The Golden Knights are playing consistent hockey at the moment which includes winning on the road as they’re an experienced team that knows this is the time to turn things up. The Nashville Predators are all but out of the playoff race, and they’ve had no success against Vegas in past meetings. Hard to turn down the Golden Knights and the cheap price.
