Red Wings-Golden Knights Best Bet
Vegas has just completed a challenging road trip and is now back on home ice with an impressive record of 25-7-3. They’re eager to extend their lead in the Pacific Division.
Although the Red Wings urgently need a win to stay competitive with the teams above them in the Atlantic Division, this is not a good spot for them.
There is definitely a revenge factor in play here. The Golden Knights have not forgotten last week’s shoutout loss to the Red Wings.
Best Bet: Golden Knights to win in regulation at -140 odds
