Ducks vs. Golden Knights Prediction and Tips for October 13, 2024

The Golden Knights are off to a great start and I believe they are dominant from the first period on in this game. The Golden Knights look to build a game in which they scored four goals and created plenty of scoring opportunities, with Jack Eichel, Ivan Barbashev and the rest of the forward unit controlling the puck in the offensive zone and creating free shots with quick passes. The Golden Knights should limit the Ducks' offense by having Shea Theodore, Alex Pietrangelo and the rest of the defensive unit create turnovers in the defensive zone and limit shots on net, allowing goaltender Adin Hill to make a lot of big saves. The Golden Knights should win the game and close the gap with a dominant win on their home ice.

The Golden Knights are led by their offense and I believe this game will be a high-scoring game from the first period onwards. The Ducks should create plenty of scoring opportunities as Isac Lundestrom, Trevor Zegras and the rest of the forward unit move the puck into the offensive zone and create free shots with quick passes. The Golden Knights, who have scored 12 goals in their first two games, should increase the scoring with Jack Eichel, Ivan Barbashev, Mark Stone and the rest of the forward unit crashing the net on the rush and creating open shots with effective puck movement, while defensemen Shea Theodore and Alex Pietrangelo generate shots on net from the blue line. The over should cover in a high-scoring game where both offenses get stronger.

Take the over with 6.5 goals.
