Dallas Stars vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction

The Dallas Stars have been the better team overall this season, and they have the momentum after winning two games in Vegas to get back in the series. However, the value remains with the Vegas Golden Knights and the plus money. The Vegas Golden Knights are a roster full of champions who know how to win in these spots, and the road team has won all 4 games in this series. In fact, the road team has won 8 of the last 9 games between the Golden Knights and Stars. Again the Stars should be favored at home where 26-13-4 on the year, but I’m looking at the plus money especially with how the road team has owned the previous meetings. Give me Vegas.
