Sharks vs Golden Knights Prediction

In their previous meeting earlier this season, Vegas won 4-3 on the road in overtime and have won their last 8 meetings against the Sharks. Over is 3-1 in their last 4 meetings.

In this Sharks vs Golden Knights Prediction, the Knights are coming as -350 home favorites. This line is just wrong and disrespectful to the Sharks, who have two more wins than the Knights, who have been struggling lately with four consecutive losses. The Sharks have 6 road losses, while the Knights have 8 defeats at home and are an abysmal 1-6 in their last 7 home games. Both teams are also on the complete opposite side when it comes to covering the puckline, as Vegas is 7-17 against the spread this season, while San Jose is 18-7. I like the guests to keep this one close, so take the Sharks by +1.5 in this one.
