Oilers vs. Sharks Preview
I think I’m going to make this short and sweet.
If you’ve followed my work and know how I approach picks, you’ll know that this is a relatively cut-and-dry pick.
I love my Oilers overs, and until I’m consistently proven wrong, I’m going to continue loving them. But today’s game feels extra special.
It’ll be the first time that former long-time Oiler Darnell Nurse gets to play his old squad, but not only that, we get to see Sharks superstar Macklin Celebrini against Tristan Jarry.
Someday the Oilers will get quality goaltending. But Jarry has been a total disaster since coming into town, and I expect the Sharks to light him up.
That also goes without saying that Edmonton’s offense remains one of the league’s best.
The Oilers have gotten off to slow starts, but have bounced back and run up the scoreboard. So let’s ride with the over.
Best Bet: Over 6.5 (-118)
