Oilers: I’m taking the Oilers to win Game 2 at home, priced at -180. Honestly, the Oilers -1.5 puck line might be the better play at +130, considering they’ve covered the line in 10 of their last 12 games.

In 18:40 of 5-on-5 action, McDavid had a CF% of 57.50%. If he hovers around that number again in Game 2, he'll clear this point line.
I’ll also ride with McDavid's linemate, Matthew Savoie, to pick up a point tonight at a plus-money value. Since being elevated to the top line, he’s averaging 0.75 points per game in his last 12 contests alongside the superstar.
The Oilers are 4-0 to the Over on their team total against the Ducks this season, averaging 5.0 goals per contest. Additionally, Anaheim struggled down the stretch defensively, allowing four or more goals in nine of its last 11 games.
Leon Draisaitl was the setup man on two goals in Game 1, but I expect some finish from the big German tonight. Not only does Draisaitl lead all NHLers with 41 playoff goals since 2021-22, but he has 16 goals in his last 17 games against the Ducks.
The Edmonton Oilers have covered the second-period puck line in 17 of their last 25 games (+10.20 Units / 30% ROI). Find more NHL betting trends for Ducks vs. Oilers.
