Mandatory Credit: Bob Frid-Imagn Images Victor Olofsson scored the go-ahead goal with 3:14 remaining to lead the visiting Vegas Golden Knights to a 3-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday night.
William Karlsson set up the game-winner when he carried the puck behind the net and then backhanded a pass to Olofsson alone in the low slot where he snapped a wrist shot past the glove side of Kevin Lankinen and inside the right post.
Ivan Barbashev and Nicolas Roy also scored goals for Vegas (47-22-8, 102 points), which increased its Pacific Division lead to five points over the idle second-place Los Angeles Kings with the win. Adin Hill made 19 saves to pick up his 30th victory of the season.
Nils Hoglander and Aatu Raty scored goals for Vancouver (35-29-13, 83 points), which fell eight points behind the Minnesota Wild (42-29-7, 91 points) with just for the final Western Conference wild-card spot with just five games remaining. Lankinen finished with 32 saves.
Vancouver took a 1-0 lead at the 4:46 mark of the first period when Hoglander, back after missing six games with an undisclosed injury, swept in a rebound of a Pius Suter shot.
Vegas tied it midway through the period when Barbashev took a pass from Mark Stone on the left wing and then cut in front of the net and swept a backhand shot in around Lankinen’s left pad.
Roy gave the Golden Knights a 2-1 lead a few minutes later when the rebound of his slap shot caromed in off the back of the skate of defenseman Victor Mancini.
The Canucks tied it, 2-2, midway through the second period on a rebound goal by Raty in front of the net. Vegas unsuccessfully challenged for goaltender interference when replays showed Raty had bumped into Hill’s glove in the blue paint before Hill made a save on a Filip Hronek shot prior to Raty’s rebound score. The Golden Knights then successfully killed off the ensuing delay of game penalty.

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.

Feb 22, 2026; West Palm Beach, Florida, USA; St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol (37) looks on from inside the dugout against the Houston Astros during the fifth inning at CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches. 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.
