Vegas Golden Knights Stats & Team News
A remarkable run of performances by the Vegas Golden Knights ensures that they are within one victory of securing a place in the Stanley Cup finals. Vegas have been offensive strong throughout this series, scoring 12 goals in the three matches so far. They showed excellent character in the latest meeting, bouncing back from a first period deficit to register a 5-3 success.
Mark Stone, Tomas Hertl, and Brett Howden scored the goals. The Golden Knights will once again be the outsiders in the betting, but that hasn’t stopped them in the opening three games with the Avalanche.
Colorado Avalanche Stats & Team News
It feels remarkable that the Colorado Avalanche could exit the postseason on Tuesday after dominating for much of the regular season. The Presidents’ Trophy winners just haven’t got going in this series with the Golden Knights, and there will be major pressure to recapture their best form on Tuesday.
The manner of their Game 3 defeat would be a concern, as the Avalanche threw away a 3-0 advantage to lose 5-3 at the T-Mobile Arena. Devon Toews ended the night with two assists, while Jack Drury was among the scorers.
Vegas Golden Knights vs. Colorado Avalanche Picks
This is a must-win clash for the Avalanche, but their confidence is likely to be low following Sunday’s loss. Therefore, the Golden Knights could once again be the balance play at the odds available.
