The only question mark with the Knights is goaltending IMO. But Edmonton’s goaltending is also average at best, so neither team really has the advantage there.

Vegas gets good goaltending they are the better team. They have 6 good dmen with 2 high end dmen. They have 4 good lines with high end players like Eichel and Stone. Their goalies could lose it for them and the Oilers shooters could make them look bad but if they get saves they will win this one.
McDavid and Leon played 27 mins in game 6 against LA. The Oilers got lucky they had 4 nights off between games 5 and 6. If Vegas gets the goaltending they will wear out the Oilers big guns as they still are resorting to playing a very short bench.
