In this article, we will analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NHL odds for the Golden Knights vs. Kings game and provide expert predictions.
The season series between these two teams is currently tied at 1-1, with each team winning on their home ice. The last meeting saw the Kings come out on top with a 6-3 victory. In the past 6 meetings, the Over has hit 4 times.
Vegas enters the game on a 3-game win streak, with goalie Adin Hill stopping 33 of 34 shots in their last game against the Vancouver Canucks. The Golden Knights have been solid defensively, allowing just 7 goals in their last 4 games.
On the other hand, the LA Kings have been lighting up the scoreboard with 4 or more goals in 4 of their last 5 games. However, their defense has been more suspect, leading to the Over hitting in 4 of their last 5 games.
