Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 10/20/25

The Vegas Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes hit the ice for a major matchup to kick off a new NHL week. The last of five Monday games, these team play in what should be the best game of the night. Combined, these two powerhouses have combined for a 9-0-2 record. This game presents a major early test for each team, so we should be in for an elite matchup. To get an idea on the betting side of things, here are our Hurricanes vs. Golden Knights predictions.

At 5-0-0, Carolina has obviously been perfect. While I think they have a great chance to win, this could be their first loss of the season. They are playing in their fourth-straight road game, fourth of six, and have not had a home game since October 11th. This could affect their energy level and comfort, especially in a building as tough as Vegas’. Proof of fatigue could be seen from their last game when a 3-0 lead was blown in an eventual 4-3 overtime win. If it were an opponent other than Vegas, I would like Carolina’s chances, but Vegas has won three-straight games in regulation while scoring at will (5.33 goals per game). Vibes are high in Vegas’ third-straight home game, and overall I also think they have a stronger offensive build that should be able to penetrate an impressive Hurricanes team. It will be a pure battle, but take the Golden Knights on the money line for our Hurricanes vs. Golden Knights prediction.
