Our Oilers vs. Red Wings predictions are high on the Edmonton offense, specifically Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on the top line.
It's been tough sledding for Edmonton's biggest goal-scoring threats, but that could change tonight against the bad Red Wings defense.
McDavid and Hyman are piling up quality looks on a nightly basis, but the puck just hasn’t gone in. Detroit’s team defense has been horrific in the early going. It ranks 30th in shot suppression at 5-on-5 and dead last in shot share, meaning the Red Wings are giving up a lot more than they’re generating.
With Nugent-Hopkins surrounded by elite players poised to break out offensively and a steady dose of minutes coming against a dreadful defensive side, I love his chances of picking up an assist in this game.Hyman sits tied for ninth in the NHL with 4.9 expected goals generated. Every single player in front of Hyman has found the back of the net at least three times, with seven of them piling up four or more.
The Oilers can look forward to a healthy edge in opportunities. With much better players taking them, the Oilers are well-positioned to get another win.get up to $1,500 bonus bets back: Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
