Connor McDavid reportedly will not play tonight and that alone is worth playing Under 6.5 on the Oilers -- plus, No. 1 Knights goaltender Adin Hill is potentially returning from injury. One of their top forwards, Chandler Stephenson (47 points), is in doubt.

In its Affirmed vs. Alydar-like battle with the Kings for third place in the Pacific Division, VGK got some help from an unlikely source as the Ducks knocked off LA last night, providing a lane for Vegas to move into third. Defense, however, has to be much better than the past two games when allowing ten goals across the last four periods of play in a pair of losses, and Adin Hill is expected to return in the net for the first time since March 23. Edmonton's offensive prowess is well-documented, and the Oilers' goal-scoring capabilities rarely waver, having netted at least four goals in five of the past seven games. Play VGK-Oilers "Over"

This line opened at -150 and has since dropped on news that Connor McDavid might be out. The Oilers have a very deep team, with three other players (Draisaitl, Hyman, and Bouchard) ranked in the top 46 in points per game. Vegas has no players in the top 50 and is dealing with numerous injuries. The Golden Knights are just 10-11 since Marc Stone (53 points in 56 games) was injured on Feb. 20th. Edmonton is ranked third in shots against and has a +414 shot differential, while Vegas is ranked 17th in shots against with a +35 shot differential. The Oilers are ranked fifth in Face-off win percentage, while Vegas is ranked 19th. Edmonton is determined to surpass Vancouver for top seed.
