I’m on the Vegas Golden Knights in this game. I know that the Rangers have started to pick up wins here and there, but I still think that Vegas is the better team and the team playing far better hockey coming into this matchup. Vegas still has one of the best home records in the NHL as well, and I just think that in the end, home ice propels the Golden Knights to the win here in this one. Give me Vegas on the ML.
