Vegas to Avoid Season Sweep in Our Ducks vs. Golden Knights Prediction Today (Sunday, Feb. 1)
I'm backing Vegas to avoid the season sweep in my Golden Knights vs. Ducks prediction for tonight's game at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. (9:30 p.m. ET, ESPN).
The Golden Knights are the -120 moneyine betting favorite despite losing six of the last seven, including four in a row. As part of these NHL best bets, I'm also spotlighting Cutter Gauthier, one of the few in-form players from these Pacific Division rivals.

💰 Golden Knights vs. Ducks best bet: Golden Knights ML win (-120)
Check out all of our NHL analysis and expert predictions this season.
The Golden Knights lost the first two games of the season series, but I can't see them being swept by the Ducks, the primary reason I'm making this bet.
While the Ducks have been the better team recently, they lost the final two games of their road trip. The Golden Knights' previous three defeats all came by one goal, so I'm inclined to think their fortunes will turn.
Score prediction: Golden Knights 5, Ducks 3
🔥 Best Golden Knights vs. Ducks prop bet: Cutter Gauthier to notch a helper (+160)
Most players from these Pacific Division rivals have struggled recently, with Gauthier one of the few exceptions. He has an assist in four of the previous five games.
He has only 24 assists in 53 games, which is why the best sports betting sites are offering odds of +158 to +160 that he gets at least one helper. Based on his recent fruitful patch, I'm willing to take the risk on the 38.46% probability that the +160 odds carry.
