Las Vegas Golden Knights vs Washington Capitals Key Stats
The Golden Knights were expected to return to full strength this season after missing the playoffs in 2021 due to a long list of injuries.
They have certainly not disappointed after their first ten appearances with a healthy lineup on the ice. The lockdown Knights have held opponents to 1.7 goals each game and found the net 3.2 times per game on 34 shots. That has given them an impressive +15 goal differential after ten games. Center Jack Eichel leads the Golden Knights in points with ten - six assists and four goals.
This matchup against a tough Vegas team couldn't have come at a worse time for the Capitals. The Capitals are too fresh off their tough overtime skate against the Hurricanes last night, especially considering the long list of names on the injury report now.
This season, the Caps have been led by Ovechkin in points and goals, but they've spread the production around pretty well, making their injuries critical. The Capitals continue to find a way to stay in the fight, but it doesn't look like they will be able to keep pace with the Golden Knights.
Washington is averaging three goals per game on 28 shots and allowing 2.8 per game. The Golden Knights should stretch those averages tonight.
Las Vegas Golden Knights vs Washington Capitals Betting Prediction
Vegas is going to have no problem getting shots off and quickly show that they're the more dominant, healthier team.
The Capitals could play a lot of defense and try to catch up in goals but could show their scrapy team identity. Vegas should win and control tonight's game, and the Caps could help hit the over with a garbage-time goal.
Prediction: Las Vegas Moneyline (-160), Over 6.5 (-102)
