Puck Line +1.5 • Vegas Golden Knights

Play: Vegas Golden Knights +1.5 --155, 2 units. Rationale: Vegas has shown the ability to keep pace in tight playoff contests and this market prices a narrow outcome rather than an upset; the price is defensible as a value play given the matchup dynamics and the benefit of a one-goal buffer. Mechanics-wise, the +1.5 means Vegas can lose by one goal or win outright and the bet still cashes, which aligns with an expected close, low-variance game flow; stake size reflects that conservatism and bet responsibly.
