Vegas Golden Knights vs. St. Louis Blues Prediction
I’m on the Golden Knights in this one. I get the case to be made for either side in this game as Vegas has been a different team outside of Sin City. However, I still think the Golden Knights are the better team and they’ve also owned the head-to-head against St. Louis recently, winning 6 of the last 8 meetings between these two teams.
