- At 4:10 PM ET on Saturday, we will be playing the money-line on the Vegas Golden Knights (3) versus the Minnesota Wild (4) in the Quarterfinals of their Western Conference series. THE SITUATION: Vegas (51-24-10) has lost two games in a row after their 5-2 loss on the road against the Wild on Thursday. Minnesota (47-31-7) has won two games in a row to take a 2-1 lead in this best-of-seven series.
REASONS TO TAKE THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS WITH THE MONEY-LINE: Vegas has been outscored by a 10-4 margin in the last two games of this series — but they have won 9 of their last 14 games after losing two games in a row. And while they have played three straight Overs, they have then won 4 games in a row after playing three or more Overs in a row. Goalie Adin Hill allowed four goals on 21 shots on Thursday — but he should steady the ship tonight. In his 22 games in the postseason in his career, he has a 2.31 Goals-Against-Average and a .922 save percentage. The Golden Knights have won 12 of their last 19 road games with the Total set at 5.5 including seven of those 11 games this season. Minnesota has lost 7 of their last 11 games after a win at home by three or more goals. Goalie Filip Gustavsson stopped 30 of the 32 shots he faced in the victory. But Gustavsson entered the playoffs with a 3.11 GAA and a .886 save percentage in his final six regular season games. The Wild have lost 19 of their last 29 games at home as an underdog. They have lost 14 of their last 20 games at home against teams with a winning percentage in the 51-60% range including eight of those 12 games this season. And while the Golden Knights outshoot their opponents by +4.2 shots per game, Minnesota has lost 12 of their last 16 home games against teams who outshoot their opponents by +3.5 or more shots per game.
FINAL TAKE: Vegas has won 31 of their last 43 games when avenging a loss on the road including 15 of those 22 games this season. 25* National Hockey League Game of the Month is with the money-line on the Vegas Golden Knights (3) versus the Minnesota Wild (4). Best of luck for us — Frank.
