Nicolas Roy scored twice to highlight a four-goal second period for the visiting Vegas Golden Knights, who went on to score a 5-4 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Friday night.

It was the first two-goal game of Roy's career. Vegas' Michael Amadio had a goal and two assists for the first three-point game of his career, and Jonathan Marchessault and Ben Hutton also scored.

Laurent Brossoit made 20 saves for the Golden Knights, who won for the 20th time in 24 all-time meetings against the Ducks.

Jakob Silfverberg, Nicolas Deslauriers, Trevor Zegras and Troy Terry scored goals and Cam Fowler had two assists for Anaheim, which took its seventh loss in the past 10 games (3-6-1). John Gibson finished with 30 saves.

Anaheim jumped out to a 1-0 lead at the 4:47 mark of the first period. Silfverberg snapped an 11-game goalless drought, firing a shot from the right corner near the goal line that caromed in off Brossoit's skate.

Vegas tied it 2:13 later when Hutton banged in a wrist shot off the left post from the slot for his second goal of the season and his 100th career point.

The Golden Knights, who entered the contest having scored just 15 goals over their past eight games, exploded for four goals in the second period while building a 5-3 lead.

Marchessault started the assault 18 seconds into the period with his 23rd goal of the season to make it 2-1.

Deslauriers tied it with a one-timer off a Fowler setup at the 2:23 mark before the Golden Knights answered with three consecutive goals. The first two were by Roy, who snapped a 15-game goalless streak. Amadio made it 5-2 when he redirected a Chandler Stephenson shot into the right side of the net at 9:44.

The Ducks cut the deficit to 5-3 at the 18:38 mark on a power-play goal by Zegras. He roofed a Rickard Rakell pass from the right circle for his 15th goal of the season.

At 6:39 of the third period, Terry backhanded a shot past Brossoit's blocker for his team-best 28th goal to make it 5-4.

The Ducks pulled Gibson with 1:40 remaining but managed just a Ryan Getzlaf shot that Brossoit saved.
