Oilers vs Golden Knights prediction
Oilers vs Golden Knights best bet: Zach Hyman Over 0.5 points (-135)
Zach Hyman has a point in three of his last five games and 17 points in 20 career games against the Vegas Golden Knights.
I’m expecting the Edmonton Oilers to score in bunches tonight, especially with Vegas struggling down the stretch, allowing four goals in three of their last four games.
One reason for Vegas’ struggles lately has been a poor penalty kill, which is not ideal with the league-leading Oilers power play coming to town on a three-game scoring streak.

Oilers vs Golden Knights same-game parlay
The Oilers blue liner leads all NHL defensemen with 80 points, 61 of which are assists. He’s also registered an assist in 12 of his last 15 games
I’ll actually back the Oilers to win tonight, too. They’re 8-2 on the moneyline in the last 10 meetings against Vegas, and the Golden Knights have lost four of their last five.
