Oilers vs Golden Knights Preview, Parlay Predictions
Leg 1: Golden Knights ML
We’re backing Vegas to bounce back on home ice tonight. This is a must-win for the Golden Knights, as they can’t afford to head back to Edmonton down 2-0. They outplayed the Oilers early in Game 1 but failed to protect a 2-0 lead.
I expect Vegas to come out with a chip on their shoulder and control this game from start to finish. The Golden Knights have been one of the best home teams in the NHL straight up (SU) this season, and I’m betting on them to respond tonight.
Leg 2: Jack Eichel 3+ Shots On Goal
Eichel has just one playoff goal so far, but he’s been getting his looks. He’s cashed this prop in four of his last five games, and with Vegas needing a strong response, Eichel should see plenty of ice time and have enough volume to hit this mark.
