The Oilers trail the Vegas Golden Knights by four standing points as we wind down the NHL regular season. The Edmonton Oilers have 99 points and will be hungry for a road win tonight as they could close the gap to just two. The Kings are 2-2 in their last four games and the offense has scored just eight times in the four games, but the defense has been solid. Edmonton has kicked it up a notch and is playing their best hockey of the season at the right time as the Oilers are a sizzling 9-1 in their last 10 with four straight wins. Edmonton is averaging 4.8 goals per contest in the 10 games and the defense has recorded two straight shutouts. I like Edmonton in this one.
