Vegas came out flat in the first period and lost Game 2 to the Canadiens, but the Golden Knights have shown in the first two rounds that they are the most resilient team in the league, especially winning the last four games of the Colorado series after being down 2-0. There might have been a little complacency and overconfidence against Montreal, but those won't be factors going on the road for the Knights, who will be ready from the drop of the puck. Vegas is 9-2 its past 11 games after scoring two or fewer goals its previous game, and it is 19-7 as a road favorite, 35-17 overall playing with one day of rest. The Knights still have the edge in net with Marc-Andre Fleury, who has a 1.97 goals-against average and .927 save percentage. Take the Golden Knights on the puckline.
