The NHL Western Conference will be the protagonist of the last games to be disputed on next Wednesday’s schedule, in which the clash between Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche promises to be the most interesting one. This expectation is due to the fact that both teams are considered as favorites to compete for the top spot of their respective Divisions.
On the one hand, Vegas Golden Knights gave everything they had during the first round of the playoffs, but they couldn’t defeat Dallas Stars in a series that extended to 7 games. In this regard, it must be remembered that Jack Eichel and Jonathan Marchessault were the offensive leaders throughout the season, being relevant to mention that Marchessault left the team to join Nashville Predators.
On the other hand, Colorado Avalanche were only able to advance to the second round of the playoffs, however they suffered the same fate as Vegas Golden Knights after falling against Dallas Stars. Even so, they were one of the best offensives throughout the season with 304 scored goals, so keeping MacKinnon and Rantanen in their squad convert them in of the most dangerous teams to play against this season.

Our Vegas Golden Knights vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction
To conclude, both teams didn’t have a good offensive performance during the preseason, so it isn’t weird that the main expectation around this game is having one of the most even games in the calendar. However, the loss of Marchessault for Vegas is definitely going to have a negative impact during the first rounds of the regular season, so the pick for Vegas Golden Knights – Colorado Avalanche is: Colorado Avalanche To Score The First Goal of the Game!
