Adrian Kempe and Trevor Moore scored during the shootout and the Los Angeles Kings spoiled Pavel Dorofeyev's hat trick and Mitch Marner's debut in a Vegas uniform with a 6-5 win over the Golden Knights.

Our Kings vs. Golden Knights predictions believe Mitch Marner will make an immediate impact with the Vegas vs. Los Angeles on Wednesday.

The Golden Knights locked up Marner on an eight-year, $96 million contract ($12 million average annual value) when they acquired him from the Toronto Maple Leafs in a sign-and-trade on July 1. Before the game Wednesday, they signed Eichel to an eight-year, $108 million contract ($13.5 million AAV) that starts next season.

It was a strong start to the Mitch Marner era in Las Vegas as the Golden Knights new star winger tallied two points in his debut. Marner assisted on two third-period goals that broke a tie and then gave the Golden Knights a two-score lead. However, the Los Angeles Kings scored twice later on in the third period and won 6-5 in the shootout.

The Mitch Marner era of Vegas hockey begins Wednesday night when the defending Pacific Division champion Golden Knights open their season against the Los Angeles Kings in Las Vegas.
