Prediction

The Rangers have been playing much better lately and have won 6 of their last 7 games scoring an average of 4.5 goals per game on that strecht but already lost against the Golden Knights earlier this season at home. The Golden Knights are having a hell of a season and are the only team undefeated at home with a 12-0 in Las Vegas. The Rangers will be playing on back to back games while the Golden Knights are well rested and it's really hard to go against them at home. Take the Golden Knights.
