Why The Oilers Will Cover The Spread/Win

The Oilers need to find a way to continue to get a high volume of shots on goal to get the win in this one.  Connor McDavid has continued to play well in the playoffs. He has two goals and 16 assists in the playoffs, with a goal and ten assists on the power play.  McDavid led the team all year, having 32 goals and 100 assists in the regular season, while also having seven goals and 37 assists on the power play.

Draisaitl was second on the team in points this year, having 41 goals and 15 assists. Meanwhile, goals have been coming from Zach Hyman here in the playoffs. He has nine goals so far in the playoffs, while also having two assists. This is not abnormal for Hyman. He led the team with 54 goals in the regular season.  The Oilers have also received help from the blue line in the playoffs, as Evan Bouchard has four goals and 11 assists.  Bouchard was third on the team in points in the regular season, having 82 of them.

Calvin Pickard has now made two straight starts for the Oilers in goal. He has been solid, allowing just five goals in 56 shots in the two games. Still, he is 1-1 in those two games. Last time out, he allowed three goals, but it was on 35 shots.

Final Canucks-Oilers Prediction & Pick

Shot volume is going to be key in this game. None of the goalies in this series have put on amazing performances, but all have had moments of solid play. With all of them, shot volume has been the key. The goalies have not seen their play deteriorate with a high volume of shots, so getting as many on the net will be the only way to score in this one. The Oilers have more firepower to do so in this one and will get the win.
