Utah Hockey Club vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction
The Utah Hockey Club has played their best hockey at home, but they’ve also had issues sustaining success and have been shut out three times in their last 10 games. The Vegas Golden Knights are simply the more trustworthy side, and their offense doesn’t go in a hole out of nowhere. Vegas also beat Utah 4-3 in overtime a couple of weeks ago. I’d need more bang for my buck to side with the Utah Hockey Club. Give me the Golden Knights and the cheap price.
