Ottawa has only won a single game on the year so far. That win came against the Lightning, which was a little bit shocking for the Lightning. However, the other issue that Lightning have had is their defense has not been able to show up like last season and that could make it a disaster for the Senators in this game here as the Golden Knights have a great offense.

With the Senators they have not converted on any power plays all year long, but are getting a total of 2.40 goals a game. The defense for the Senators has killed off 81.8% of the opponents power plays and have allowed 3.80 goals a game on the year.

The Golden Knights are having some problems playing consistent hockey on the year. This year the Golden Knights have started off really strong, but then lost 2 games, then won 2 and then lost again. This time the Golden Knights lost the game to the Predators in what could only be seen as an embarrassing loss to the Predators.

Scoring for the Golden Knights has been done at a clip of 3.71 goals a game on the year. The team has converted on the power play at 29.2% on the year, but have managed to kill of 92.6% of the opponents power plays. The Golden Knight have allowed only 2.71 goals a game on the year.

Ottawa has struggled a lot on the defensive side of the ice this year and that will prove to be a problem in this game here. What else does not help the Senators out is the fact that their offense is streaky at times and that will definitely cost the Senators in this game here. Final Score Prediction, Vegas Golden Knights win 4-2.
