Edmonton Oilers vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction

I’m on the Oilers here. I think the Golden Knights are the better team, but they’ve been horrendous on the road so far this season and while those issues won’t last for the whole season, it’s something that keeps popping up, and Edmonton has started to pick up their play in recent games. I think that Edmonton defends home ice here. Give me the Oilers.
