Vegas Golden Knights vs Dallas Stars Picks & Analysis | NHL Picks & Betting Odds

Everything is bigger in Texas, except for VGK-DAL total goals on Wednesday...

It’s the first rematch of the unforgettable 2020 Western Conference Final, but if you tuned out of the pandemic-shortened season last year, each team will be almost unrecognizable when Vegas and Dallas drop the puck on Wednesday night.

Look, something’s going to have to give in a game featuring two of the worst offences in the sport at American Airlines Center.

Hampered by injury after injury, the Vegas Golden Knights are repping a 2-4 record that includes a win last night in Colorado. Pete DeBoer’s job might not be in jeopardy yet, but with the league’s worst power play and third-lowest shooting percentage, it might be easier for you to embarrass a dealer at a Vegas casino than it is for the Golden Knights to find the net.

Luckily, their opponent on Wednesday averages under two goals per game and is missing last year’s Rookie of the Year finalist Jason Robertson. Captain Jamie Benn is still looking for his first goal of the campaign, and bubble playoff hero Joel Kiviranta has been held pointless all season.

Dallas has yet to play a game this year with over five total goals, and against a Vegas team that is playing in their third time zone in four nights, look for that trend to continue tonight.
