Vegas Golden Knights vs Anaheim Ducks prediction

The Anaheim Ducks have been a losing machine for the last month or so, and they’re even worse at home, where they’re 5-12-0 on the season. The Vegas Golden Knights are the same team no matter where they play, and they have a clear advantage at both ends of the ice. While the Ducks did beat Vegas back in early November, it’s the Golden Knights that have beaten the Ducks in 7 of the last 10 meetings, and 5 of those wins were decided by 2 or more goals. Give me Vegas and the somewhat reasonable price.
