Golden Knights vs Stars Prediction
The current betting odds have the Stars listed as a slight favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Stars have looked really good in their games this season with their 12-4-1 record overall. They are also 5-3-0 in their home games this year and are leading the Central Division in the Western Conference. The Golden Knights are also leading their Pacific Division in the Western Conference as they were the hottest team to come out of the gate, but lately they have been cooling off while the Stars have become the much hotter team. The Golden Knights lost both of their games over the weekend and were even shut out on Sunday against the Penguins. Meanwhile, the Stars have been red hot lately with their 6-3 wins over the Rangers and the Avalanche in their last 2 games, those 2 teams being some of the best in the league right now. The Stars are getting hot right now and they are going to be motivated to beat the defending Stanley Cup Champions at home. The best way to place a bet here is on the Stars to win this game.
