This is an 8* BEATDOWN on the Colorado Avalanche.
At 7-1 to open the year, clearly the Vegas Golden Knights are the biggest surprise in the NHL in the early going. Are the Golden Knights a playoff team right out of the gates? Clearly we'll just have to wait and see, however, there's no doubt that regression at some point will happen and we're thinking it's going to be sooner than later. Colorado enters off a 5-3 home win over Dallas, while Vegas beat Chicago 4-2 most recently. The Avs were the worst team in the league last year, but come in averaging 3.11 GGP, while allowing just 2.67. Semyon Varlamov is 2-2 with a 2.01 GAA on the road thus far. The Knights have averaged 3.38 GPG and allowed only 2.38. Marc-Andre Fleury is 3-1 with a 2.48 GAA, but he's out with a concussion. Oscar Dansk is 2-0 with a 2.43 GAA in the early going. But there's no question that this sets up as a letdown/lookahead spot for Vegas, which has two nights off after this before an extended/lengthy Eastern Conference road swing, a trip which will prove if the team is "for real" or not. Colorado on the other hand has had two nights off. We're impressed with the Knights, but think the value is on the underdog in this particular matchup. Play on COLORADO.
