Golden Knights Coming Off Close Victory 

The Golden Knights faced off against Anaheim in the last game and they were able to secure a 3-2 victory. Thomas Hertl had a strong game putting up one goal. Adin Hall started in goal and he saved 22 of the 24 shots. In this game, Vegas is going to need to get the offense out to a fast start. Vegas has averaged 4.1 goals per game so far this season. This puts them all the way up in the 3rd place ranking for offense in the NHL. Their defense has been giving up around 3.1 goals per game, ranking their defense 16th in the NHL.

Can Utah Build on the Last Game

Utah faced off against the Carolina Hurricanes in the last game and they scored four goals on the way to the way victory. Nick Bjugstand had a strong game putting up two goals on three shots on goal. Karel Vejmelka started in gaol and he saved 49 of the 50 shots that he faced. Utah needs to do a better job and try to prevent so many shots from going on goal. Utah has been averaging about 2.8 goals per game. This puts Utah in 20th place offensively amongst teams in the NHL so far this season. Their defense has allowed around 3.1 goals against them per game, putting them in 16th place overall. Utah will meet the Capitals after this one.

Vegas Golden Knights vs Utah Hockey Club Prediction

Utah’s offense overall has been an issue and they are averaging only 2.8 goals per game. Utah can’t be trusted with their offense and I expect they are going to really struggle here. Vegas offense is ranked 3rd in the NHL averaging 4.1 goals per game and they are going to cruise to the victory. Utah will have no answer. Vegas is going to cruise here. Back the Golden Knights on the puck line.
