Money Line Pick
EDM Oilers Win(-110)

Both the Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings are looking to get back on track after suffering losses on Wednesday. The Oilers fell to the Ducks by a score of 6-5, while the Kings lost to the Golden Knights 6-4. The Kings have struggled at home all season long, as they own a less-than-ideal 8-12-7 record on home ice at Crypto.com Arena. Things won’t get any easier going up against Connor McDavid and company in this one.

The Kings suffered some tough injury news over the Olympic break, as winger Kevin Fiala sustained a lower leg fracture early on in the Olympic tournament in Italy. He has already been ruled out for the remainder of this season, and is slated to miss a significant chunk of next season as well. His loss is a big one, as Fiala was second on the team with 40 points on 18 goals and 22 assists through 56 games. For a team that has struggled to find consistent offense all season long, not having Fiala on the ice puts Los Angeles in a tough spot. The Kings rank 29th in the NHL scoring 2.56 goals per game, and now their top line and top power play is down a major piece of the puzzle. It’s very likely that keeping up with Edmonton’s scoring attack is a challenge to tough to overcome in this one. Back the Oilers on the road.
