Brayden McNabb waited 276 days to score a goal.
The Golden Knights defenseman almost had to wait a little bit longer.
McNabb’s wrist shot from the point beat New Jersey Devils goalie Keith Kinkaid with 8:43 left in the second period of the Knights’ 3-2 win Sunday, but the goal was immediately waived off by the referees for goaltender interference. It took a challenge from coach Gerard Gallant to determine forward Ryan Carpenter did not interfere with Kinkaid and give McNabb his first goal since April 5.
“I thought for sure it was going to be no goal,” McNabb said.
