Oilers Score with the Best of Them
Nobody in the league scores more goals than the Edmonton Oilers led by the favorite in the Hart Trophy odds, Connor McDavid and his running mate, Leon Draisaitl. As a team, they’ve averaged 3.74 goals per game this season, for top spot in the league.
One of the reasons for their stellar offensive production is their explosive power play that clicks at a 32.0% rate. No other team checks in at above 30%, a mark that’s only been achieved four times since the league has been keeping track of this statistic.
Best Single-Season Power Play Percentage
| Team | Year | Games Played | PP % |
|---|---|---|---|
| Edmonton Oilers | 2022-23 | 50 | 32.0 |
| Montreal Canadiens | 1977-78 | 80 | 31.9 |
| New York Islanders | 1977-78 | 80 | 31.4 |
| New York Islanders | 1978-79 | 80 | 31.2 |
All those goals with the man advantage have helped push the Oilers over the betting line in the NHL odds 31 times this campaign. They’ve provided a 26.35% return on investment if you’ve picked them to hit the over in all of their games, the second best ROI of any squad.
After sitting on the periphery of the Western Conference playoffs for much of the year, their recent run has fans clamoring for a Pacific Division title while they look to shorten their Stanley Cup odds.

Red Wings Betting Outlook
As the season has trudged along, the Red Wings game has gone downhill. Since the beginning of December, they have just 10 wins in 26 games and are 25th overall in the league during that span.
They’ll have their hands full dealing with two of the top contenders in the Rocket Richard trophy odds. McDavid and Draisaitl have combined for 70 goals this year, 12 more than any other duo in the league. Last time these teams met, it was a firewagon-style 7-5 Edmonton victory.

The home team has taken each of the last four head-to-head meetings between these two sides. Unfortunately for the Red Wings, home ice hasn’t been much of an advantage for them this year. Only four teams in the East have fewer wins as hosts this season.
Oilers vs Red Wings Pick and Prediction
A couple other recent trends you should be aware of when betting on this game. While their defense looked improved at the beginning of the year, since the start of December, the Red Wings have given up 3.42 goals per outing, 10th worst in the league.
Also, in that span of time, their penalty killing percentage is just 74.0%, which puts them 26th in the league. They’ll need to avoid the penalty box as much as possible against Edmonton’s lethal power-play unit.
Oilers vs Red Wings Same-Game Parlay Picks
| Pick | Odds |
|---|---|
| Edmonton Oilers Moneyline | -165 |
| Over 6.5 Goals | -125 |
| PARLAY ODDS | +180 |
Before the break, the Oilers were really finding another gear. Of their eight games prior to the interruption, Edmonton had won six by two goals or more.
We’re expecting a lot of goals here, but our prediction is to grab the +150 odds and take the Oilers on the puck line against a Red Wings team that just isn’t at the same level.
