LAS VEGAS (AP) — Jack Eichel, Ivan Barbashev and Shea Theodore each had a goal and an assist on Friday night to lead the Vegas Golden Knights to a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues.

Nicolas Roy, playing in his 300th career game, scored the other Golden Knights goal, and Mark Stone had two assists. Adin Hill made 19 saves.

Pavel Buchnevich totaled two goals and an assist for the Blues — who lost for the first time this season after winning their first two — and Robert Thomas had the other goal. Jordan Kyrou recorded two assists, and Jordan Binnington made 24 stops.

Mathieu and Pierre-Olivier Joseph became the first brothers to play for the Blues in a game since Rich and Ron Sutter in 1993. They are the seventh pair of brothers of play for the club.

Blues: St. Louis is proving to be a tough out. The Blues played the second of a back-to-back and third game in four days — all on the road. They overcame multigoal deficits to win their first two, and fell behind 3-1 in the second period Friday. Twice, the Blues trimmed the lead to a goal.

Golden Knights: The top line of Barbashev, Eichel and Stone hand in five goals in the season-opening 8-4 victory over Colorado on Wednesday and against the Blues were responsible for two more goals.

The Golden Knights for the second game in a row fell behind in the first period before quickly answering. After Buchnevich scored at 6:47, Eichel responded 1:15 later, taking Barbashev's pass on a 2-on-2 rush.

12 — The number of goals the Golden Knights have scored through two games.

The Blues play their first home game when Minnesota visits Tuesday, the first of four straight at home. The Golden Knights play the last of a three-game homestand when Anaheim comes to town Sunday.
