Oilers -129
We’re on the Oilers ML here as the series shifts into LA for Game 3. The teams split the first two games in Edmonton as the Kings stole home ice with a 5-4 overtime win in Game 2. The Oilers are still the better team and we’ll see that here in Game 3. They had little issues when it came to playing on the road this season, so this environment in LA will be nothing new for them. The Oilers are going to score their fair share of goals as they averaged over 3.5 gpg during the regular season. The key for them is to get back to their good defensive ways. They only gave up 2.88 gpg during the regular season which was one of the best marks in the league. They’re going to put the clamps down defensively in Game 3 as they’ve allowed far too many rebounds and shots on net. Look for this game to be dominated possession wise by Edmonton and for them to put an emphasis on controlling the puck in the Kings zone. This is a nice spot and good value on Edmonton.
