Edmonton Oilers vs. Los Angeles Kings Game 5 betting picks and predictions

Things weren’t looking good for the Oilers when they fell in an 0-2 hole heading into Game 3, but back-to-back home wins have them right back in this series. However, they’ll have to find a way to at least win one game in Los Angeles, which will be no easy task.

The Kings posted a league-best 31-6-4 record at home during the regular season, and that success translated into two victories in the first two games at Crypto.com Arena in this series.

Phillip Danault has been an unlikely source of offense for the Kings of late, recording at least one point in six straight games dating back to the regular season while playing on the third line and second power-play unit. He’s registered seven points in this series while recording three multi-point games, and there’s still tremendous value at +120 for him to record a point on Tuesday. The 32-year-old center amassed 43 points in 80 games for the Kings during the regular season, including two assists in four games against the Oilers, so his recent production is very surprising.

Just like the Wild-Golden Knights series, each of the four playoff games between the Oilers and Kings have soared over the posted total. As a result, Tuesday’s clash between these teams has a rare 6.5-goal total for a playoff game. In a pivotal Game 5, you’d have to expect things to tighten up after four games of offensive fireworks.

Pick: Under 6.5 Total Goals (-120)
