Golden Knights vs. Maple Leafs Prediction
I’m riding with Toronto here. The Maple Leafs are red hot right now and I’m not stepping in front of them. Vegas is a solid team and it’s tough to pass up plus money with them, but we just saw the Leafs beat up Vegas a few days ago and I don’t think anything changes here. Give me Vegas here.
