The NHL brings more action as the Game 3 of the Western Conference final between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Dallas Stars. The series are 2-1 for Dallas after the first three games.
Vegas Golden Knights Form
The Knights are one of the best teams in the league this year. And it no coincidence that they are now in the final of the Western Conference. They lost the first game of the series with a score of 1-0. However, this Vegas side is quality and therefore they managed to bounce back with a commanding 3-0 win in game 2. But still, The Vegas Golden Knights lost for the fourth time in their past six fixtures after dropping Game 3 of their Western Conference Final series against the Dallas Stars. Therefore, this is a must-win game for them

Dallas Stars Form
The Stars are a team that surprised many, and I am one on that list as well! Moreover, they even managed to win game 1 of this series and showed great tactical discipline. However, they quickly realized that they are facing a very strong Vegas team as they were blanket in game 2 with a score of 3-0. Yet, this is a team that has a lot of qualities as they showed that in the series against Colorado. And in a similar fashion, they managed to beat the Golden Knights in Game 3 of this series. The Stars are the real deal this season. I am sure that there will be more surprises from them this year.

The Golden Knights need to bounce back. They must win this game and they have enough offensive firepower to do that. The Stars are a great team but I think that they will have a hard time in this game. Take Vegas in this one.
