The Edmonton Oilers and Vegas Golden Knights meet on Sunday night in the NHL for an all-important, Pacific Division battle. This is the 2nd of 4 meetings this season, and these are crucial points considering these two are neck and neck in the standings. To get you set for this huge game, we have provided you our expert Oilers vs. Golden Knights prediction.

Edmonton’s offense has been a massive piece in their game, and has been a threat in the league for years. They are averaging 3.54 goals per game, which is 3rd overall in the NHL, and they own the league’s top power play at 33.1%. Vegas’ inconsistent and mediocre defensive efforts will likely struggle against this elite offense. However, Vegas has the tools to match or even surpass that high offense. They are not as highly ranked in goals per game as Edmonton is, but they have shown elite offensive numbers as well, scoring 3.27 per game and achieving a 26.1% power play. Edmonton’s defending abilities have been even worse than Vegas’, as they are in the depths of the NHL with a 3.38 goals against average. These two also own an overall team save percentage of .880, which is tied for 2nd-last in the league… not good. We saw a high-scoring, 7-goal game in their last meeting, and I expect a lot of offense in this 2nd installment. For our Oilers vs. Golden Knights prediction, take the over 6.5.
