Oilers vs Penguins Pickswise Expert Predictions

Money Line Pick
EDM Oilers Win(-140)

Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers take on Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins for a huge Tuesday night showdown. These teams made headlines just days ago in major trade that included goaltenders Stuart Skinner and Tristan Jarry swapping teams, and now the organizations will battle on the ice. Here is our expert Oilers vs. Penguins prediction.

Both teams desperately need some consistency in their game. However, Pittsburgh’s game has been far more concerning overall. The Penguins have recently blown a number of leads that resulted in losses. Since November 3rd, the Penguins have blown three 3+ goal leads within a third period, which has happened in each of their last two games. Their ability to close games is clearly an issue, one that may spark some doubt to creep into the locker room. As for the Oilers, yes, they are coming off a 4-1 loss to the Montreal Canadiens, but this comes after a 4-0-1 run where they outscored opponents 28-14. Edmonton is clearly playing better than Pittsburgh, and as usual are lead by bigger stars in the matchup, especially with Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin still injured. For our Oilers vs. Penguins prediction, take Edmonton on the money line.
