You would want a medium blade in the 60 tooth range. You didn't say whether end cut or rip, so we don't know if you are talking cut off saw or table saw. Also good advice is free, so here goes. Cut from the back side of the flooring when possible. The aluminum oxide coating on the flooring dulls blades quite quickly.

It will be an end cut. I am looking to replace a plank and dont have any that are the correct length.

If it is an end cut that will be hidden by the base/shoe molding, it won't matter much. I thought you were laying a bunch of sf of flooring.
