Vegas Golden Knights Betting Trends

The Golden Knights are 1-5 SU in their last six games.
They are 1-3 SU in their last four road games.
They are 1-5 SU in their last six games as a favorite.
They have an Over record of 6-3 in their last nine games.

After winning eight of their first 10 games, the Golden Knights (9-5-2) have hit the skids, losing five of their last six games. The attack, or lack thereof, has been the main issue; in their five losses in their last six games, they failed to score more than two goals in any of them. In the last game before the 1-5 skid, Vegas was at home and beat the Penguins 6-2.

In Vegas’ last game, they were on the road and lost in a 3-2 shootout to the Boston Bruins. In the loss, Mark Stone scored on a power play, Trevor Connelly lit the lamp, and Carter Hart stopped 25 of 27 shots.

They are 0-5 in their last five games as an underdog.

The Penguins (5-7-2) have lost two in a row and six of their last eight games and are tied with the Philadelphia Flyers for the second-fewest points in the Eastern Conference.

In Pittsburgh’s last game, they were on the road in a 5-4 loss to the Montreal Canadiens, where Sydney Crosby and Erik Karlsson each had a goal and two assists, Tommy Novak and Rickard Rakell had a goal and an assist, and Sergei Murashov had a less-than-stellar game in between the pipes, giving up five goals on 27 shots.

Probable Starting Goalies

Golden Knights

Vegas played last night with Carter Hart (4-3-2, 2.65 GAA, .893 save %), so there is a good chance Adin Hill (5-2-0, 2.80 GAA, .891 save %) will start. Hill has been up and down lately, giving up at least four goals in two of his last three starts while allowing no more than two goals in three of his last five starts.

Penguins

The Pens did not play last night, so look for top netminder Arturs Silovs (5-3-1, 2.98 GAA, .889 save %) to start in goal, with Sergei Murashov (0-1-1, 3.83 GAA, .871 save %) starting in the last game. Silovs gave up four goals in his last start, while allowing only two in the two starts before that.

Golden Knights vs. Penguins Prediction: Penguins Moneyline (-105)

Both teams are struggling, with the Golden Knights losing five of their last six games and the Penguins losing six of their last eight. While Vegas has the better record, but their attack has really struggled lately. I am sticking with one of the Golden Rules of sports betting: never backing the road team on the second game of a back-to-back. Pittsburgh is fresher, and at home and in what I see as a close game, they will get the win.
