Jack Eichel scored twice in the final 4:59 to help the Vegas Golden Knights beat the Carolina Hurricanes 6-3 on Tuesday night.

First Eichel forced a turnover on Taylor Hall's pass near the blue line, then took Ivan Barbashev's pass and went the other way to beat Frederik Andersen for a 4-3 lead.

Minutes later, Eichel — celebrating his 29th birthday — finished another feed from Barbashev to make it 5-3 with roughly 2 1/2 minutes left.

Tomas Hertl added an empty-net clincher as Vegas closed out a second win against Carolina in nine days.

Pavel Dorofeyev scored twice in the first period for Vegas, the second coming on the power play, and Brett Howden had a backhand-forehand finish on Andersen to tie it at 3 early in the third.

Akira Schmid had 21 saves for Vegas.
