New York Islanders vs. Vegas Golden Knights Prediction
I’m on the Islanders here. Vegas has been one of the strongest home teams in the NHL since their inception into the NHL a few years ago, but right now, the Golden Knights just are in a slump, as they can’t get the job done anywhere, but especially at home. The Islanders have looked solid so far on this road trip, and I think the value is on New York in this one. Give me the Islanders.
