Game 6 shifts to Anaheim on Thursday night with Vegas one win from the Western Conference Final after taking a 3-2 series lead.
A 3-2 overtime win in Game 5 put the Golden Knights in control, with Pavel Dorofeyev scoring twice including the winner 4:10 into OT, Jack Eichel adding two assists and Carter Hart making 34 saves.
Anaheim still forced overtime in that game on Olen Zellweger’s late equalizer, and Beckett Sennecke enters Game 6 after scoring in four straight playoff games.
Vegas will try to close out the series without Brayden McNabb, who was suspended one game for a late hit on Ryan Poehling, potentially giving the Ducks more room to attack at Honda Center.
