Vegas Golden Knights vs Colorado Avalanche

Head-to-Head: Golden Knights 0-2 Avalanche

How to Watch: US TV: ABC; ESPN+. Canada TV: Sportsnet+.

Time: 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)

Our last game of NHL predictions is a big matchup between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Colorado Avalanche. Adin Hill is the expected starter for the Golden Knights. However, always check social media before picking a daily fantasy starter. Vegas is 5-2-3 in its last 10 games and Jack Eichel is first in points with 83.

Mackenzie Blackwood is the projected starter for Colorado, which is 7-3 in the last 10 games. The President’s Trophy winners have victories in three of its last four games. Nathan MacKinnon is making his case for the Hart Trophy with 126 points.

Vegas has struggled to keep Colorado off the scoreboard. The Avs should continue that trend.

Prediction: Avalanche win 5-3.

Best Bets

We close out NHL predictions with some prop bets of the night. Let’s go back to our featured game for our preferred props. The over/under for the Habs versus the Blue Jackets is 6.5, and we like the over in this game.

As far as individual props, take Kirill Marchenko to score for Columbus. On the Montreal side of things, go with Nick Suzuki to get at least a point.
