Vegas rolls four deep lines on offense that can wear down opponents, ranked second in the NHL in goals scored, ninth on the power play. Vegas is the first expansion club in league history to accumulate 100 points. Vegas is 11-5 OVER the total against the Central division, plus 9-3 OVER when their opponent scores 2 goals or less in their previous game. They face a Colorado squad that is Top 10 in the NHL in goals scored, but the defense is in the middle of the pack, #15 in goals allowed. Colorado is off a blowout loss at home to the Kings, 7-1, on Thursday. The Avalanche are 21-5 OVER the total at home against a team with a winning road record, as well as 19-6-1 OVER when they face a team with a winning percentage above .600. Vegas won the only previous meeting 7-0 sailing OVER the total and this one will, too. Play the OVER.
