In this Golden Knights vs Flames Prediction, the Golden Knights are coming as -165 road favorites. Both teams have been underwhelming this season, and I certainly cannot back Vegas as -165 favorites on the road, when they allow 3.67 goals per game and have a 62.5% power play kill. I cannot trust the Flames either, so I will focus on the total. Both teams allow 7.3 goals per game combined, and they have 6.33 and 7 average total goals this season. Both goalies have been struggling with 7.23 GAA combined, so I expect some goals in this matchup. Take the over 5.5 in this one.
