Chicago Blackhawks vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction

The Golden Knights are going to be favored at home for obvious reasons, and they’ve won 6 of the last 9 games against the Blackhawks. However, Vegas been a mess defensively as of late, which has led to the Golden Knights losing 4 of their last 5 games. The Blackhawks have had struggles of their own, but we’re also not being asked to lay this ridiculously steep line. The Golden Knights have seen 4 of their 6 losses come at home, for what that’s worth. Based on the price, I’ll take a stab with the Blackhawks as a fade of Vegas and this crazy line.
