Golden Knights vs Stars Prediction & Pick

The Stars easily could've accepted their fate after going down 3-0 and rolled over in Game 4. Instead, the adversity has only caused this team to rise to the occasion. Dallas finally coming out on top in OT was a huge turning point after previously falling in first two games of this series in extra time.

Dallas channeled that positive momentum into another victory in Game 5, which included a pair of goals down the stretch to steal a road win. Now the stage is set for the Stars to continue their comeback in front of the home crowd at American Airlines Center.

Vegas has simply lacked the urgency it needs to close out Dallas after leading 1-0 and 2-1 in both Game 4 and 5. It's easy to see the Golden Knights dropping this one and focusing on a Game 7 at home.

Final Score Prediction: Stars: 3 | Golden Knights: 2

Golden Knights vs Stars Best Bet

Stars left wing Jason Robertson is doing everything he can to put the pressure on Vegas. Robertson's been very involved in Dallas' scoring efforts, recording at least one goal in four of five matchups so far.

It's clear the LW is having no trouble beating the Golden Knights' defense, and with his team facing elimination, I expect Robertson to do everything he can to put one in the back of the net.

Bet: Jason Robertson Any Time Goal Scorer (+160)
