Mammoth vs Golden Knights Prediction
I’m on the under in this game. I just think you have two teams that are struggling to find the back of hte net right now, and two teams that are dying for a win to get the train back on the tracks. This shouts another 3-2 game for Utah, whether they win or lose is another story, but I think we have a low-scoring duel here, so give me the under.
