The Las Vegas Golden Knights used a big 3rd period to pull away from the Florida Panthers to take a 1-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Finals. A team with a 1-0 lead and playing Game 2 at home has a 78.3% chance of winning the series, along with a 68% chance of winning game 2 at home. A win tonight will give them a franchise record 65 wins on the season including the playoffs. The Panthers have suffered 5 playoff losses and 4 of the 5 losses have been by 2 goals or more. The Golden Knights have already won 9 playoff games by 2 or more goals this season and in the 13 wins they have had, the average margin has been by +2.6 goals. I see a lot of value on the Golden Knights here on the puck line. Make the play on Vegas on the puck line.
