I’m really going to miss the NHL when it shuts down starting on Friday for the Winter Olympics break, as I’ve made bank on it this season. Oh well, one more day of action to go – let’s hit another winner. For my best bet for Thursday, February 5th: NHL Predictions, we’re off to the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada. Let’s get this money!
Best Bet For Thursday (February 5th): NHL Predictions
Los Angeles Kings vs Vegas Golden Knights
Start Time: 10:00 PM EST
Pacific Division rivals the Los Angeles Kings and the Vegas Golden Knights butt heads tomorrow night, as the first-place Knights welcome the fifth-place Kings to the desert. But don’t let their places in the standings fool you – only four points separate the two teams, and the Kings have a game in hand.
However, the better team of the two is the one in first place – Vegas. Though not spectacular at anything – they are 14th in the NHL in both offense and defense, and slightly below average at home – they’ve done enough to sit atop the standings once more. And the Golden Knights don’t have a glaring weakness like their foes, the Kings, do. Los Angeles is second-to-last in the league in goals scored (they’ve tried to remedy that by trading for Artemi Panarin, who will not be in action tomorrow).
Let’s go with the home team on the moneyline tomrorow night.
Best Bet: Vegas ML (-140)
