NHL Predictions<\/span><\/h2>\n

Dallas Stars vs Vegas Golden Knights<\/h3>\n

Series: Stars 0-1 Golden Knights<\/h4>\n

It’s our only game and an early one in our NHL predictions. Dallas will look to even the series in Las Vegas after an overtime loss. Roope Hintz<\/a> recorded three points while Jason Robertson<\/a> and Joe Pavelski<\/a> also got multiple-point nights. Jake Oettinger<\/a> will likely get the start<\/a> again and made 33 saves in Game 1. However, always check social media before locking in a daily fantasy starter. The Stars only took one penalty in a relatively clean game. Dallas will have to be more careful with the lead if they want to even up the series. However, the Stars are 5-0 after losses this post-season.<\/p>\n

Adin Hill<\/a> will likely get the call once again in goal for the Golden Knights. Hill has been solid since taking over for the injured Laurent Brossoit<\/a> in the second round. Brett Howden<\/a> scored the overtime-winner in goal for the Golden Knights in Game 1. William Karlsson<\/a> scored twice for Vegas and Zach Whitecloud<\/a> handed out two assists. The Golden Knights have really helped out their goalies by playing smart defence. Having a strong defensive forward like Mark Stone<\/a> does help a team in the middle of the ice.<\/p>\n

Vegas has been strong at home, but Dallas has shown the ability to bounce back. However, the Knights get the job done and take a 2-0 series lead.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Golden Knights win 4-2.<\/em><\/p>\n
