NHL Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions: Avalanche vs. Oilers

The Avalanche are coming in decimated by injuries. They’re not just missing players from one part of the lineup, but multiple players from the forward unit, blue line, and behind the net and have now lost five straight.

The Oilers have been offensively incredible, and that’s due to having one of the top-line duos in the league. Leon Draisaitl is second in points with 60, but that’s far behind his linemate Connor McDavid with  75.

The Avs are playing their backup goalie and Edmonton’s goaltending has been subpar this season. Even with the injuries, Colorado will score enough to smash the over.

Pick: Over 6.5 (-114)
