Golden Knights vs. Oilers Best Bets

Monday, May 8, 2023 - 8:30PM EST

PICK: Edmonton Oilers Win & Over 5.5 (+125)

The Western Conference semifinals shift to Edmonton as the Oilers host the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 3. Edmonton is coming off a convincing 5-1 win on Saturday night in Las Vegas. The Oilers' Power Play stayed hot as they went three for six and scored two first period Power Play goals leading to a four-goal opening frame. Edmonton's Power play is clicking at 58% in the playoffs thus far and is a difference maker game in and game out.

I like the Oilers to continue their momentum they gained after a Game 2 win as they head home for Game 3. Their offense is simply too much for Vegas to handle. It is also important to note the goaltending situation for the Golden Knights. Brossiot is a career back up and although he has played well, the more he plays the more he will get exposed. I like the Oilers to win this game so I'll pair it with the Over 5.5 (which has hit in every meeting this season) at a plus money price.

BET: Edmonton Oilers Win & Over 5.5 (+125) with BetMGM.
