Vegas Golden Knights vs. Florida Panthers Prediction
I’m on the Golden Knights here. I just think the Golden Knights have been far more consistent when you look at these two teams side-by-side, and while I’m sure the Panthers will be fine, they’re not really a team worth backing right now even as your defending Stanley Cup champions. I think Vegas keeps up their hot run and gets it done on the road so give me the Golden Knights in this one.
