I haven't put out hockey picks around here for a long time but tonight’s contest in Sunrise vs. the Panthers would be deserving.
Knights dominate the Bolts last night from start to finish. Go for the best record in hockey against a team that kicked Garard Gallant to the curb in Raleigh.
Knights haven’t played a bad game since November. 15-2-2 since 12/1. Florida have sputtered all year long and currently 11 points out of a wild card playoff spot.
Florida comes off their 5 day break, losers of 4 in last 5.
In their only meeting, 12/17, Vegas outshot Florida 40-18 and of course won 5-2. Ex-Panthers Johnathan Marchessault and Reilly Smith combined for 5 points. No reason to believe we don’t see a similar effort by them tonight.
Subban vs. Reimer is a check mark in Vegas’ column.
Only concern is Vegas plays their 3rd in 4 after dominating the Lightning last night in Tampa Bay but in this case I think it’s a good thing and they ride the wave for a historic night.
Vegas -104
Also think over 6 has some merit.
