Jonathan Marchessault scored on Las Vegas' only shot of overtime, giving the host Golden Knights in a 2-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday.

It was a tremendous one-man effort for Marchessault 3:21 into the extra session. He forced a turnover in the Golden Knights' end of the rink, then skated down the ice on a partial breakaway, outracing Philadelphia's Kevin Hayes before depositing a backhand shot for the game-winner.

Marchessault scored in his fourth consecutive game, giving him 12 goals on the season.

William Carrier provided the only other goal for Vegas, which improved to 6-1 in overtime/shootouts this season. Adin Hill stopped 27 of 28 shots for his seventh win in 10 starts this season.

Despite stopping 32 of 34 shots, Flyers goalie Carter Hart took a hard-luck defeat. Hart made several big stops, including a spectacular stick save to deny Carrier late in the third period.

Scott Laughton scored Philadelphia's only goal, ending his personal 16-game goal drought.

The Flyers are 2-10-4 in their past 16 games and 0-3-4 in their past seven road games.

It was the ninth time this season that the struggling Flyers scored one or fewer goals in a game, and they are 0-7-2 in those contests.

Carrier deposited a rebound to open the scoring 11:45 into the first period, collecting his ninth goal. Through 28 games, Carrier already has matched his highest goal total from any of his previous six NHL seasons.

The Flyers equalized at 1:47 of the second period thanks to a poor clearance from Hill. Laughton intercepted Hill's awkward pass attempt behind the net, and Laughton then scored after deflecting the puck off Hill as the netminder scrambled to get back into position.

Golden Knights defenseman Shea Theodore didn't return after a leg-to-leg collision with Flyers defenseman Travis Sanheim in overtime.
