Kings vs Oilers NHL Prediction, Picks and Prop Bets April 27: Go with Edmonton to Win, McDavid to Deliver

Thanks to Edmonton’s four-goal third period, Game 3 in the Kings vs Oilers series had a little more scoring than anticipated. Hopefully, you jumped out our same game parlay picks with Edmonton winning outright and the game landing over, while Connor McDavid and Adrian Kempe delivered in the NHL prop picks.

Edmonton is priced at -135 to even the series, with +180 odds on the -1.5 puck line. Los Angeles is priced at +115 to return home with a 3-1 series lead. Ten of the last 11 playoff games between the Kings and the Oilers went over the sports betting odds total.

Kings vs Oilers Score Prediction

Now we have a series after the Oilers snapped a four-game losing streak to the Kings, thanks to six Edmonton players having at least two points in the 7-4 victory. Even though the Oilers have lost three of their last four games when coming off a multi-goal win, I can’t pick against McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and the Oilers when making picks for the best NHL prop bets today.

The odds of winning the Stanley Cup went from +2500 to +1400 for Edmonton after the Game 3 win. Los Angeles is now at +1000 in the NHL futures championship odds.

Score prediction: Oilers 4, Kings 3.

McDavid only had four shots on goal in Game 3 as eight different Oilers recorded at least three shots. He made NHL news when he assisted on the first goal of the game and added an empty-net tally to lead Edmonton to a huge victory. Go with McDavid at +106 to have 2+ points.

Kings vs Oilers Moneyline Pick

The 7-4 final was not a true indication of how competitive Game 3 was. The Kings led by a goal heading into the third period before the Oilers delighted the home fans with a four-goal final period. That factors into the NHL parlay picks we’re making for Game 4. When looking at the NHL schedule, the home team has won each of the first three games in the series after the road team was victorious three times in the 2024 playoff series. Take the Oilers to win at home and even the series.

Bet on Edmonton Oilers (-135)

Kings vs Oilers Over/Under Pick

The goalies have been making NHL news for all the wrong reasons in this series. Darcy Kuemper of the Kings has a goals-against average of 4.04 and a .859 save percentage. The two Edmonton goalies have been even worse. Calvin Pickard did get the win in Game 3 despite allowing four goals. The sports betting odds total is at 6 for Game 4. When making your NHL picks, go with another Kings vs Oilers playoff clash to land over.
