Moneyline: Vegas +105/Los Angeles -125
Total: 5

Vegas is on the verge of pulling off a four-game sweep with one-goal victories in each of its first three postseason games in franchise history. All three games have been close, low-scoring battles and my main takeaway was the poise that the Golden Knights displayed in coming up with the winning goal in all three contests. More impressive has been the play of veteran goalie Marc-Andre Fleury with a stellar .97 save percentage on 99 total shots on goal. He has allowed a grand total of three goals in three games.

Jonathan Quick has also stood on his head in this series as the Kings’ only netminder. He has stopped .945 percent of the 110 sots he has faced in three games, but without any support at the other end of the ice, he is fighting an uphill battle to keep this series alive. There is no way I can bet against Vegas to pull off the sweep, but I will bet on another grinder this Tuesday night that stays UNDER the total line.
