The Vegas Golden Knights face the Anaheim Ducks on Monday in a Pacific Division showdown. The defending Stanley Cup champions have started the 2025–26 campaign well, sitting near the top of the division with a 7–3–3 record. Vegas opened the season with points in eight straight games, including strong wins over Dallas and Edmonton. However, they're coming off a 5–3 home loss to Tampa Bay that exposed some defensive lapses.
Still, the Golden Knights remain one of the league's most balanced teams, averaging around 2.5 goals against per game and featuring a deep, veteran roster. At home, they've been nearly unbeatable, going 3–0–2 at T-Mobile Arena. Head coach Bruce Cassidy will look for a rebound performance as Vegas aim to reassert their defensive identity and end Anaheim's winning streak.
Anaheim have been one of the NHL's biggest surprises this season, leading the Pacific Division with a 9–4–1 record. The Ducks are riding a five-game win streak and have scored 25 goals during that run. Their offense has exploded with back-to-back seven-goal outings, including a 7–5 comeback win over Dallas where they erased a 3–0 deficit.
Under coach Greg Cronin, Anaheim's young core has found confidence and belief. Mason McTavish and Trevor Zegras have driven the surge, while veteran addition Chris Kreider has provided leadership and timely scoring. The Ducks are 8–3–1 in division play but face a tough challenge on tired legs after playing in Dallas two nights earlier.

Our Anaheim Ducks vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction
Vegas will lean on their championship experience and star power. Jack Eichel leads the team in points, averaging about a point per game with several clutch goals. Captain Mark Stone continues to set the tone with his two-way play and leadership, while Jonathan Marchessault and Reilly Smith offer secondary scoring.
On defense, Alex Pietrangelo and Shea Theodore remain reliable at both ends, and goaltenders Logan Thompson and Adin Hill have split duties effectively — Thompson even recording a shutout earlier this year.
Anaheim's youthful attack will test Vegas's structure. Zegras leads the Ducks in points with dazzling playmaking, and McTavish tops the team in goals with nine, including a recent hat trick. Kreider's scoring touch and veteran presence have rounded out the top six, while defensemen Jamie Drysdale and Cam Fowler help fuel Anaheim's transition game.
Expect an exciting contest between the established contender and the fast-rising challenger. The Ducks' energy could keep things close early, but Vegas's structure, depth, and home-ice advantage should prevail. Our prediction for Vegas Golden Knights vs Anaheim Ducks: Under 5.5 goals.
