Vegas comes off a 6-0 win over San Jose, and Marc-Andre Fleury won his ninth straight decision to improve to 26-10-0 on the season with a 1.98 goals-against average. Minnesota goalie Cam Talbot has a 19-8-5 record, 2.63 GAA, and a .915 save percentage, but he has lost four of his last six decisions, including 4-0 at St. Louis on Wednesday. Talbot allowed five goals against the Golden Knights while winning 6-5 on May 3, and then he had a, 3-2, overtime loss to the Knights two days later. Vegas is 21-5-2 at home, and the Wild is 14-11-3 on the road. The Golden Knights have won seven of their last 10 games despite playing with a depleted roster due to injuries, but they are healthier now heading into the playoffs. Minnesota has been tougher on the Knights than most teams, but home-ice advantage along with Fleury in net give the edge to Vegas. Take the Golden Knights.
