LAS VEGAS — After veteran goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury allowed 17 goals in four straight starts, the Vegas Golden Knights’ Malcolm Subban took over the crease for just the eighth time this season. Subban made 29 saves, Max Pacioretty scored twice and the Golden Knights defeated the Nashville Predators 5-1 on Saturday. Nashville came into the game ranked fourth in the NHL in goals-against per game (2.57) and seventh in shots allowed per game (29.4). But Lindberg pushed the lead to 4-1 when he fired the puck through the legs of Nashville forward Colton Sissons and past Saros. … Tuch, the Golden Knights leader in points with 41 points, snapped a seven-game drought with his assist on Lindberg’s goal.
