Toronto Maple Leafs vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 02/03/26

Tuesday night in the NHL brings us a major matchup between Auston Matthews and the Toronto Maple Leafs, and Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers. When these teams met in December, Edmonton embarrassed Toronto in a 6-3 win. How will their second and final meeting of the season play out? Here is our Maple Leafs vs. Oilers prediction.

Toronto could be heating up, as they have won two games in a row and are trying to save a dying season. However, they are facing an excellent team in Edmonton on home ice that hasn’t played since Saturday. What I expect to see in this one is a ton of goals. With the talents of Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Auston Matthews, and William Nylander leading the charge for their respective teams, the Maple Leafs and Oilers are offensive dynamos in the NHL. Edmonton currently scores at the NHL’s third-best rate of 3.45 goals per game, which will be a major issue for Toronto’s 6th-worst goals against average of 3.41 per game. However, Edmonton hasn’t been much better defensively, giving up 3.25 goals per game. This matchup also showcases the NHL’s best power play of 31.2% owned by the Edmonton Oilers. We saw a total of nine goals in their first meeting this season, and I expect another exciting game in what should have a lot of spirit and drama.
