Devils vs Golden Knights Pickswise Expert Predictions

Money Line Pick
VGS Golden Knights Win(-185)

The New Jersey Devils and Vegas Golden Knights hit the ice on Wednesday night in the NHL. These cross-conference teams met earlier in the month when the Golden Knights dominated in a 3-0 road win. The Devils will now be looking for payback in an effort to spoil the game in front of a faithful Vegas crowd. To get you set for the action, here is our full Devils vs. Golden Knights prediction.

It has been a rough go for the Devils without superstar leader Jack Hughes. Overall they have gone  6-10-0 in his injury absence, and 2-7-0 in their last nine games. While I think they are still a strong team and they are just four points from second in the Metropolitan Division with a game in hand, they clearly have many weaknesses. On the road in an energetic building against a solid team, I see them struggling. Vegas has won two-straight games, and have posted an impressive 6-0-1 record in their last seven. They are making up for a highly-volatile start to the season, that at one point saw them 10-6-8, and with league dominance on their mind, I don’t see them slowing down. Their elite play of late is no fluke as they have an elite team, and New Jersey will realize this yet again. For our Devils vs. Golden Knights prediction, take Vegas on the money line.
