Colorado at Vegas

Normally a team down 2-0 in a playoff series is a good bet due to the opponents's letdown situation, but Vegas essentially dominated the Avalanche the first two games on the road and now the Golden Knights have home ice for Game 3. They won Game 2 on Friday night 3-1 and the Knights came within inches of scoring two more before breaking through with three third-period goals. Carter Hart stopped 29 of 30 shots and the Knights are peaking at the right time with new coach John Tortorella. Vegas has won five of its past six games, nine of 11 against the Western Conference and five straight against the Central Division dating back to the regular season. Take the Golden Knights on the puck line.
