#77/78 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* OVER 6.5 Goals - Detroit Red Wings at Vegas Golden Knights, Thursday at 10 PM ET - The Golden Knights are off their first shutout loss of the season on Monday! Vegas will be responding big time here off that rare goose egg on home ice! The Golden Knights are home again for this one and will bounce back but they continue to have shaky goaltending. Thompson has allowed 3.6 gpg in his last 5 home appearances and has given up at least 3 goals in all 5 of those. Hill's last 6 appearances in the crease featured two good ones but in the other 4 he allowed 11 goals on just 60 shots! No matter which goalie goes tonight, the Red Wings should enjoy some success. Detroit has scored an average of 4 goals per game in their last 5 games! Like Vegas, the issue for the Red Wings has been allowing too many goals no matter who is in goal. So we are not overly concerned with who is in goal here because Detroit has given up 4 goals per game last 15 games but we will mention Husso is the expected netminder here. Husso has had one good outing in his last 10 appearances. In the other 9, Husso has allowed 39 goals for an average of 4.33 goals per game! The goalie struggles of both Husso and Hellberg are a big reason that 9 of last 14 Red Wings games have totaled at least 7 goals. Those games have averaged about 8 goals apiece. Considering all the above plus a fired up Vegas team that will be relentless in the attacking zone off a home shutout loss, you have the ideal situation for plenty of goals in this one. Vegas scores well at home but can not stop Detroit either and that leads to a solid win for us here. Look for at least 7 in this one! Over is our play here.
