Vegas has won the past 10 meetings, including a 3-0 mark this season, with the latest being a 7-2 rout on Dec. 23. The Golden Knights have turned things around and won three straight following a five-game skid, including 4-2 over St. Louis on Saturday night with Akira Schmid stopping 17 of 19 shots. Carl Lindbom will likely start tonight as Carter Hart is out with an injury. His last appearance was on Nov. 29 when he allowed three goals in a 4-3 win over San Jose. Yaroslav Askarov is expected to start for the Sharks and he owns a 3.44 goals-against average. San Jose is #30 in the NHL allowing 3.50 goals par game. The Knights have won four straight in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days situation. Take the Golden Knights.

Pro Picks
San Jose at Vegas
Vegas has owned the Sharks, winning the past eight meetings, so they are the perfect team for the Golden Knights to end a four-game skid, including a 4-1 loss to Montreal yesterday. The Knights have won five of six in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days situation, and they have won 20 of 28 against teams with losing records dating to last season. Vegas is 5-2 in its past seven games, playing on no rest. San Jose is also playing a back-to-back after defeating Vancouver 3-2. Yaroslav Askarov stopped 32 shots for the Sharks, who will likely start Alex Nedeljkovic tonight. He is 3-4-2 with a 3.02 goals-against average. San Jose is averaging 2.1 goals in its past 10 games. Take the Golden Knights.

Pro Picks
Vegas at San Jose
San Jose has won two in a row for the first time since Nov. 30 and the Sharks would like to extend the streak in a double-revenge situation against Vegas. Yaroslav Askarov had 24 saves as the Sharks beat Tampa Bay 2-1 on Thursday, and then he stopped 28 of 30 shots in a 3-2 win over New Jersey on Saturday. San Jose could go with Askarov as the No. 1 starter the rest of the season as he appears to be the future of the team. Alexandar Georgiev is 9-11-0 with a 3.55 goals-against average. The Golden Knights have won 17 of 21 home games, but just 10 of 18 on the road and San Jose is getting huge value from the oddsmakers. Take the Sharks.
