LiontipsVegas Golden Knights vs San Jose Sharks. Predictions and Betting Tips for NHL
Command Analysis
Vegas keep themselves in excellent form, which allows the team to consistently earn points. The winning streak has reached seven matches, and Vegas have only experienced some setbacks against San Jose. Still, the Golden Knights found the strength to beat their opponent in a penalty shootout with a score of 3:2. Goalkeeper Lehner has saved 93% of the shots and deserves high praise. All of the other games of the Knights ended in regulation time.
At home, the Knights are also showing excellent results, with a winning streak reaching three matches. Thanks to the points scored, Vegas were able to overtake Colorado and take the leading position in the Western Division with 66 points.
San Jose is far from its optimal form, and the team keeps losing points in every game. The losing streak has reached six games, with almost all of them ending in regulation time. Only against the Golden Knights did the Sharks have a chance to gain the upper hand, but alas, in the shootout the opponent was more accurate (2:3 B).
The main problem of the Sharks at the moment is their weak play in defense, which is why they concede four goals per game. That is a very big number, even for the NHL. Away San Jose also shows sad results - only two wins out of nine games.
