The Senators take on the Golden Knights in the NHL on Thursday night. What to expect from this game? Look out for our prediction below.
Command Analysis
Ottawa Senators
CanadaOttawa had a four-game winning streak a few days ago, but now the team is in a downturn. The Senators lost three consecutive games - after a home defeat to Minnesota (2:4), they lost to Florida (3:5) and Tampa (3:4) away. Ottawa played well in each of those games, but the opponents were too strong for the Canadian side. J.J. Smith has been excellent this season, on average he scored three goals per game.
Vegas Golden Knights
USAVegas are on top form. The team won the last five games and tops the Western Conference standings with 18 points. The Golden Knights have a powerful squad and can surely remain one of the leaders for the entire season. Nevertheless, the last two games of the VGK were very tough. After snatching a victory from Winnipeg in overtime (2:1 OT), Vegas celebrated success over Washington (3:2 OT). Bruce Cassidy's men conceded no more than two goals in the last five games.
