At 10:07pm, my NHL Western Conference Total Of The Month is on Colorado/Vegas under. This is a great showdown between a pair of former Stanley Cup champions. You might expect otherwise but their recent games against each other have been low-scoring. As a matter of fact, 7 of the past 9 meetings between these teams have gone to the under. Those 9 games had a total of only 41 goals. That's an average of only 4.56 goals per game. The Golden Knights lost a number of contributors in the offseason including last year's leading scorer, Jonathan Marchessault. The 6 players they lost to free agency on July 1st combined for 85 goals and 182 points last season. It may take time to figure out who replaces that scoring. This will lead to a low-scoring home opener.
