The Edmonton Oilers are coming off a disappointing loss, but one thing that stood out was their strong first period. With Pittsburgh often starting games slow, our NHL picks expect Edmonton to come out flying.
Edmonton has scored first in three of its last five games while Pittsburgh has done so just twice in its last nine outings, so we’ll likely see the Oilers own the first period once again.While I’ll look for the Oilers to win the opening frame, I’ll also take them on the moneyline as the clear favorite on paper.

At the other end of the ice, Draisaitl and McDavid have been lighting up the score sheet through the start of this month, combining for 14 points in just four games. The pair racked up a goal and four assists vs Pittsburgh last weekend and should continue its scoring ways against a Pens defense that’s allowed four or more goals in four of their last five outings.
