The Golden Knights’ start of the season is definitely one of the best in recent campaigns, and they proved it in Toronto on Tuesday night.
After the Maple Leafs turned the game around with two goals in the second period, the Vegas Golden Knights team evened the game in the third period with Reilly Smith’s sixth goal of the season, who would also score the game-winner goal in overtime.
With this victory, the Golden Knights extend their winning streak to eight games in a row, three of them in overtime. Also, in nine of the fouteen games they have played so far, they have scored at least four goals.
In addition, before the game, Las Vegas was the team that averaged the fewest goals allowed per game with just 2.08 and it remains one of the teams with the fewest penalties committed in the circuit.
Betting on Buffalo Sabres
- Season record: 7-6-0.
- BetMGM’s Puck line: (+1.5, -185).
- Moneyline: (+135)
- Over/Under: 6.5
Thursday’s game against the Golden Knights might not be the best news for a Buffalo team that has lost three games in a row, after falling to Arizona whi is one of the weakest teams in the league.
The Sabres weren’t able to start with the right foot the four games they had at home, and now, they must look to bounce back on Thursday and Saturday against Vegas and against the Boston Bruins, the best two teams at the start of this NHL campaign.
Buffalo was unable to take advantage of the 33 shots to the goal against the Coyotes, and only Tage Thompson, with his eighth goal of the campaign, was able to send the puck to the back of the net after Arizona went up 23 seconds into the game.
Problems on their defense continue to give the Sabres a headache, a team who has allowed at least four goals in each of their three consecutive lost games. In addition, it is striking that even when they are the team with the best average of goals per game with 4.08, they have only managed to score one against the Coyotes, a team that concedes 4.09 goals per game, the third highest figure in the league.
JefeBet Prediction
Facing one of the best teams in the league should not be pleasant for the Sabres, who are looking to end a three-game in a row losing streak. However, the locals still have some hope as they are among the top teams in goals per game average.
Las Vegas has won eight consecutive games, but their visits to Buffalo have always been a problem and, in fact, they have lost the last three meetings at the KeyBank Center. That is precisely the reason why the home team has a 6-0 record in the last six meetings between the two.
Prediction: Sabres Spread (LV 4 – BUF 3).
