Golden Knights vs Oilers NHL Same Game Parlay Picks 5/10: Bet Draisaitl (+100) to Score
After being held without a point through three periods, Edmonton stars Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid combined for the winning goal in overtime on Thursday as the Oilers won twice in Vegas to take a 2-0 lead in their Stanley Cup Playoff series.
The BetUS sportsbook has listed the Oilers as the favorite in their last 21 home playoff games with Edmonton winning 14 of those matchups. Vegas has won 11 of its 17 road games during that stretch.
The NHL betting odds have Edmonton at -135 to grab a commanding 3-0 lead in the series. The Golden Knights are priced at -115 to snap a four-game losing streak to the Oilers.
Let’s check out some best NHL player prop bets today for Game 3 in the Golden Knights vs Oilers series. The NHL futures odds have McDavid and Draisaitl among the top Conn Smythe Trophy candidates.
Golden Knights vs Oilers Score Prediction
Edmonton is 9-0 outright, but just 5-4 on the puck line in its last nine games as a home favorite. Vegas has dropped its last five games as a road underdog. That is something to consider for those who bet on the NHL.
Edmonton (+325) has the shortest odds of winning the Stanley Cup with Vegas now at +1800 in the championship odds. Score prediction: Oilers 4, Golden Knights 2.

Don’t be surprised to see the Oilers play Draisaitl and Connor McDavid together early and often as the last thing Edmonton wants to do is to give the rival Golden Knights hope that they can dig out of an 0-2 hole in the series. When making NHL picks, go with Draisaitl at +100 to have 1+ goals.
Leon Draisaitl 1+ Goals (+100)

Jack Eichel 1+ Assists (-143)
Eichel made NHL news with a goal and seven assists in his last four games. He has assisted on four of the six goals scored by the Golden Knights in this series. He will have to bring it on Saturday in the biggest game of the season for the Golden Knights.
Even though Eichel didn’t record a point in the two games in Edmonton during the regular season, consider the -143 odds for Eichel to have 1+ assists in the NHL prop picks.

Edmonton Oilers Moneyline (-135)
Vegas does have a win in Edmonton this season. However, it happened back in November. Now there are questions surrounding the availability of reliable defenseman Brayden McNabb after he was injured on a controversial no-call just 17 seconds before Edmonton scored in overtime in Game 2.
“It’s a can opener trip, it’s a dangerous play.”

Vegas played better in Game 2 than in the series opener. Still, it’s hard to pick against Edmonton at home when making NHL parlay picks.

Golden Knights vs Oilers Under 6.5 (+105)
The last three Golden Knights vs Oilers games with at least seven goals scored were won by the Oilers. It is pretty clear that the Golden Knights do not want to be trading goals with a team featuring McDavid and Draisaitl.
Just one of the previous seven games between the teams landed over the sports betting odds total before Edmonton’s 5-4 win in Game 2. I recommend taking the +105 odds for the game to land under 6½ goals.
