Next Thursday night’s NHL main event will feature the clash between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Vegas Golden Knights, teams that will face off at the T-Mobile Arena at 08:30 pm CST. For the referred game, the bookies’ odds made the Golden Knights favorites to win, an expectation that makes sense when considering their fantastic momentum.
However, even though the Vegas Golden Knights won their last five consecutive games, it must be noted that the last time they conceded less than two goals in regulation time was on December 17th. Given these numbers, it’s notorious that the Golden Knights should improve their defensive effectiveness to become serious championship contenders.
Meanwhile, the Toronto Maple Leafs saw their four-game winning streak come to an end during their most recent 6-1 loss to the Utah Mammoth. As can be deduced, this loss could be categorized as one of the most disappointing of the season because they again lost the opportunity to sit in a playoff spot for more than two matchdays in a row.

Our Vegas Golden Knights vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction
As can be seen, this matchup is expected to be one of the most spectacular inter-conference games of the season; nevertheless, the Maple Leafs are expected to show a significant defensive improvement to avoid being obliterated as they were against the Utah Mammoth.
To conclude, even though the Vegas Golden Knights are undeniably favorites to win this game, they aren’t really expected to show big dominance over the Toronto Maple Leafs, whose focus will most likely be on securing some points, no matter how. Therefore, the pick for the Toronto Maple Leafs – Vegas Golden Knights is: Total Goals in the 2nd Period - Odd!
