St. Louis +167 ML over Vegas

6:00 PM ET. OT included. The Golden Knights find themselves navigating the roughest stretch of their campaign. Fresh off three consecutive losses and having dropped five of their last six, the Golden Knights are stumbling at a time when their early-season dominance feels like a distant memory. To compound matters, their latest defeat came at the hands of the NHL's basement-dweller, the Chicago Blackhawks, in a game where Vegas allowed three goals in under four minutes.

The Golden Knights’ struggles are self-inflicted, stemming from preventable mistakes and an inability to limit damage during bad stretches. Coach Bruce Cassidy admitted as much, highlighting the team’s inability to "put out fires" the way they did earlier in the season. When a team like Vegas is entrenched in a rut, asking them to “flip the switch” often proves easier said than done.

On the other side, the St. Louis Blues enter this game after a 4-2 loss to Utah in a rare neutral-site game, but the Blues are showing flashes of resilience and urgency as they remain in the hunt for a playoff spot. The Blues have been inconsistent, but there are reasons to like their chances in this spot.

St. Louis has not yet won three in a row this season, a trend that’s been well-documented, but it’s the type of narrative the market loves to latch onto. This creates value, as we’re buying low on a team that has shown it can rise to the occasion. Coach Jim Montgomery’s decision to bench his top line in Utah was a message to his squad: lack of effort won’t be tolerated. That type of accountability can light a fire under a team, especially with the Blues facing a golden opportunity (pun intended) to exploit a shaky Vegas team.
