Head-to-Head: Golden Knights 1-0 Rangers

How to Watch:

U.S. TV: Scripps Vegas; MSG; NHL Network

Time: 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)

Our last game of NHL predictions has the Vegas Golden Knights going for the season sweep over the New York Rangers. Vegas is expected to go with Akira Schmid in goal for this game. The Golden Knights are 5-2-3 in the last 10 games, but did get wins in their last three games. Jack Eichel is first on the team in assists (23) and points (34) for the Golden Knights.

Jonathan Quick might be in goal for the Rangers in his first start coming back from injury. He was activated off injured reserve on Saturday and will get the call after Igor Shesterkin started in a loss to the Avalanche. The Blueshirts are 5-4-1 in the last 10 games, but did win five of those in the last seven games. Artemi Panarin is first in assists (21) and points (31), and tied with Mika Zibanejad for the team’s lead in goals with 10.

The Rangers are coming off a loss on Saturday afternoon against the Avs. Vegas should get the win at MSG.

Prediction: Golden Knights win 3-2.
