Dallas is 4-1 in their last 5 Monday games and 0-6 in their last 6 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 4-0-1 in their last 5 games against the Pacific division. Vegas is 11-2 in their last 13 games overall and 8-0 in their last 8 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 4-0-1 in their last 5 games as a favorite. Vegas is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings between these two teams.

Dallas was free-falling into the break while Vegas was hot as can be, but this is the postseason and really anything can happen. With that said, these are still two of the stronger defensive teams in the NHL and I think goals could be at a premium in this one with the strong goaltending on both sides. I’ll side with the under as my free pick for this game but my stronger play is on the side and you can find that as a premium pick which is available here.
