The Washington Capitals stole home ice advantage in the Stanley Cup Finals with their Game 2 victory in Vegas. Goaltender Braden Holtby was the hero with a couple of amazing saves in the dying minutes of the game, but I expect the Golden Knights to bounce back and win a high-scoring contest here in Game 3. Note that Vegas is a solid 6-2 on the road so far in the playoffs while the Caps are just 4-5 home at Capital One Arena.

"We try and play the same game no matter what game we're playing at, and it worked really well so far in the post-season," Vegas coach Gerard Gallant said Thursday. "We just try and play the same game — play a quick, fast game, an up-tempo game. Every game's important in the playoffs, so I really don't think it matters if you're playing at home or on the road. Just make sure you're focused for that game."

Over is 5-1-3 in Capitals last 9 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
