Edmonton Oilers vs Colorado Avalanche Moneyline Prediction

The Oilers showed improved form in recent weeks, but they’re closing the regular season on a sour note, having dropped three of their last four games (W1, L2, OT1), including a 1-0 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday. The team have already clinched a playoff berth, though, and with a W6, L3, OT1 record over their last 10 encounters, they remain in a solid position overall.

The Avalanche have not only clinched the top seed in the Western Conference, but also secured the best record in the regular season with 115 points (W52, L16, OT11) and two games remaining. The Avs are coming off a 3-2 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights, but have still won three of their last five (L1, OT1) while posting a strong W6, L3, OT1 record over their last 10 outings.

Both teams will be without their star players, as Leon Draisaitl is sidelined for the Oilers and Cale Makar won’t be available for the Avalanche. There’s very little separating these sides, but the Avs have more depth across the board and have also won their last two visits to this venue. It promises to be a tight contest, but expect Colorado to come out on top as they look to end the regular season on a sizzling note.

Edmonton Oilers vs Colorado Avalanche Player Prop

Even if the Oilers find themselves on the losing end in this contest, Connor McDavid remains a strong candidate for a dominant performance. He’s set to finish the season as the league’s top scorer, and he might be looking to extend his lead over Nathan MacKinnon, who had been in a tight race with him all season long.

McDavid went pointless in the loss to the Kings on Saturday, but he posted five points (three goals, two assists) against the San Jose Sharks on April 8 in his previous outing. With 18 points (eight goals, 10 helpers) over his last 10 appearances, look for McDavid to end the regular season on a hot streak. He also has three points (two goals, one assist) in two games against Colorado this season.

Edmonton Oilers vs Colorado Avalanche Same Game Parlay

This is a matchup between two of the NHL’s best offences. The Avalanche rank first in the league in goals per game (3.70), while the Oilers are fifth (3.44). Goals are pretty much a given every time these two rivals meet.

Even though Colorado also boast the best defence in the league (2.47 goals against per game), the previous two head-to-head meetings have featured at least seven goals. Given the level of offensive talent on display, there’s little reason to expect a different script here.

We’re also backing two elite Avalanche contributors to make an impact. Martin Necas has been in outstanding form, leading the team in goals (three) and points (seven) over their last five contests. He’s in the midst of his best season to date and is one point shy of reaching the 100-point threshold for the first time in his career.

Meanwhile, MacKinnon should find the back of the net, especially if the Avalanche win. Aside from leading the league in goals with 52, which also happens to be a career-best mark for him, the star centre has scored two goals in two meetings with the Oilers this season.
