Odds
Edmonton is listed as a -195 home favorite while Vegas is a +165 road underdog. The total for this game is set at 6.5 goals.
Matchup History
Vegas’ 4-3 win over Edmonton in game five on Friday made it eight straight head-to-head meetings between these two teams without back-to-back winners.
Trends
Vegas is 23-9 in their last 32 games overall and 20-7 in their last 27 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 4-1 in their last 5 games overall. Edmonton is 12-3 in their last 15 home games and 54-21 in their last 75 home games while the under is 4-1 in their last 5 games against a team with a winning percentage above .600.
Pick
I’m rolling with Edmonton here. These two teams have traded wins back and forth all series and I look for this game to be no different. Edmonton was floored after letting one slip away in game five and missed their chance to close out here, but I look for the Oilers to regroup and force a game 7. Give me the Oilers here.
