Golden Knights’ Reilly Smith savors first point since return

Reilly Smith sounded like a man happy to be back on the score sheet Saturday morning.

The Golden Knights forward was held without a point in his first three games since returning from an undisclosed injury, but Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings, he picked up an assist in a 4-3 win.

Smith drove hard to the net, fired a backhand shot and created a rebound that teammate Jonathan Marchessault buried to give the Knights a 3-1 lead with 9:38 left in the second period.

Smith then had two assists in the first period Saturday night against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
