Edmonton Oilers vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction

The Edmonton Oilers should break out of this funk sooner than later, they’re at home and the more talented team. The Oilers should be decent-sized favorites. However, we’ve also seen cup hangovers with previous teams, so maybe there is something here and the struggles will continue. Regardless, I’m not laying -200 prices with an Oilers team that’s stuck in the mud offensively and is getting little to nothing defensively.

Skinner and Packard have been horrible through three games. The Flyers have also won 3 of the last 6 games against the Oilers, cashing big underdog prices in all 3 wins. Give me the road dog as more of a fade of the Oilers than anything else.
