Vegas is 10-1 in their last 11 games against the Eastern Conference and 9-2 in their last 11 road games. The under is 5-1 in Vegas’ last 6 games. Boston is 5-1 in their last 6 Monday games and 47-17 in their last 64 games. The under is 6-2-2 in Boston’s last 10 home games. Vegas is 1-6 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings.
Boston comes into this game with the best record in the NHL and will be on home ice, while Vegas leads the Pacific Division and has won two of their last three games. Boston has played incredibly well on defense and is only giving up 2.13 goals per game. This should be a great game, but I am going to take the under here.
