofeyev, Braeden Bowman and Keegan Kolesar also scored for
Vegas. Adin Hill made 18 saves, and Ivan Barbashev had three assists.

Stolarz stopped 25 shots in his return from an upper-body injury.
Playing in the second of a back-to-back, Vegas won for the first time in three
contests following a seven-game winning streak, including a 6-5 overtime
victory over the Maple Leafs last week.
Toronto has dropped three in a row and five of six.
