Las Vegas are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against Anaheim.

Las Vegas are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games on the road.

Anaheim are 10-0 SU in their last 10 games at home.

 

Prediction

The Golden Knights 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 Ducks earlier this season at home. The Ducks are having a hell of a season and are the only team undefeated at home with a 12-0 in Anaheim. The Golden Knights will be playing on back to back games while the Ducks are well rested and it's really hard to go against them at home. Take the Ducks.
