LA Kings (5-2-2) vs Vegas Golden Knights (7-2-1)
Wednesday, October 30, 2024 at 10:00 pm
My selection is on Los Angeles over Vegas at 10:05 pm et on Wednesday.
We won with the Golden Knights the last time these two teams met back on October 22nd. I won't hesitate to switch gears and go the other way in Wednesday's rematch. The Kings are coming off a tough 4-2 loss in San Jose last night. The Sharks seem to be finding their way so perhaps that defeat wasn't quite as embarrassing as it might have been a week or so ago. With that being said, I think getting right back on the ice, at home no less, on Wednesday is a good thing for Los Angeles. It seemed like the Kings were caught a little flat-footed last night and perhaps the late scratch of Kevin Fiala (he missed a team meeting) played a factor. It won't be difficult for Los Angeles to get back up for this contest after Vegas rolled to a 6-1 win in the last matchup between the two. The Knights enter this game riding a four-game winning streak but all four of those contests came at home. They've gone 0-2-1 on the road this season while the Kings are 2-0 on home ice. Take Los Angeles (8*).
