Stars vs Golden Knights: Odds & Prediction
Dallas is a +105 underdog while Vegas is a -125 favorite, the over/under is set at 5.5 goals.
The Stars and Golden Knights are two of the best teams in the NHL and this could be a Conference Final preview. Oettinger and Hill have both played great, so this should be a low-scoring game with both teams playing playoff-like hockey here.
However, Dallas has been playing well and will edge out a road win here.
Prediction: Stars 3, Golden Knights 2.
