Philadelphia Flyers vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction
The Vegas Golden Knights are the better team and should be favored, but we’re getting some bang for our buck with a Flyers squad that’s playing decent hockey as of late. We’ve also seen the home team win 6 of the last 8 games between the Golden Knights and Flyers. The Flyers are a feisty team that’s been in a lot of close games lately and overtime contests. That should help build the Flyer’s confidence moving forward. Give me the plus money.
