The Edmonton Oilers suffered a bad beat last time out. With a comfortable 4-1 lead, they managed to let their guard down and the Vancouver Canucks came back from 4-1 down to win the game.
Edmonton won’t be happy they let such a lead slip. Which, based on our NHL odds, makes it all the more interesting to play at top-rated sportsbooks.

Edmonton Oilers vs. Vancouver Canucks
Friday, May 10, 2024 – 10:00 PM ET at Rogers Arena
Betting Trends
- Connor McDavid ended the regular season as the top assister in the league and thus far has had the most assists in the playoffs.
- McDavid has had 7 goals and 9 assists in his previous 10 games against the Vancouver Canucks.
McDavid Assist King
Connor McDavid has been the best playmaker in the NHL this season without a doubt. Coming into this game, he has had 5/1/2/1/2 and 1 assist in every playoff game thus far.
The Canucks will have a big job on their hands shutting down this Oilers team who tore through the L.A. Kings, whilst the Canucks made harder work than expected against the Nashville Predators in the previous round.
The Pick
When is it likely we ever see McDavid have 2+ assists at plus money this high? Very rarely. Give us Mcjesus to get some assists on the board in this road matchup for McDavid and the Oilers.
Having scored only one assist in the previous game, we very much like McDavid’s odds of bagging himself two or more assists in this game, which is set to be another high-scoring affair.
