NHL Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions: Golden Knights vs. Avalanche
Vegas Golden Knights (+138) vs. Colorado Avalanche (-166) | o/u 6 (-118/-104)
The Golden Knights are not playing with that same dominance from earlier in the season. A big reason is that they are missing several players from both the blue line and forward unit.
This also goes for the defending champion Avalanche. They saw Nathan McKinnon back on the ice after an 11-game absence. However, they are missing Gabriel Landeskog and Darren Helm up front, Josh Manson and Bowen Byram on the blue line and Pavel Francouz behind the net.
Even with the injuries, Vegas has looked solid and have been able to grind out some wins. The Avs, on the other hand, have given significant minutes to their top players, and they’ve looked sluggish. The Golden Knights will grab this road win.
Pick: Golden Knights ML (+138)
