Anaheim Ducks vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction, Odds and Stanley Cup Playoffs Game 1 Picks for Today, 05/04/26

The Anaheim Ducks and Vegas Golden Knights will be meeting in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs on Monday. The Ducks managed to sweep the head-to-head season series, winning all 3 of the games. All 3 games finished with a final score of 4-3. The Golden Knights seem to be a different team in the playoffs, though, as they are back to their dominant, difficult-to-play-against ways. Their offense was clicking in their first-round matchup with the Utah Mammoth, as they scored 4 or more goals in 4 of the 6 games. There was no shortage of offense in the Ducks’ first-round series. Five of the 6 games went over the total. They only scored fewer than 3 goals once.

Both teams are averaging at least 3 goals against per game in the 2026 playoffs. The Golden Knights are averaging 3.83, while the Ducks are scoring 4.33. I think we will see a high-scoring game on Monday with both teams playing loose, as it is Game 1 of the series without too much pressure. Give me the over in this one.
