Oilers rally past Golden Knights in Game 1
May 6, 2025; Las Vegas, Nevada, USA; Edmonton Oilers right wing Corey Perry (90) scores a goal against Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Adin Hill (33) during the first period of game one of the second round of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs at T-Mobile Arena. Mandatory Credit: Stephen R. Sylvanie-Imagn Images Zach Hyman scored the go-ahead goal with 3:02 remaining and Connor Brown sealed the win 76 seconds later as the Edmonton Oilers rallied to defeat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-2 in Game 1 of the Western Conference second round on Tuesday night in Las Vegas.
Hyman buried a wrist shot from the slot past goalie Adin Hll’s glove side for the game-winner — his third tally of the playoffs.
Brown added his fourth goal when he deked defenseman Shea Theodore at the blue line, broke down the slot and fired a wrist shot past Hill’s glove side. That completed the Oilers’ fifth straight comeback victory in the playoffs.
Leon Draisaitl had a goal and an assist, Connor McDavid and Evan Bouchard each had two assists and Corey Perry also scored for Edmonton, which had a four-game playoff winning streak snapped. Calvin Pickard finished with 15 saves.
Mark Stone scored both goals and Hill made 24 saves for Vegas, which had a streak of five Game 1 playoff wins snapped. Stone moved into a tie with Jonathan Marchessault for the franchise record with 36 postseason goals.
Vegas took a 1-0 lead at the 2:13 mark of the first period on a power-play goal by Stone. Vegas took advantage of an early double-minor penalty on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for high-sticking Tomas Hertl along the end boards.
The score came on a double deflection of Theodore’s point shot, which changed direction off the stick of William Karlsson and then deflected off Stone’s stick, clanged off the left post and went into the net.
Stone made it 2-0 midway through the period with a wrist shot from the low slot five-hole. It came off Jack Eichel’s pass.
The Oilers cut the deficit to 2-1 near the end of the period when Perry took a pass from McDavid by the left side of the crease and then wrapped a wrist shot around Hill’s left pad. It was his third goal of the playoffs.
Edmonton dominated a scoreless second period, outshooting the Golden Knights 12-1, but couldn’t take advantage of two power plays. Adam Henrique had the best chance to tie it, but his wrist shot from the high slot caromed off the crossbar.
The Oilers tied it 2-2 just 57 seconds into the third period when Draisaitl, behind the goal line, backhanded a rebound of Bouchard’s shot that banked in off the back of Hill’s right leg. It was his fourth goal of the playoffs.

Hannah Green wins her 2nd HSBC Women's World Championship
Aug 21, 2025; Mississauga, Ontario, CAN; Hannah Green plays her tee shot at the third hole during first round play at the CPKC Women’s Open golf tournament. Mandatory Credit: Dan Hamilton-Imagn Images Australia’s Hannah Green held off Auston Kim on Sunday to win the HSBC Women’s World Championship in Singapore for the second time.
Green, the 2024 champion, balanced three birdies and three bogeys on an eventful back nine to finish with a 3-under 69 and a final score of 14-under at Sentosa Golf Club. The 2019 Women’s PGA Championship winner tapped in for bogey at the 18th for her seventh LPGA Tour title.
“When I did win Singapore two years ago, I went on to win two other tournaments that season and pretty much had my best season on tour,” said Green, 29. “So having a win so early in the season gives me a bit more flexibility with the tournaments that I can play. So I’m hoping that this puts me in good stead for the rest of the year.”
Green was at 16-under after birdies at the first, 11th and 13th holes and an eagle at the par-5 eighth hole. Her birdie at the par-3 15th helped her survive a bogey-bogey finish.
“I knew that I had enough of a lead to be able to get away with making mistakes coming down the stretch. But I think 15 was the real turning point,” she said.
First- and second-round leader Kim nearly chased down her first title, matching the low round of the day with a 67 to finish one shot behind Green in the 72-hole, no-cut tournament.
Kim carded six birdies and an eagle at No. 8, but a bogey at the par-3 15th proved costly for the 25-year-old American.
“Overall, I think it was a really solid week,” Kim said. “A great way to start the year. I hit a lot of bad shots but I also hit a lot of good ones, and it was really confidence boosting. I hit all these bad shots, and I didn’t feel like I had anything chose to my A game, but I was still able it pull off a result like this and play some really solid golf.”
Australia’s Minjee Lee (72 on Sunday), Angel Yin (71) and France’s Pauline Roussin-Bouchard (68) tied for third place at 11-under with South Korea’s Haeran Ryu (72) another shot back in solo sixth.
World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul of Thailand finished with a 73 and tied for 31st at 2-under, one shot behind defending champion Lydia Ko (72) of New Zealand.

Mandatory Credit: Sam Navarro-Imagn Images St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol received a two-year contract extension through the 2028 season, the team announced Sunday.
Financial terms were not disclosed by the team, which holds an option for the 2029 season.
“As I’ve gotten to know Oli, I’ve seen someone who cares about this organization and knows what has made the Cardinals special over time — and who understands that for us to get where we need to go, we must compete relentlessly to set new standards in everything that we do,” president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom said.
“He is invested in the progress of our young core and is unafraid to challenge himself and to help those around him grow. I am energized to continue working with him towards the on-field success that we expect and that our fans deserve.”
Marmol, 39, has guided the Cardinals to a 325-323 record during his four seasons as the skipper. He led St. Louis to the National League Central title in 2022 before the team fell in the wild-card series to the Philadelphia Phillies.
Last season, the Cardinals posted a 78-84 record to finish in fourth place in the NL Central.
Marmol was a coach with St. Louis from 2017-21 under previous managers Mike Shildt and Mike Matheny.
