Vegas at San Jose

The two best teams in the Pacific division clash, a possible playoff preview. Vegas has won two in a row allowing just one goal to improve its defensive rankings to eighth in the NHL in goals allowed. Vegas is on a 7-2 run UNDER the total, including six straight UNDERs on the road. They head to San Jose, a unit that is also outstanding on defense, seventh in goals allowed, second in penalty killing. The Sharks have won eight of 10, though the power play is 6-for-38 the last 19 contests. San Jose is 34-15-4 UNDER the total playing on one day of rest and there's too much defensive talent on display to warrant this high a total. Play Vegas/San Jose UNDER.
