Edmonton at Anaheim

img10:00 PM Eastern

Edmonton has yet to play well in its Stanley Cup series against the Ducks. The Oilers are lucky to be tied 1-1 in the series. Special teams have hurt the Oilers. The Ducks have three power-play goals on five chances, and the Oilers are 0-for-6 on the power play and even gave up a short-handed goal. Superstar Connor McDavid has yet to produce a point. Expect a much sharper and more focused performance from the Oilers as the series shifts to Anaheim. Edmonton had the No. 1 power play during the regular season and gave up the ninth fewest shots on net. McDavid entered this series having scored 128 points in 75 playoff games during the previous four years. Leon Draisaitl and Zach Hyman both just returned from injuries. They should be more in sync now. Even with a 6-4 Game 2 upset road win this past Wednesday, the Ducks are only 3-9 in their last 12 games. Anaheim ranks 29th defensively. The Ducks have allowed four or more goals in 10 of their last 12 games, but will be more focused defensively at home. Edmonton has given up only three goals during its past two road games. Take the Oilers and the UNDER.
