Evgenii Dadonov scores huge OT winner for Vegas to complete comeback win (w/video)

It's hard to figure out why Vegas wanted to get rid of him. In two games since he was traded to Anaheim only to have the exchange voided by the NHL because of his no-trade clause, Evgenii Dadonov now has 5 points, including a huge overtime winner on Saturday as the Golden Knights came back from a 3-0 deficit to beat the Chicago Blackhawks 5-4. Vegas is struggling to stay in playoff position in the West, and these two points are big ones with little time left to go in the season. Vegas must be thanking their lucky stars right now that the trade didn't go through as planned.

This was the first time Vegas had come back from a three goal deficit to win a game in the team's five year history.

Vegas tried to ditch Dadonov in order to clear cap space. That's still going to be an issue for the team. However, some moves have been made in an attempt to alleviate that issue.
