Golden Knights vs. Ducks Prediction, Odds, Best Prop Bet for NHL Playoffs Game 6

In this story:
The Anaheim Ducks are looking to stay alive in their Western Conference Semifinals series against the Vegas Golden Knights.
It’s been a back-and-forth series throughout, with neither team winning two consecutive games. The Ducks forced overtime in Game 5 in Vegas, but the Golden Knights came away with the victory in the extra session.
Will the Ducks force a Game 7?
Here are the odds, starting goalies, how to watch, and predictions for Golden Knights vs. Ducks in Game 6 on Thursday, May 14.

- Ducks: Lukas Dostal (6-3, 3.36 GAA, .878 SV%)
Carter Hart is starting to put together some solid starts for Vegas. He was shakier early on in the playoffs, but he’s settled in recently.
Lukas Dostal has been consistent for most of this series. Unfortunately, that meant allowing three goals in each of his last three games.

Golden Knights vs. Ducks Best NHL Prop Bets
Golden Knights Best NHL Prop Bet
- Jack Eichel OVER 0.5 Assists (-154)
Jack Eichel is stepping up on the game’s biggest stage. His 15 points are second only to teammate Mitch Marner, and 14 of those points have come via assists.
Eichel’s 14 assists in 11 games lead the league this postseason. He’s recorded an assist in four straight games, including two assists in each of the last two games. He also has 12 assists in his last 8 games overall.
Golden Knights vs. Ducks Prediction and Pick
I don’t expect the zig-zag nature of this series to stop now.
The Golden Knights have been without Mark Stone for the past two games. Stone is a key part of Vegas’ team, and while the Knights were able to claw out an overtime win at home, his potential absence looms large on the road.
Vegas will also be without defenseman Brayden McNabb, who was suspended one game for his hit on Ryan Poehling.
I’ll take the Ducks one more time at home.
Pick: Ducks -108
