Predators vs Golden Knights Prediction

I’m on Vegas here. Just when you think that Nashville might be turning a corner and finally living up to the expectations that a lot of folks had for this team coming into the season, with all of the moves that were made, they regress right back to the team we’ve all expected them to be. The Golden Knights have times where they stumble, but overall they’re the more consistent of the two sides here, and getting them at this kind of price feels like a gift but it’s one I’ll gladly accept. Give me the Golden Knights in this one.
