Blue jackets at Golden Knights Picks and predictions

forecast

Golden Knight 4, Blue Jackets 3

Money line

The Golden Knights (-235) cost them 2 times their potential return, and that is far too much risk of not nearly enough reward.

The Blue Jackets (+195) are a very tempting game to almost double, especially since you shared the last 10 meetings with Vegas. If you want to roll the cubes and are a less conservative bed, take a chance.

HAPPEN.

Puck line/against the spread

The Blue jackets +1.5 (-125) are a decent game that catches it and half a goal. They have given the golden knights -1.5 (+105) many problems over the years. In addition, Vegas is only 3-6-2 in the last 11 games, so it is first-class for the selection.

About/below

Over 6.5 (-105) is the slim, but go with one Half unit game at best.

The over has connected a 4-1-1 clip for the Golden Knights in the last 6 games. However, be careful because VGK has redeemed low in a 5: 1 clip in 6 games at home.

The jackets hit under in 7 of the last 8 excursions because Merzlikins really hums together.
