Randy’s Free Pick

The San Jose Sharks cant win on the road and their defensive effort is horrible most nights. The Vegas Golden Knights are usually trustworthy on their home ice, and they’ve owned the Sharks over the years. Only option for me is to side with Vegas and the PL for max betting value.
