Mark Stone is the hero for the Vegas Golden Knights. The man just always comes up huge for the team and that continued on Tuesday night. With things tied between Vegas and Colorado late, someone needed to step up.

Stone did just that, as he scored 50 seconds into overtime to give the Golden Knights a thrilling 3-2 victory.

Whoa. While Colorado was considered a monster favorite leading up to the series, the Golden Knights are now on the verge of eliminating them from the Stanley Cup postseason. Should they get the job done, we'll definitely look back to this Stone goal.
