Los Angeles Kings vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction & Picks - NHL
by Will Chace | in NHL Picks
The Edmonton Oilers jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the 2nd period to cruise to a 7-4 victory in the first game of their series against the Los Angeles Kings. The hosts put up 44 shots against opposing goaltender Cam Talbot amidst the onslaught, leaving no doubt as to who deserves to sit one game up in the opening round. Zach Hyman represented a significant chunk of those shots, with 9 of his shots ending on goal including 3 finding the ultimate target. His line, along with Connor McDavid, Evan Bouchard, Leon Draisatl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, were the damage-doers in the 7-goal performance from Edmonton. The high-flying Oilers will hope their offensive output leaks into the second game, as a 2-0 advantage will be a strong one in this Western Conference battle. Yet replicating such a product will not come so easy, especially in the Stanley Cup playoffs where goals are notoriously hard to come by.

Our Los Angeles Kings vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction
Edmonton has always been an offensively-focused team, but they outdid themselves on Monday night. Now right back to it on Wednesday against a Kings outfit that allowed the 3rd-fewest goals in the league, we suppose their team total is a bit high. Edmonton should return to normalcy and see some regression after such an outburst in the first game. We will fade the trend here, making our Los Angeles Kings vs Edmonton Oilers prediction: Edmonton under 3.5 goals (-125) at BetMGM.
